You can just imagine Irwin yelling: "Just look at these beauties! Crikey! With those barbs a stingray can kill a horse!" (Yes, Steve, but a stingray doesn't want to kill a horse. It eats crustaceans, for God's sake.)
making fun of a quote YOU JUST MADE UP = desperately unfunny

This morning we sat him down to tell him the news. He was quiet for a minute, then said, "If I hold my nose I can't blow out of it. Watch!" Ah well, we all mourn in our own way...

As you say, someone dies that you don't actually know is something like empathy that you learn later.

neither was grizzly man but he wasn't a professional zookeeper/animal conservationist. He was just a nutter who had something akin to romantic love for grizzly bears and not the common sense or training that Irwin did.

both were charismatic, daredevil, filmmaking conservationists who were killed by the dangerous animals that they got closer to than anyone else dared.

Steve was eccentric but could function in normal society and happened to luck into being able to make a living off his obsession.
Grizzly guy clearly had major psychological problems and used his obsession as means of escaping them.
