A Relic From My Childhood ...

A relic from my childhood just died.

I remember some days, coming home from school, and turning on the Discovery channel. I remember watching in joy and terror when Steve Irwin defied death at the hands of different reptiles and other animals.

From Wikipedia:
"On 4 September 2006, Irwin was fatally pierced in the chest by a stingray barb off the Great Barrier Reef in Australia while filming an underwater documentary."

He will be sorely missed.
