Default Croc hunter Irwin believed he'd die young

http://omg.yahoo.com/croc-hunter-irw...wife/news/3476

CANBERRA (Reuters) - Quirky crocodile hunter Steve Irwin had a sixth sense that he would die young, his American-born wife Terri said on Monday.
All due respect to the Irwin family ... but no shit.

If you spend all day chasing "the world's most venomous snakes" ...

ya know he fucked with crazy animals, but the man was an expert on these creatures. granted they are highly dangerous creatures, but Irwin grew up around them, and he knew them like we know cats and dogs.

Granted watching him looks like he is insane, but everything he did was experience. When he died it was a freak accident. I mean fuck i wouldn't do half the shit he did, but with his first hand skills and knowledge i see him doing that no different than most people out there who are experts in their field that involves some level of danger :dunno:

right ... BUT these guys know how to handle these animals, they are usually experts on them. i'm not saying the animals are domesticated by any means, but these guys know what they are doing.
