SYDNEY, Australia (CNN) -- Steve Irwin, the Australian TV presenter known as the "Crocodile Hunter," has died after being stung in a marine accident off Australia's north coast.

Australian media reports say Irwin was diving in waters off Port Douglas, north of Cairns, when the incident happened on Monday morning.

Irwin, 44 was killed by a stingray barb that went through his chest, according to Cairns police sources. Irwin was filming an underwater documentary at the time.

Ambulance officers confirmed they attended a reef fatality Monday morning off Port Douglas, according to Australian media.

Queensland Police Services also confirmed Irwin's death and said his family had been notified. Irwin was director of the Australian Zoo in Queensland.

He is survived by his American-born wife Terri and their two children, Bindi Sue, born 1998, and Robert (Bob), born December 2003.

Irwin became a popular figure on Australian and international television through Irwin's close handling of wildlife, most notably the capture and relocation of crocodiles.

Irwin's enthusiastic approach to nature conservation and the environment won him a global following. He was known for his exuberance and use of the catch phrase "Crikey!"

But his image suffered a setback in January 2004 when he held his then 1-month-old baby Bob while feeding a crocodile at his Australian zoo. (Full story)

In a statement released to Australian media, Foreign Minister Alexander Downer expressed his sorrow and said that he was fond of Irwin and was very appreciative of all the work he had done in promoting Australia overseas.

In 2003, Irwin spoke to the Australian Broadcasting Corp.'s Australian Story television program about how he was perceived in his home country.

"When I see what's happened all over the world, they're looking at me as this very popular, wildlife warrior Australian bloke," he said, the ABC reported.

"And yet back here in my own country, some people find me a little bit embarrassing. "You know, there's this... they kind of cringe, you know, 'cause I'm coming out with 'Crikey' and 'Look at this beauty'."

R.I.P. legendi.

Nije bilo moguće gledati njegove emisije bez osmjeha na licu.

Još kad progovori onim "true blue aussie" akcentom...

STEVE IRWIN, poznatiji pod nazivom "lovac na krokodile", poginuo je u ponedjeljak tijekom snimanja filma o podvodnom svijetu nedaleko obale Port Douglasa u Australiji.

Direktor Australskog ZOO vrta u Queenslandu život je izgubio nakon uboda raže čiji je jedan ubod u prsa bio fatalan za neustrašivog pustolova, javljaju australski mediji.

44-godišnji pustolov Irwin, poznat po nekonvencionalnom pristupu snimanja emisija o životinjama praćenih vrlo zanimljivim i osebujnim komentarima, poginuo je u ponedjeljak ujutro po australskom vremenu u sjevernim australskim vodama kod Cairnsa.

Lokalna policija objavila je da se nesreća dogodila tijekom podvodnog snimanja dokumentarca o životinjskom svijetu koji egzistira na tom području.

Nakon nesreće Australac je helikopterom brzo prevezen u Queensland, no ubod raže bio je na žalost mnogih ljubitelja Irwinovih serijala o životinjama fatalan.

O nesreći je obaviještena njegova obitelj, supruga Terri i djeca, Bindi Sue (1998.) i Robert (2003.), prenose australski mediji.

Ispunjen golemim entuzijazmom za rad sa životinjama Irwin je u Queenslandu formirao manju farmu reptila koje je s vremenom prerasla u Australski Zoološki vrt, glavni zoo centar gdje posjetitelji mogu vidjeti primjerke australskih divljih životinja.

Bio je poznat po specifičnom radu sa zmijama, paucima i krokodilima s kojima je snimio poseban serijal koji je na neki način i donio svjetsku slavu njegovom imenu.

Ali kao sto mnogi ljudi kazu, bilo je samo pitanje vremena!!!

Kljucno je to - da ga je raza ubola u prsa a ne u nogu - vecina ljudi nagazi na njih - pa je sasvim drukcije. Ovako - ubodom u prsa - otrov je za 30 sekundi oko srca - imas aritmiju i ides u sok, ako je jos bio pod vodom - nije ni izasao na povrsinu. Nakon 2 minute - bez krvi - mozak ti odumire - za 10 minuta - ako ne pocnes disati - klinicki si mrtav. Za 20 minuta - nema te sile koja ce te vratiti medju zive.

Uglavnom mislim da nije bila teska smrt.

Najgore je sto iza njega osta dijete od 3 godine. Imati ovaku legendu za oca a nikad ga i ne upoznati je tragedija.

Nije stavljao dijete krokodilu u usta nego je drzao dijete u lijevoj ruci dok je desnom hranio krokodila.

In January 2004, he stunned onlookers at the Australia Zoo reptile park by carrying his month-old son into a crocodile pen during a wildlife show. He tucked the infant under one arm while tossing the 13-foot reptile a piece of meat with the other.
