I just got the news of the tragedy...that he was involved in a fatal freak accident with a stingray. Very sorry to hear this indeed...he was so full of life and daring.
It's quite sad, TP ... while his style of entertainment wasn't really my cup of tea, my little boys thought he was fabulous! And I just despair for his two little kids.
I spent a good couple of hours trying to explain it to my 3 & 4 year olds ... what 'dead' means, that it is still safe for us to go to the beach, etc.
They are still asking me about him five days later ...
Yes, apparently he was stung by a stingray during his latest filming and the venom went straight to the heart. It's sad but he was full of being and a wonderful environmentalist.

..don't know him 'cause I don't look RL2, but I've read the news on German News Magazine "Spiegel Online".
And a second news just as sad too, a crocodile catched 11 y old Malaysian boy at river Sarawak on Borneo...was human being too
