Wow. Steve Irwin, the Australian TV presenter known as the “Crocodile Hunter,” is dead after a stingray barb went through his heart during the filming of a documentary off Australia’s north coast on the Great Barrier Reef. Just wow. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a person dying from a ray sting. I can’t imagine what could have happened here.

Strangely, Brian Ford said something about him “rolling over in his grave” on this very site not all that long ago.

Jesus! Thanks so much for pointing that out.
I will now never speak again, lest I unleash my hellish powers on any more unsuspecting victims.
(In all seriousness, I’m not sure I can recall a celebrity death that has hit so hard or that I’ve met with such disbelief.)
