Now its the 17/6/2024, something in my today just didn't feel right and i needed to remember the times i would come home from school from school when i was i little guy and watch the crocodile hunter DVDs my mum would buy me. but i found myself here after another Steve Irwin video on RU-vid, i looked up to Steve as my dad because, well i didn't have one as a kid and he was the most inspiring Australian there was his energy and love for nature really flowed through my body and me who i am today, i wish i could thank him and ill never forget the day i first watched this video after my mum told be that he had passed away i don't think i ever looked or felt the same about the way we treat animals and more importantly their homes i wish everyone could have seen Steve the same way his wife did but ill always hold Steve's ways and just everything he did for us close to me, he was the most influential person in my upbringing and ill never forget him because he was a Bloody Ledged, Rest easy Steve.
To this day I don’t think I’ve ever cried as hard as I did when Steve died, we will miss u mate and we will never forget what you’ve done for all of us RIP brother
even now in 2024 i get so choked up at Steve's dad and what bindi said this never made me cry so hard but mainly for steve's father no parent has to go through the pain of burying their child first

Today marks the 15th anniversary of Steve's death and his legacy lives on. It lives on with his family, his wife Terri, their kids Bindi and Robert, Bindi's husband Chandler and of course, their daughter Grace. He may be gone but his love for animals and wildlife will never change. Steve lives with all of us.
It’s a shame that Steve never got the chance to see his kids grow up into the amazing adults they are now. He would be so proud of the legacy he created
How fucked that his kids in the background never got to grow up with Steve he was such an amazing father and person. They missed out on so much, I can’t imagine how much they miss him
I remember as it was yesterday. As a child I loved watching Steve's programs on the TV, an old box thing me and my sister was given my our grand-grand mother. I heard of the news and I had so hard in believing it. But sadly, it was true. I live in Norway so for me the live sent memorial was quite late but my mother let me stay awake longer because she knew how much it meant to me. I cried and I cried watching this at maybe 11-12 years old. Steve Irwin was a fantastic man. Not only was he a great man, but an excellent teacher. He taught me the importance of every, single, living creature in the biosphere. How they all have a function, either as prey or predator. When people tell me, if they could wish all the spiders, or snakes or what it be away overnight I just smile with a chill down my spine. For every such creature has an instrumental role in the grand play that is our nature. They are are all unique and fantastic in their own ways, and I will forever be grateful to Steve in instilling that sense in a small, Norwegian boy who was bullied relentlessly. He was my friend, albeit only on the screen. I miss him. I'm sure we all do here, in this comment section. I come back to this video every few years and I know I'm writing a fuckin' essay here but... his death still weighs heavily on me. I've not done this before but I should've. Steve died doing what he loved so much. Let his life be an example. Understand nature, in all of its grizzly, primal way. Respect it. It is our duty as the dominant species of this world to know our own boundaries and allow nature to have its place too. I miss you Steve. Even after 15 years, I still miss you. The things you achieved and those you never had a chance to. Rest well you mad Aussie.
My heartfelt empathy to his family and friends. Some people are just unforgettable and I can say in all honesty Steve Irwin is one of them. He was very courageous and devoted to wildlife to him it wasn't a job you could see that he loved to do it. ❤️RIP God bless your lovely family and friends. Amen
I cried for weeks after Steve Irwin died. Just watching him on TV he was like your best friend. I felt like I lost part of my family. What a wonderful man A Man Who Loved wildlife and they loved him. And Steve's audiences were massive. Everyone just love the crocodile Hunter so full of life and always happy he loves his family. He is surely missed.
Seeing those bushfires last year would've torn him apart. Steve was such a good man, the kind of father I always wished I'd had, growing up. (6/30/2021)
At first when I heard how he died, I thought it was HIS fault for messing with nature that didn't shouldn't be messed with.... Now I know the Stingray didn't mean to kill him, he meant to love Steve :(
This man was my inspiration for reptiles and their conservation snakes and lizards are apart of me my first pet was a Bearded Dragon who I named Steve. He maybe gone but his teachings have brought forth a new generation of wildlife lovers and protectors
