Steve Irwin dead

[X-ray]

I suspect that the video footage of Irwin's fatal injury will be of no gore value at all. I am guessing based on the mechanism of the injury that the strike itself was probably quite quick and Irwin may not even have realised that he took a hit through the heart. He probably surfaced and then realised he was in trouble. I wouldn't be surprised if reports come in later that he was able to talk to the guys who got him out of the water. This injury is just like a stab with a screwdriver. It doesn't have to bleed much externally. My bet is there is no blood seen on the footage at all.

"...i think he wanted to show that humans were no way special as far as the food chain went..."

I agree with that sentiment. If you are in the croc's territory and he decides you're his next take-away, that's a matter that you two will have to resolve. If a croc ever gets me, the score will be 1-1 because I have already eaten crocodile. That's in my top three of best meats to eat.
Of course I would rather keep the score 1-0 to me  ;-)
