Steve Backshall

I didn't know Steve Irwin, personally, but the remarkable thing about his death was that it wasn't just a one in a million accident, it was one in a billion. I've studied all the books and the chances of being stung in the heart like that are incredibly small. It could not happen again. It was the ultimate freak accident. Steve was a great advocate of wildlife conservation and he would be sad if his death put off anyone from getting involved with the natural world, as would his family.
