So Steve Irwin died and everyone is freaking out about it. I wasn’t going to comment, but recently I read that some one wants to destroy the tape of his death. This is totally unacceptable. If Steve didn’t want people to watch him die in a gruesome fashion, why would he spend his life video taping himself doing crazy stuff with dangerous animals? I’ve heard from the internet (very reliable) that he’s actually expressed in his will that his death should be shown on TV if it was caught on tape.
So this is my official call to save Steve Irwin’s death tapes. The should be put in a museum after copied 10,000 times and distributed all over the internet.
Update: Immediately after posting this I began listening to the Sept. 6 episode of Penn Radio. They picked the topic. Just wanted to point to it, as you can listen for free, and also, Penn says Steve Irwin said he wanted his death released if it was filmed in a 2002 interview, so… more credibility and such.
