The most entertaining man in showbiz
The first time I watched "Crocodile Hunter", Steve was in the jungles looking at elephants up close. The elephant noticed him and she started to run after Steve. He made it out ok, but damn was that ever entertaining!!! He knows how to make people sit up on their seats. And later on in that episode he climbs up a tree to get a snake. While he's up there hanging on for his dear life he breaks off the branch with the snake on it, the snake was venemous but he didn't care he brought it down to show it to us. This show, after one episode left me amazed.
I was sad to see this show never won any awards because this is the most entertaining show on television. He risks his life in every episode for us. It makes you laugh so hard you'll pee your pants or it'll leave amazed that you can't wait until the next show. Steve and Terri are the greatest people in showbiz!

Everyone's waiting for that one time...
The Crocodile Hunter, aka Steve Irwin, has to be the craziest man on Earth. In any given episode, you'll see him trapping pissed off crocs, holding highly venomous snakes by the tail as he points out their colorations, or just feeding the inhabitants of the Queensland Zoo by dangling a chicken leg inches from their tooth filled maws.
Half of the show's appeal is the knowledge he displays with each animal he finds, explaining everything he knows about them to the camera. The other half is watching as he stares down some creature, hoping this is the time he gets bitten or eaten, knowing that if it happens, his last words will be, "Crickey! Keep the camera rolling, and...." The best moments so far have been the numerous close calls, from crocs attacking the camera, to being sprayed down by spitting cobras. More interactive than any given National Geographic special, he risks life and limb each episode, all because he loves his job so much. In my opinion, this show is better than some unknown dude sitting half a mile away watching a lion eat a zebra. You know Steve would be kneeling a few yards away, smiling to the camera. That's why he's the best host on any nature show. I rate this show 8/10, and I'll keep watching until the day he gets too close.

The best show on TV!
Steve and Terri rule! I love this show, not only for it's entertainment value but for it's educational value as well. Steve and Terri are great role models for kids. And they seem to have a great marriage and a happy family. In a world filled with divorces and broken homes it is so nice to see an example of a good family. I just hope Steve dose not get killed on one of his adventures! Croc Hunter is the best!
Crikey, what a beauty!!!
Crikey...injecting a much needed shot in the arm of nature documentaries, Steve Irwin has burst onto the scene like crazed bandicoot. Steve Irwin and his lovely wife Terri head into the bush every week and traumatize innocent forest creatures to the great amusement of the television audience. Steve's hands-on approach to zoology is highly entertaining to watch, while at the same time informative. Granted, steve is a diesel mechanic, and holds no degree of any kind in biology. What he does have is a lifetime of experience with animals and utterly no regard for his own personal safety. "Watch now as I stick my head in this snake infested burrow...crikey, it bit my eye! No worries..." It's as much comedy as it is science. Steve Irwin is the Lee Majors of nature show hosts. I truly believe that Steve Irwin could defeat any land animal in hand to hand combat...including Rowdy Roddy Piper. If any one person is guaranteed of having their grisly demise captured on film, it's Steve Irwin. But until that dark day, we will continue to watch, dumfounded, the Crocodile Hunter. Peace.
THIS SHOW IS JUST THE BEST NATURE PROGRAMME IN THE WORLD!
This is one amazing series! Steve Irwin and his wife Terri telling us all about crocodiles and their ways. Don't think that this is just one of those stupid voyeur nature programmes because it ain't! I admire Steve simply because his is so ENTHUSIASTIC, so BRAVE and so damn ENTERTAINING! In the series I have seen Steve sit on a croc's back, lie on the ground close to a croc and even seen him being chased by one! This is one FANTASTIC series that everyone must watch! It's just so entertaining as well as being fun, adventures, exciting AND informative. HOW MANY THINGS CAN YOU SAY THAT ABOUT?! 10/10 Excellent!
