Wasn't overly familiar with his programmes, but he seemed to be the archetypal Aussie.

Loved the South Park depiction of him. "Wow, that crock looks really angry----now I'm going to stick my thumb up its butt."

Steve R. are you going for some sort of slaphead nomination on these forums .... exactly what harm did this guy do to you for you to make the throw away comments over this freak death??
Jacques you don't exactly come out of this smelling of roses either, just hope you guys don't lose anybody close to you and come on this forum looking for sympathy.

A truely sad loss, Steve had an infectious zest for his subject and an enthusiasm that was totally genuine.
Conservationism is a poorer day without this great man at the helm.
RIP mate

Re: Some quotes

Post by Ace »

BECAUSE he was so Aussie and so passionate, just about everything Steve Irwin said made for good quotes. Here's some of the best:

"Yeah, for some reason parrots have to bite me. That's their job. I don't know why that is. They've nearly torn my nose off. I've had some really bad parrot bites."

"Crikey means gee whiz, wow!"

"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."

"Because when they strike it can be that quick that if they're within range, you're dead, you're dead in your tracks. And his head weighs more than my body so it's WHACK!"

"I bled a lot. I got hit across the face. We couldn't film for seven days. I got hit, whacked, underwater, across the face. I finished the shot, got into the boat and blood started coming out."

"I get called an adrenaline junkie every other minute, and I'm just fine with that."

"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."

"I mean, these are all just little pink bits here (pointing at his arm) and are just curing up now. I've been recently filming a nine-and-a-half-foot female crocodile I had to catch. Oh, man, she bit me up! That was a mistake."

"But I put my life on the line to save animals."

"Every cent we earn from Crocodile Hunter goes straight back into conservation. Every single cent."

"Herein lies our problem. If we level that much land to grow rice and whatever, then no other animal could live there except for some insect pest species. Which is very unfortunate."

"I am optimistic globally. So many scientists are working frantically on the reparation of our planet."

"I believe our biggest issue is the same biggest issue that the whole world is facing, and that's habitat destruction."

"I believe that education is all about being excited about something. Seeing passion and enthusiasm helps push an educational message."

"I sincerely believe that there's room for cutting down trees for forestry and grazing, so as we all get to eat. Everyone has to compromise."

"My belief is that what comes across on the television is a capture of my enthusiasm and my passion for wildlife."

"My dad taught me from my youngest childhood memories through these connections with Aboriginal and tribal people that you must always protect people's sacred status, regardless of the pest."

"No, snakes are no problem. I'd go to any country, anywhere, any snakes, not a problem."

"See, I've always seen Jacques Cousteau as a hero, mate. He's a legend ? like my dad, just a legend. And so what he did for conservation in the '60s through the '70s was just phenomenal."



"Sharks, I've been self-trained as well, and crocodiles, naturally. I've been catching them since I was nine. No problem."



"Since I was a boy, from this house, I was out rescuing crocodiles and snakes. My mum and dad were very passionate about that and, I was lucky enough to go along."



"So fear helps me from making mistakes, but I make lot of mistakes."

"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."

"Yeah, for some reason parrots have to bite me. That's their job. I don't know why that is. They've nearly torn my nose off. I've had some really bad parrot bites."

"When I talk to the camera, mate, it's not like I'm talking to the camera, I'm talking to you because I want to whip you around and plunk you right there with me."

"Where I live if someone gives you a hug it's from the heart."

"You know, I'm Australian, and we have got the worst sense of humour. We are cruel to each other."
