Steve Irwin's manager has revealed the video footage capturing the wildlife expert dying was "shocking".
He said at a press conference today (05.09.06): "It shows that Steve came over the top of the ray and the tail came up, and spiked him here in the chest.
"He pulled it out and the next minute he's gone. The cameraman had to shut down.
"He always pushed himself to the very limits but I thought he was invulnerable and I think he did too. It's a very hard thing to watch because you're actually witnessing somebody die... it's terrible."
The Queensland government is considering a state funeral for Irwin.
Having visited his Zoo in Australia with my own son..(an avid Croc fan)...I too was shocked to hear this sad news...Steve Irwin was the ultimate wildlife warrior...he will be missed..:weepy:
