Unreal He was about half nuts. But he did alot of good for conservation and education along with all his stunts.

I really am sorry to here this. I can't believe a sting ray got him.

Sounds like it was a freak accident. Somehow fitting that he would go out due to something bizarre. Just sad that he left behind such young children.

What's incredible is that the sting went past the ribs and into his heart. Stingrays' stings are usually not fatal...

A very sad day.

RIP Steve'o.
