He knew the risks but he didn't deserve to die anymore then the astronauts on the doomed shuttle mission.

you don't need to pick up poisonous snakes and lizards and insects or taunt deadly predators and poisonous fish to "educate" anyone... most of it is done for shock value and ratings.
his last bit of "education" was "if you stand in the middle of a bunch of poisonous rays, one might at any given moment feel threatened and attack and attack you and kill you". ... hope people got that message. having grown up in alaska and seeing a steady flow of "i'm sooo in touch with the planet and cosmos and animals" hippy types, getting eat by bears... i dont think that type of programming does anyone any favors.
deadly animals are deadly animals.
