That's what keeps getting to me. I read on MSNBC that he was actually swimming
on top of the stingray. What do you expect from that? He's actually been called on a few times for getting too close to the animals. I guess it was only a matter of time (and an extreme case of bad luck) before something finally happened to him.
Yeah, he was crazy for even doing what he did, but I loved watching the guy. Now I'm wondering what I'll be watching on Animal Planet. It's definitely an immense loss for both the animal world and ours.
I agree with Mr. Marshmallow; At least the man died doing what he was passionate about.
