I enjoyed watching the mans show. And its sad to see him go.. But the article I read said something like "He left doing the thing he loves the most"

I would have liked to see him go out in style ******* around with a snake or croc. Somany times I thought he was gonna get killed playing with a snake on the show its so unexpected he got killed by a gay stingray.

I feel bad for his wife and kids. His kids will grow up never really knowing their dad which is sad no matter how you look at it.
I know he was making really good money but I wonder if he had insurance. He was such a high risk I'm sure a lot of compaines wouldn't want to deal with him.
I personally didn't care for his show's or anything but he really did enjoy what he did and that showed through. It's just to bad he was killed by one of the animals he loved so much.
It's horrible but I wonder how long until the video of him being stung and dying will be on the internet.

I saw that and it made me sad. He made a huge impact on the way people looked at reptiles. I didnt think he was gonna die like that I guess at least it wasnt one of the crocs that he loved so much taking him out. I really liked his show it wasnt all gay and misinformative like the jeff corwin experience.
