Crikey. The beastie put a hole in his heart with its stinger. RIP, Steve. We lost one of the greats today.

#6  that is a shame. RIP. I really enjoyed his shows. He did leave the world an important message and one that I'm sure if he had to go early he would be happy to make: Wild animals are dangerous and they are not pets to be played with.

#1  I've come across stingrays when diving and snorkeling and they are usually gentle and unaggressive unless you try to grab them or something
