Irwin with crocodiles. Australian naturalist and television personality Steve Irwin has been killed by a stingray during a diving expedition off the Australian coast. Mr Irwin, 44, died after being struck in the chest by the stingray's barb while he was filming a documentary in Queensland's Great Barrier Reef. Paramedics from Cairns rushed to the scene but were unable to save him.
I panned with the camera as the stingray swam away â I didn't even know it had caused any damage, he said. It wasn't until I panned the camera back and Steve was standing in a huge pool of blood that I realized something was wrong.. The cameraman theorized the stingray thought Irwin was a predator. The animal jabbed his barb right through Irwin's chest like a knife through butter but the crocodile hunter lay still â and did not even try to pull it out.
