Steve Irwin
Image
The message is simple: love and conserve our wildlife.
Steve Irwin
Image
I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.
Steve Irwin
Image
I get called an adrenaline junkie every other minute, and I'm just fine with that.
Steve Irwin
Image
Crikey means gee whiz, wow!
Steve Irwin
Image
I would sooner die of a taipan bite then tell my dad that I got bitten by a taipan. Because my nose would bleed from his kicking my ass.
Steve Irwin
Image
I have a message for my fans. Whatever you want to do in this world, it is achievable. The most important thing that I've found, that perhaps you could use, is be passionate and enthusiastic in the direction that you choose in life, and you'll be a winner.

We don’t own the planet Earth, we belong to it. And we must share it with our wildlife.
Steve Irwin
Image
We've evolved from sitting back on our tripods and shooting wildlife films like they have been shot historically, which doesn't work for us.
