Some people might say that Steve Irwin is a crazy SOB with what he does with animals and that it might not be in their best interests… but for all it's worth, I think Steve Irwin was passionate about his work, animals and saving the environment. Irwin dies on Monday. He died doing the thing that he loved most, being up close and personal with his animal friends.
So intribute to the Crocodile Hunter, here are some quotes from the crazy, yet caring, Australian…
"Crikey, mate. You're far safer dealing with crocodiles and western diamondback rattlesnakes than the executives and the producers and all those sharks in the big MGM building."
"The only animals I'm not comfortable with are parrots, but I'm learning as I go. I'm getting better and better at 'em. I really am."
"You know, you can touch a stick of dynamite, but if you touch a venomous snake it'll turn around and bite you and kill you so fast it's not even funny."
"I have no fear of losing my life – if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it."

Dude. I loved him too. There was something really great about his exhuberance for life you know? I feel awful for his family. His kids are so young….
