Irwin was at Batt Reef, off the remote coast of northeastern Queensland state, shooting a segment for a series called "Ocean's Deadliest" when he swam too close to one of the animals, which have a poisonous barb on their tails, his friend and colleague John Stainton said.
He was 44.

Yeah at first when a mate said he died, i didn't beleive him, when i got home from work i checked out the news and sure enough he did, its a very sad day down here in australiasia.
I always throught it would have been a croc but a stingray, he is survived by his wife Terri, daughter bindy and son Bob.
the world has lost a true animal humanaterien!
RIP Steve - your a wee beauty!

Yea its gay how a sting ray (which has onyl killed one other person in the entire world) would Kill Steve. He has played with snakes, and crocs and then a sting ray kills him. Its still so hard to believe, he was a Hero of Mine, I watched his show all the time, i wonder if they are going to show the documentary ne ways.

yeah that would be good if Terri takes the drivers seat and keeps it going in memory of her late Husband, i know for a fact that Australia Zoo will continue as his business partner in crime Wes is just as much of a man that the legend Steve Irvin but then again when his kids are old enough they might follow in dads footsteps. we will have to wait and find out.
my condulensces go out to Terri, Bindy Bob and his father the original Croc Hunter and of course his friends and fans throughout the entire world.
you will be missed but never forgotten.

If he hadn't pulled out the barb, he would have had a better chance to live....
I have the stingray attack video if anyone cares to see what happened.
