Steve Irwin, the beloved Crocodile Hunter, dies at age 44.

When I read that news, I honest to God almost started to hyperventilate. I honest to God thought I was going to pass out. I got light-headed and my heart started beating a million miles a minute and everything started to get dark around me. I felt like I was living in a different galaxy.

I never really enjoyed watching Steve Irwin, but oh my God. Oh my God.

On some respect, he seemed invincible, more than anyone I could think of. He played with crocs, he swam with sharks.. he did anything you could ever imagine. He had a wife and two children.

And then in a freak accident he died. Most people that get stung by stingray don't die. And yet Steve's went straight to his heart.

His heart of gold. He loved his work, he loved nature, he loved the world around him. He was an amazing conservationist, zoologist, husband, and father.

Rest in peace, Steve. Rest in peace.
