wierd, i figured he would eventually succumb to a snakebite.

Damn, and I came here to post this too!

[EDIT: Classless comment removed] It's just very ironic that this guy dies from an impaling stingray rather than something like a croc or lion.

Also, on Wiki, something was pulled from his "Death" section... that he was ironically making a documentary on demystifying the stingray.

Well, despite the irony, I feel a bit sad to see him go. He was pretty much the only person on T.V. that would document whatever dangerous animals he had access to.

I was going to post this as well, but at any rate, that is a bummer that he is gone :( :(

**Hitman** · September 4th, 2006

Yeah, he was pretty entertaining. Never heard of anyone dying from a stingray. Sure it's happened before.

Very sad indeed. As passionate as I am about PCs, it doesn't come close to the enthusiasm he displayed towards his craft. Best wishes to his family that he leaves behind:

I posted at the thread you made at Dell Forums... :)

Yeah, he was cool, but really stupid sometimes (cough... holding your 1 yr. old kid when you're in front of a crocodile... cough).
