I found this on youtube and watched all of it. Steve Irwin, that crazy Aussie flirted with danger on film or video. He covers way more than the Komodo and it made me look up his death date. He died almost 10 years ago. This in a way pays tribute to him. [video=youtube;QLIMgXv89VU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLIMgXv89VU[/video]
His movie The Crocodile Hunter was hilarious. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxNfZO--bko The Crocodile Hunter Official Trailer #1 - David Wenham Movie (2002) HD
I just watched the movie online. It was a bit more like a documentary than a movie. Steve's widow is a looker as the female that dropped the dynamite. Kate Beahan I think.
It's very sensationalized. He was almost better known among Americans than he was among Australians. Shame he died. Pretty unlucky to cop a barb in the heart.
The guy was over the top, showed no respect for dangerous animals and paid for it in the end. I have taken the kids to his Australia Zoo on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, he's done an amazing job with his reptile park, the animal enclosures are very clean and extremely well laid out and maintained. Although I'm not a fan because his methods for hunting crocodiles were often irresponsible and cruel, he deserves much credit for what he achieved with his park.
I wonder what he might have felt about those NDE accounts where people report meeting deceased former pets? http://www.near-death.com/experiences/with-pets.html Near-Death Experiences with Deceased Pets and Animals
Cruel and Irresponsible as far as hunting Crocodiles ? you are joking, right ? Crocodiles are like the Terminator, hunter killer units, there is no way to be cruel to them.
All animals, including predators such as crocodiles, lions, tigers, bears and many others should never be treated cruelly. I'm sure there's even a "movement for the humane treatment of Terminator" somewhere
LOL! Former enemies can come to a whole new level of mutual understanding in the higher dimensions of space - time. http://www.near-death.com/archives/ndes/sixwings.html
As a Hunter we do our bests to kill the animal in one clean shot. What really irks me is when it is Bow Season and you get guy's who are not that good shooting an arrow in a deer in it's side and then having to flow the blood trail and maybe sometimes finding the animal or not. AA
You know an African Buffalo is one of the moodiest creatures on the planet. If you wound it, it circles back until he comes up behind you when you're tracking to kill and will ambush you.
Yes....I have read about this and although I have spent time in Africa....in places that believe me...you would NEVER want to go to....I have never hunted in Africa as I just can't kill an animal for sport. As I am an expert in several types of Survival and as well I have taught survival during training in upper Alaska on the Ocean Pack Ice as this was Arctic/Ocean survival and we taught men that if they were so unfortunate as to fall into the water on ocean pack ice they only had a matter of minutes to take off the wet clothing and change it or if they didn't have other cloths how to warm your body in the quickest manner possible and how to dry off asap. Honestly....even though we taught this if a person falls through the ocean pack ice and get's wet....they are SCREWED!! You better hope you have other cloths to change into and you better hope you were not stupid enough to wear your pack on your back when you fell in as we teach them to pull their packs behind them and away from their bodies so if they fall in the water at least their pack will not go with them!!! Anyways.....POLAR BEARS!! I hardly even need to say anything else but....POLAR BEARS!! They are the largest land carnivore on planet Earth and they will track a person down and KILL THEM....absolutely EAT YOU ALIVE as unlike a Lion that kills it's prey first by going for the neck to cut off air supply....a POLAR BEAR is more than happy to keep you very much alive and screaming in agony as he holds you down with one paw and begins stripping the flesh off your bones with the other!!
