Feeding Crocodiles: Robert Irwin on fame, photography & growing up in a zoo | One Plus One 

Terry has done such an amazing job raising him. He’s so well spoken, so confident and so aware of he is. Yes he reminds us of his father, but there’s so much of Terry in his personality. I’ve enjoyed watching him grow into such an amazing young man and I can’t wait to see the impact he had going forward.

I love how responsive he is! He listens, and is so self-aware, it’s truly a pleasure to listen to his interviews. Great job to the entire Irwin family! I also agree that Terri is an amazing person - all she’s overcome with grace makes her a real inspiration.

This was a very good video on Robert Irwin. So much is made of him being the son of Steve Irwin, but this video shows that he is definitely Terry's son. She raised him, she gave him a role model to look up to, she gave him videos and stories of a father he barely knew to connect to him. Good parents want their children to be better people than they are, and I think Terry deserves a big round of applause for raising her son and daughter to be good people. For TV purposes Steve Irwin came off as a stereo typical male, no doubt there was way more to him than that as he managed to sneak little bits of conservation knowledge into his shows. Terry has used that and more to create a product that pushes conservation and has allowed her children to feel connected to some of the best parts of a father who died way too young. I think Terry is incredible.

Interviewer did a great job. Great questions, and respected Robert and his family.

It's been difficult for me to accept Robert as an individual, and not a Steve clone. This interview has touched me. I'm many years older than Robert, but we share similar passions, and his father was also one of the people who taught me to respect and appreciate crocs and other wild animals. He's a good lad. And his photography is brilliant.

He's a powerhouse, unbelievably eloquent, charming, handsome, polite, funny, always excited, genuine. A hard to find specimen.

Such a bright light, so eloquent, so charismatic, so passionate and genuine. Incredible man. Lots of love and admiration for you Robert and your beautiful family.

Steve would have been so proud of his son. What an amazing young man Robert turned out to be.

As I was watching this interview, I had a big smile on my face because I could see so much of Steve in his son Robert. That same infectious enthusiasm and deep love for the animals. This family is inspiring and I'm sure Steve would be so proud of his children and how they carried on his legacy.

What a lovely young man he is - he speaks like a 25 yr old - and he’s just 18! A very mature, wise young man, who has learnt a lot from his mum and the people around him growing up who were good mates with his Dad. I’m sure Steve would be so very proud of him! But I can’t help but wonder how he would be if his father were still alive. He was so young when his Dad died that he wouldn’t be able to remember the times he’d spent with him, only from watching it back on video. Him and Bindi are so blessed to have all that footage and documentaries to look back on of their Dad, as most children who’ve lost their fathers would not have that. I really hope and pray he meets a beautiful young woman who loves & respects wildlife and crocs, just as much as he does. 😊

I truly hope I have a child just like Robert. An incredibly kind-hearted, joyous soul.

This young man is as amazing as his wonderful dad. God bless you Robert Irwin.

So proud of the young man he has become and what a strong woman his mother is! What a legacy they are leaving on the world!

He's so kind and has so much wisdom for a young man.. so impressed with the man Robert has grown to be. The whole family just astounds me. He speaks so well in this interview and listens and responds and is complimentary to the interviewer, it's just perfect!

the world needs more humans like robert :')

What a brilliant young man! Terri, you have done such a wonderful job in raising your children. The world is in good hands with young people like this.

Probably the most positive thing I’ve seen in a while. I teared up a few times. I hope Robert can carry on his mission!

Robert inherited the same passionate love for wildlife as his father !!!. Handsome young man . Keep on Keeping on ❤️

I adore that family. So kind, so passionate so no nonsense smart. Awesome interview.

earth is blessed to have this family, these teachers. What a wonderful family and accomplishment. Beautiful young man Robert.

Two really remarkable men. I have seen interviews of Robert before but I think Kurt has done a wonderful job of showing us more of Robert than we have ever seen before. Robert is very much his father's son but he has put his own stamp on the person he is. Steve would be so proud and there can be no doubt that his mother is very proud. She has done a wonderful job of making her children the people they are today.

Robert is amazing. He's level headed, well rounded, self aware, respectful, brave etc. I could go on, but he has grown up to be a brilliant young man.

I grew up as a kid watching Steve and even recall little robert as a baby in Steves arms feeding the croc. Its so heartwarming watching him growing up to be a responsible man from a baby. Conservation topics of nature/animals needs to reiterated constantly and this is all our responsibility too.

Robert you are your fathers son, your dad lives within you as you carry out his legacy with your family beside you. Feel proud and be proud as i am proud of you for the man you have become. Wish you and your family all the best and thankyou for the good you do. Cheers Mate👍🍻🇦🇺🐨

he got his dads enthusiastic trait FOR SURE and im alllllll for it! watching him is like watching Steve

I really respect him in this interview - his respect for his mother, his eloquence, and how he really engaged the interviewer and even asked him some question

Such an intelligent, in-touch human being. Thank goodness for people like him and his family.

When you talked about your purpose! One of the most important things in our lives. I gave my son a little frame with a feather in it, with that I said " A soul without a purpose is a feather in the wind!" I live each day by this ♥

Great young fella , absolutely love the passion he shows , gave me tears a few times , gives me faith in the younger generation of True Blue Aussies .

What a beautiful young man, inside and out.

Such a genuine family, their daddy must look down with such pride ❤

Cannot believe he is only 18. When he talked about Terri, it brought tears to my eyes.

One of the best interviews I’ve ever watched!!! ❤

i grew up begging for a cell phone...robert grew up begging to feed a croc

possibly the best interview of anybody i have seen before ,delving but not intrusive well done Kurt

What an articulate, genuine man. His father would be beyond proud. You are fulfilling God's work, keep going mate. Love from the 🇬🇧

This guy can ALWAYS bring a smile to my face. Kudos Robert!!! He gots a spark that is all his own.

Fantastic video; the whole Irwin family including Chandler and Grace are a bunch of beautiful humans; and are so inspiring! To ever meet them one day and see their zoo would be an absolute dream; but until then watching videos like this and seeing impact their making and what encouraging people they are is fantastic!

What a GREAT interview! Thank you.

I love this interview. I loved watching their family!!!! I appreciate everything their family has given, and given and given after all these years. It's a duty and a hardship career to keep going but I see their true love they have from their dad to continue his legacy. I see his eyes and I see his soul how strong he is to keep the face for the world. He is very professional and I believe he has had some challenges in his life as an adult. He's very humble and caring I respect him for him. I don't expect them to be exactly like their dad but I would love to see more of their personality and see them do what they love.

Teri has done a fantastic job raising him into such an incredibly passionate and compassionate lad. I can only image Steve would be bursting with pride at the guy he’s become

What a legacy Steve has left his family and the whole world and for the whole of his family too carry on with his love of all animals is heartwarming and great too watch he would be so proud of them all.

Wow!! At 10 years old he feeds a crocodile!! That’s Insane!! He IS very much Steve’s son!! So proud of this family!! ❤❤❤

So heartwarming to listen to Robert!

Robert is very similar to his dad, almost the same, just a bit more humble which I think does him well.

What a legend, respect all the way to australia❤️🔥

He's is such a light of sunshine in a dark world, he is adorable

Sir Robert Irwin. You Mate are the pinnacle of an Aussie Men. Tough Sensitive Proud Brave Loving and sincere

OH MY GOD!!! I am a special ed teacher in Wisconsin, and I have NEVER EVER heard a young man as confident, caring, well spoken, and...I have no words. I would be proud to be your mother, young man.....

Steve would be so proud

I appreciate Robert for the person he is. Even if he wasn't following his Father's legacy, he stands alone just brilliantly. His energy may be like his Father's sure, but Robert is his own person. He has fun, but he is real. Even makes it clear he is a professional and he really is. At 18 I wasn't anything like Robert. I am in the tech and electronics world, so my Croc could run 220 at 30amps if not even more. Risk is part of the lure of what anyone doing something worthwhile. I think Robert and I would be opposites. My upbringing likely. But imagine growing up as an Irwin. Wow. The responsibility and legacy here. Robert carries it so well. Why? Love. Easy answer for the most complex person whose life has had such a wide dynamic range. I salute Robert Irwin. He is less than 1/3 my age, but I have not grown up, get older yes, grown up? Never. Robert is the best of what a person can be. Never met him personally, but man, would be an honor just to speak with him for say 30 minutes, then let him do what he does best.

What a lovely young man, the apple didn't fall far from the trees. But he is own person, and has a diffent spark. I could have watched them both in this insightful and well worded doco.

OMG hes as animated as his good old Dad !!!! Hes got such an infectious excitement !!!!

Your father and Mother are two of the most Amazing people. Your Dad was The greatest man alive to me when i was a kid watching him on TV. A Real Life Super Hero 🙌🏼

What an absolute champion human being

Love the Irwins, a national treasure of a family for sure. Love your love for animals guys, you all amaze me to this day, truly. 💖🥺

I absolutely adore him. He is simply an incredible human!

Such solid advice about keeping a few real ones who know your true north. A lot of wisdom in such a young lad.

Dang, thank you for pointing out that parents are sooo scrutinized! This is soo true and hard on me- how’d you grow to be so wise, kind, and thoughtful… ❤ you are a gem Robert ❤

I'm am pleasantly surprised, I assumed the mother encouraged a celebrity life and profile for these children, obviously I was wrong! Robert is so mature, so genuine and articulate, huge respect to Terri! 🫂 He is really passionate and inspiring and aware, and grounded, wow! 😯 Respect to Kurt Fearnley too, great interview! 👍🤗👏

He looks so much like Steve, like a spitting image. Even his vocal tone is eerily similar! It's amazing that his children never shyed away from wildlife after losing their father💛💛💛 incredible family! Steve was a big part of my childhood as I'm sure many kids was.

Beautiful interview Robert! Thank you for sharing special moments of your dad’s story, ❤I know you would trade your left arm to have him with you,

I cant get over how well spoken this young lad is! What a great interview! He's so full of life, he doesn't stumble over his words, he's a great speaker! I also had no idea he did photography, amazing!

He's such a good kid.

He is definitely different than his Dad. There are obvious similarities, but he has a little something different in his personality, and he is even cuter than Dad. Very nice,

Yes! Finally!! Been waiting for this upload, thank you! I just hope it will have subtitles later on, even just auto-generated ones, for hard of hearing viewers.

Really good interview!

Robbert is Steve's soul. Bindi is his heart. Terry has done an amazing job with her children and keeping Steve's spirit alive in them. She is an incredible woman and mom. Those kids are incredible people through and through

Wow that was amazing to see i live in England grow up watching Steve be the best man to deal with any sort of animal he know wat they felt and how they acted and to see Robert doing for his dad who he lost at such a young age theres magic inside of him to be one of the greatest man around thanks to Steve the animal god may he rest in peace such a missed bloke. I'm just glad to see robert being the best person around amazing guy

What a braw young laddie is Robert, wonderful Mum & sister.

Love this guy..so proud of him love to meet them.

A BEAUT RIPPA BONZA INTERVIEW ROBERT!! 🙏👏🏼❤️👍MY WORD.....THAT SAME ENTHUSIASM, DRIVE, COMMITMENT, AND PASSION EXPLODING THROUGH THE SCREEN AS STEVE DOES. WONDERFUL

Absolutely an amazing head on his shoulders. Good job Terri - cant imagine the circumstances were easy

I love everything about the Irwins. I hope to meet one of them one day. I share the love of wildlife with them.

Amazing and intelligent Irwin family.

i love robert so much i hope he doesnt leave ad that his partner can understand how ginormous this is for him and his Legacy to take over the Zoo completely and pass it down to the next Irwin generation!

10:20 😭😭😭 That is such a beautiful moment

Magnificent Animal. Please support and protect them. 🐊💗🇦🇺

I hope Robert does fulfill his dream of being a global spokesperson for all the huge issues facing us. What an amazing young man he is! The world is definitely a far better place because he's in it. I wish him all the best and hope his dreams come true.

I love watching all of the Irwin's but Robert has such a good head on his shoulders. I love hearing him talk

Wonderfully crazy, just like his dad 👏👍🏻👍🏻

Incredible interview

I just watched this video (from a year ago). As others have said, listening to Robert, he is such a well-spoken, intelligent, and confident young man. And I really respect his passion for wildlife. It's tragic that he lost his dad at such a very young age (2 years old I think). Unlike his older sister Bindi, I don't imagine Robert would have any actual memories of his father. But, it's obvious, he truly is his father's son. The only thing I don't understand is feeding the crocs!? Obviously, Robert has had a lot of training do this. But one small mishap (even for someone with lots of training) and it could be fatal! Just not worth it as part of any kind of show for visitors to the zoo as it's too dangerous (even for an experienced individual)! But he is wise beyond his years, for sure! And I wish Robert and the rest of the Irwin family much success and happiness in the years ahead!

Love from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️

we love you Robert! 💙🙏🐊🐊🐊🐊

a great aussie american family....love the work they all do to help all animals....😊😊

What a beautiful presence Robert is. ❤️

Robert you hope your dad is proud of you? Mate your Dad is up there bragging on you all day everyday.

He's gonna be a Fantastic Husband and Father i

Go on our Son ! xox

Awesome interview

Great interview

His dad was a staple growing up. Good memories.

Great interview!

Robert is an amazing young man with a beautiful soul and a brave heart filled with love and respect for nature. We need billions like him! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💜💜🧡🧡💚💚💗💗💛💛💙💙

The Next Crocodile Hunter.. You see him in such a rush & push at such a young age, like he knows something we don't, that's scary. Steve was the same way, he had to make sure we understood because he knew he wasn't going to be here for long. Robert is so much like his dad, the fire and passion. But his mom's kind and gentle shy loving way. I still remember the day I heard about Steve dying, I was in the hospital just had surgery I was so out of it and I thought surely I didn't just read that right at the bottom of the screen. No way Steve is dead, nothing could kill him. When I made myself sit up and actually read what I was seeing all I could do was cry. I've never really cried over some famous person passing.. But Steve... It was like he was our crazy sweet Uncle or something we all loved him. Him & his family was like a part of all of our family... For Terry to stay true, keep his legacy alive through his kids his brand his zoo his animals his babies . Even still keeping Wes & them close that had to be so hard for her, trying to grieve but every single day you can't escape it. But boy did she find a way and I know Steve has got to be so freaking proud of his wife.. Just like she did with Steve she stands to the side and let's his passion through his kids keep living on. We all say Steve was the MPV but none of this would still be here had it not been for her to not let this die with him.

Wow. Steve was my first crush as a little girl. Robert is making his dad so proud. I know it. He's so passionate and knowledgeable and I can't stop smiling watching him.

Respect to Terry

Behind Bindis shadow comes Robert! Just amazing!

I’m on board, family Irwin world domination! 😀👍
