I cried when I heard that he died.<BR/><BR/>I had always wanted to be a wild life rehabilitator, but it just wasn't in the cards for me. I lived vicariously through him - every day on Animal Planet. I truly thought he was amazing. And from what I hear, he really was larger than life.<BR/><BR/>I have cousins in Australia, and they agree that he was thought to be an embarrassment, an over the top caricature, until he died. Then they realized what a national treasure he was.<BR/><BR/>When you choose to push your life outside the edges of the box, you are courting extra danger. He had often said, "I know that when one of these crocs get me, someone is going to say - I told you so".<BR/><BR/>No one anywhere ever would have guessed it would be a random sting-ray barb to his heart.Fancy Schmancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12820338705876627799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408799910756042468.post-80313277262912806882008-10-24T12:24:00.000-07:002008-10-24T12:24:00.000-07:00I like Elton John but always hated that song.I like Elton John but always hated that song.Dr Zibbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11570006777738622727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408799910756042468.post-33051246978277364222008-10-23T20:48:00.000-07:002008-10-23T20:48:00.000-07:00I agree.

He certainly had a joyous & adventurous spirit, and loved the creatures he handled, but.... well, in my mind there's a reason we don't keep crocodiles as pets ... or swim with stingrays. We'll save it for another day, though. Hope you enjoyed the videos, anyway!
