Quote: I'm really trying to feel for the guy here.... (you know, here it comes)but... The guy fucked with dangerous animals for a living. I'd like to say this comes as a shock to me, but it's about as shocking as the sun rising in the east. His show was 98% Jerry Springer type entertainment* with animals and 2% educational with said animals. It is(was) a show about a guy doing stupid shit with wild animals, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Kind of like Roy Horn/Montecore the tiger incident. When you constanly fuck with wild animals bad shit usually follows.
P.S. I hope he had money for his family to live on after his death. Unlike the shotgun smoker John Dough. * I'm not say Jerry is bad, I'm just saying that's what it was.
I guess it's like anyone working a dangerous job...fire fighters for example, they're running into burning buildings, yet we still feel terrible and alot of the time shocked when one of them perishes.
About money...he gave back so much. Most of the money he made he put straight back into wildlife. I'm sure his family will have enough to survive on though, I hope so anyway. I think the Discovery channel are setting up a charity fund for his children to help go towards their education.
