Steve  Irwin 
At 11am today, the 4th  September 2006, Steve Irwin was fatally wounded by a 
stingray barb to his heart  whilst filming a sequence on Batt Reef off Port 
Douglas for his daughter’s new  TV series.
Emergency services were called from Cairns Rescue Base and met  Croc One, 
Steve’s rescue vessel at Low Isle on the Great Barrier Reef.
The  Croc One crew performed constant CPR during the thirty minute dash to 
Low Isle,  but the medical staff pronounced Steve dead at approx. 12 noon.  
His producer and closest  friend, John Stainton said on Croc One today,
“The world has lost a great  wildlife icon, a passionate conservationist and 
one of the proudest Dads on the  planet. He died doing what he loves best and 
left this world in a happy and  peaceful state of mind. Crocs Rule!”
