Death by Stingray barb.  A rare & suitable death for this loon.  I liked him.  RIP.

Sad news.

Like Rod Hull's fall from the roof I can see it spawning a thousand jokes.


sorry

Its not what I expected when I heard - I was expecting and Siegfried & Royesque ending involving an angry croc.

Does make you wonder what he was doing to the stingray to end up like that  :-\

It would seem the dude was diving with them, rather than swimming.

I didn't realise they were so dangerous:

Let's raise a XXXX in a toast of rememberance. Hasn't he been bitten by some of the most poisonous creatures in the past?

Oh yes...  When making The Most Dangerous Ginger Blokes in the World, Mick Hucknall gave him a near fatal love bite.  In Politician Hunter, the lethal Peter Mandleson almost managed to lure Steve back to his lair.  And who could forget the on-screen tension when Janet Street Porter clamped her massive toothy jaw around his manhood and Steve only just managed to escape by the skin of his, erm, teeth.
