Frank Skinner interview with the late Steve Irwin - Crocodile Hunter

[@spamvicious]

He was so genuine, nothing fake about him. The world is so much worse without him.

[@fancypantsuk]

Why?

[@spamvicious]

antony john Why what?

[@royfr8136]

I was told by many Australians that his accent was so exaggerated

[@Zmart30]

ROY FR it’s not. I’m Australian and I’ve heard even more exaggerated Aussie accents than Steve’s

[@digitalmediafan]

@@Zmart30 this is a completely true blue fair dinkum Aussie accent...I sometimes wish i was an Aussie !

[@HintonDrumCovers]

This man was my childhood hero. Such a respectful, caring, intelligent man. R.I.P Steve.

[@dvchel]

Couldn't agree with you more! :)

Great man Sad to this day... Miss you Steve

[@harmonyvegan]

Such a legend, pure passion and great energy. Rest in peace Steve! :-)

[@Lolligesoldaatje]

Could listen to Steve the whole day, RIP

[@user-lb9td1cy1m]

the word 'boring' wasn't part of his vocabulary. I miss this man more than anything. thank you for everything Steve.

[@rokerroar]

10 years - RIP mate

[@tommcguire7525]

I always can’t help but smile when I listen to this legend talking. He had so much passion. The world will always miss you Steve ❤️

[@goldenDropBear]

His enthusiasm for his kids is amazing.

[@RobButler1984]

I forgot how much I loved this guy! What a legend!

[@startracker5895]

The audience kept pissing me off when I watched this first time around. They kept laughing at Steve even when he wasn't saying anything funny. Just seemed they were laughing at him rather than with him most of the time. But I loved Steve. And I'm so sad he's not with us anymore. RIP Steve.

[@rusty8041]

That's what irks me EVERY time I watch this. He is (and I mean is) my eternal role model.

[@PrototypeBMX]

+Star tracker i think they are just dummies programed to laugh because it's a comedy show

[@digitalmediafan]

+Rusty they laugh because of his unusual enthusiasm and energy...A one off that's for sure

[@odw_99]

They weren't going to not laugh, or sit in sullen silence just because he died some time in the future, surely that should be the case with everyone in that case?

[@startracker5895]

What's his death got to do with it? What a stupid thing to say! And of course an audience should keep silent when someone is interviewed. It's called manners! Sure laugh when their funny but don't laugh when their just talking normally. It's very rude.

[@sebwanna]

Steve got me in to wild life along with the really really wild show in Uk in 80s but Steve was my wild life hero always watched his show when ever it was on sky I miss him loads

[@littlejoe9381]

I wish I had gotten to know him better when he was alive. He seems like a wonderful person to know.

[@MyFreeTime15]

That audience...Stop laughing....

[@Dreamskater100]

Yeah. Idiots.

[@tarbuck1]

I liked steves and his enthusiasm. But I'll never forget, watching one his documentaries with my mom - It was a snake one. And my mom said to me - "Whats up with him, he's going to kill himself, if he carries on like that." He did, and my mom died a day later.

[@digitalmediafan]

that is so sad to read...keep strong

[@twstf8905]

OMG!! That went bad fast lol

[@DarkSkies72]

Sorry to hear that. May they both R.I.P.

[@fretboardmaster70]

Miss this guy still to this day. Such a genuine straight up entertaining bloke.

[@taevue]

Gosh I find Steve so funny! He could very likely be a comedian if he reckon.

[@bludika]

yea he was not only funny, compassionate, and knowledgable, he was a great man.

[@Hunter-zu9qs]

the shit he got from the baby bob incedent was completely undeserved. he knew what he was doing. end of story.

[@jasontuck-smith3896]

So much energy and passion. Taken from us too soon.

[@jrzy49]

Such a great human being.

[@lozzylozzy123]

I Miss Steve :( The way he talks about animals and his experiences in this interview and everything else is so passionate and caring.

[@Pfitzgerald98]

he is like a child he is so into it

[@mrrobbiezed]

Was watching Steve on TV the other night, the show where he was a judge for a beauty pageant . . . . . .he was so funny ! . . . . .he's that much larger than life that you forget that he's no longer with us. What a fantastic human being ! miss ya mate.

[@grassfuse]

What a great 'bloke' his love and respect for all life was humbling! He never failed to entertain and educate,you were having so much fun watching him you almost learnt by stealth!A much missed real life Hero.R.I.P. Mate,thanks for all the laughs,thrills and insights!

[@christinamcilwaine8235]

12 years on we miss you Steve our wildlife warrior you changed our world true blue hero 💙💙💙💙

[@Emily62524]

He was my childhood hero. R.I.P Steve

[@dude157]

What a great interview. There was a real rapport there. Steve's enthusiasm and passion shone through. Sad he has gone.

[@DarkSkies72]

He was a champion for animals everywhere. I’ll always miss him. #RIPSteveIrwin

[@poetryreincarnations]

Thanks for sharing this Steve Irwin was a truly great man. Kind Regards Jim Clark

[@timtaylor953]

Passionate like attenbrough. Steve Irwin RIP

[@DoctorMeatDic]

He was very different to Attenborough. He deliberately provoked animals to get a reaction. Attenborough's style was observance only, no interfering. Irwin's approach ultimately led to his death.

[@tempestrage257]

but steve loved animals he wanted tobe close enough to touch them and learn their behaviour what happened to him was extremely unlucky

[@craftysquirrel2958]

Seriously? Have you actually watched Attenborough? No "interfering"? OK, so maybe Attenborough is not a herpetologist and never wrestled crocodiles, but go watch him with the primates. There are actually quite a few similarities between the pair of them, particularly when David Attenborough was younger. You have to remember that Irwin died when he was just 44, so most of his films were done in his 30s, whereas Attenborough has been on telly for over 50 years! It's their enthusiasm where they are so alike. Steve's enthusiasm and energy is very Australian, whilst Attenborough is very British, but the passion is no less. Go watch Zoo Quest, or Attenborough with the Gorillas, and think that when he filmed that NOBODY in the world had done anything like that and it was over 20 years before anyone had heard of Irwin! In his later years Attenborough "interferes" less and less, but just watch him with the baby rhino back when he did his "Africa" series: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4i2eKSEd7lkncU

[@trailingarm63]

Brilliant interview and fascinating subject. What a hell of a shame he had to go so soon.

[@stuartberesford3585]

I love Steve Irwin, I was so upset when he died. But he he died doing what he loves

[@johnlondon5801]

What a brilliant guy Steve Irwin is ,so down to earth. still miss him.

[@-Thunder-Warrior-]

"Long may you continue, be careful." Aaaah yeah, that got me too mate! But what a great interview, top bloke no doubt!

[@dazo69]

What a loss to the world. Top bloke, really nice guy and how could you not get pulled in with his enthusiasm.

im seriously about to cry... i miss steve :(

[@tonypap1]

So many people in Oz say that he's actually like that ALL the time in real life.....it's not just a show for tele. He's just a really passionate bloke. A natural entertainer

[@Gezza.78]

Love this man, this is what legend stands for...

[@twstf8905]

Who else on this planet has that much passion for what they do?! I bet not even one in a billion. What he did for a living was so important to the world that even as an adult he could be a big kid. I don't know anyone that wakes up in the morning and goes to their job with even half as much excitement. Or many people who's work is nearly as important for all life on Earth. The world would be a better place if we all have Steve Irwin amounts of enthusiasm for the work we do.

[@christinamcilwaine350]

Rest In Peace Steve Irwin The Worlds Wildlife Warrior Forever Loved and Missed Everyday Never Forgotten 💙🙏💙

[@mandowarrior123]

It is not an interview with the late Steve Irwin, he is alive in the interview.

[@mrernie]

Well the video was uploaded and titled after he died, so there's nothing incorrect about saying late...

[@edwardjones2202]

Huh?? So any property ascribed to "the late x" is true if and only if true of x post-mortem? So all the standard "late x" sayings such as "the late x was a taxi driver", "the late x was born in 1974" etc are only true if the corpse drove taxi's and if the corpse, as a corpse, was delivered of his mother??? Try again sunshine
