I'm not shocked. It's slightly ironic though. Only the second death related to stingrays in Australia, or something? Amazing.
About the guy... I have mixed feelings towards him. He indeed brought a lot of awareness towards wildlife and I loved his endless enthusiasm, but at the same time I always got the feeling he was badgering animals somewhat. I doubt those crocs enjoyed being dragged by their tails or lizards picked up from the trees to be showcased infront of the camera. I much more appreciated those types of documentaries where animals are being filmed from the distance, not being disturbed by the hand of man. Though I think he meant to cause no harm or discomfort to the animals and he genuinely loved wildlife I still can't shake of that feeling that he was too intruding.
That being said though. Respect to him. RIP.
