Steve Irwin, better known as The Crocodile Hunter, was an Australian who loved animals, and in his show, sees how close he can get to the dangerous creatures, namely crocodiles. As millions of people watch his show, his "Crikey" catchphrase is known worldwide. He was in trouble once for feeding a crocodile in a public show whilst holding his then infant son Bob on his other arm. While filming a documentary called The Ocean's Deadliest on September 4, 2006, he was fatally stung in the heart by a short-tail stingray, the third death from such creature reported in Australian history. Now, he gets to meet the great crocodile of the sky.
Some may view this tragedy as Steve being yet another victim of The Curse (despite his last pre-death appearance being in Go Godzilla!, which was released almost a year before Irwin's death), though it was most likely simply a result of his dangerous lifestyle.
