Steve is a fucking retard ...putting his childs life on the line
Even if you had 4000 years of experience..you can never trust wild animals period :BangBang:

haha, it would be rad if the croc leauped up and ate the kid :1orglaugh

you have to admit, it tops Whacko Jacko's baby dangling.

Doesn't top Whacko Jacko's baby raping, though.

Steve Irwin is a genuine hard man... there's no way that kid was in any danger.

You can't trust other car drivers either.
I think it's safer to be in Steves arms and a croc infront of you than meeting a drunk driver.

think about it clueless people.

that croc is after what? BLOOD, the blood thats dripping from the chicken.

its eyes are not even looking at the kid, that reptile is fucking focused on ONE thing, the chicken.

and thats that.

Dude..can't compare a croc with a car can you
If we're going that way it's safer not to have any kids
at all

Right on :thumbsup

Maybe your brain only processed part of this equation? If you expose a 1 month old baby to something, he'll have a better chance of getting used to it than a 10 year old child would. Thats 10 extra years to learn about his father's line of work.

sure! that certainly makes it a wise decision as a parent to taunt a crocodile with food and feed him by hand while holding a baby.

moron.

"what does it matter, youre all just arguing about this on an adult webmaster board, what does it matter? it wont make a difference.' - you

take your own advice

hahaha

How the fuck did you come to that conclusion? a child at one month even has a concept of "self" much less the slightest clue about whats going on around them.

if anything, he would have nightmares all his life about big fucking animals coming at him with huge fucking teeth while not being able to block brutal images of bloody flesh being ripped apart.

makes sense to me.

what the fuck is wrong with you people?

i seriously doubt thats something i said.
are you drunk?

haha :thumbsup

You got a point... just ask Roy...

substitute global politics with 'a baby and a gator.'

:thumbsup

He won't have nightmears if hes exposed to it on a repeated basis by someone he trusts and loves aka his father. I don't see a problem with it. Farmers have there kids on there lap on huge tractors while plowing fields so the kids get used to the noises etc. By the time the kids are 8-10 years old they are plowing fields by themselves.

A lot of Motorcycle racers started very early. Right after they were able to walk the parents put them on a bike. The early start leads to perfection down the road.

Its his kid if he wants to teach him his craft so be it.

It seems Michael Jackson!!!!!!!!

I think you may need to read up on baby psychology before teaching it to GFY.

"Don't fuck with a Jedi Master"

What movie is this from? Who wants the prize? :)

Mark Hamill in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back

:thumbsup

Then the dad would take the kid into private areas and slowly show him what goes on over time. He wouldn't pull out a 1 month old in front of a crowd for a few cheers.

Very good point.

I think that would work:thumbsup

you da man fletch,,,,btw

I'll have a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich.

heh, dont forget the Bloody Mary no?

:thumbsup

saw it, thought it was a pretty dumb thing to do. what was he trying to prove or achieve?

1. do you really think this kid, if he had a say in the matter would want to be put in this situation due to his FATHERS chosen craft?

I doubt it...

2. Steve Irwin is a dickhead for putting himself in danger for the sake of ratings, none the less he's now involving the welfare of a ONE MONTH OLD CHILD placing in harms way just to benefit himself?

please...how could anyone defend this? he's completely out of line here, god forbid the fucking guy tripped or something...

common sense...he should be arrested for endangering the welfare of a child.

:ticking

Well, I don't exactly agree with it but what I have seen from the guy on his shows (ok, I'm a discover channel addict) he would put his own head in the crocks mouth to save his child...and unless they have had another child recently...then that baby girl is about 5 or 6 years old now and just fine...she accompanies them on many of their journeys.

That is almost worse than what Jackson did by hanging him over the ledge.

:(

what an idiot

Jeez... Yeah, the baby was never in danger. There was only a huge fucking animal that could rip both of them apart.

Well said! It is his fucking child, and he will accustom him to the family trade however he see's fit. The kid by age 5 will be picking up poisinous snakes and shit anyway, so may as well let him in the pen with a Croc now.

And I am sure the Croc is a freshwater one anyway, and if that is the case the probability of it actually being able to attack them is slim and none.

really? why dont you school me. explain to me how a child is consciously aware of anything other than basic sounds, colors and shapes at 1 month. explain to me how a 1 month old can possibly grasp what he is looking at, remember it or learn from the experience.

All you dumbasses that spend their whole lives dissin other people, just shut the fuck up!

Don't judge a person until you've walked a mile in their shoes! (because that way you're a mile away and you've got their shoes)

I tell you what, before you criticise, trade him jobs for a week or two and then come back and tell us how much of a retard he is...if you've got two legs to walk back on.

ever hear of child endangerment?

how many of you supporting this idiot were slamming Michael Jackson for hanging his kid off a balcony?

You know in some countries (many actually) people would find the thought of sticking a young child/baby in child care for full days (without a relative being around) as abusing the child.

Point is, who are you to really judge. Unless he is beating on his child, he should have every right to teach/raise him how he see's fit. As Ben says 'Don't judge a person until you've walked a mile in their shoes!'. This is the norm for him, just as abandoning your child for full days, weeks, months and years in 'childcare' is the norm for others.

Steve really fucked up this time

Why would you put a child in danger?

People make a big deal out of nothing.
Steve is an expert and he is holding the Child far enough away.

The kid was in more danger during the car ride to the Zoo.

Like i said in previous threads related to this guy
-He is a cool person, who is talented and brave in many aspects
-But he is a huge ass attention whore in anything that he does

Did you see the video clip?

...Says it all


Also even if you do wish to take your kid on alittle "adventure" why would you want to do it infront of all these people?

I think its pretty bad for a kid to grow up in the spotlight/media

This is just what I feel....

I think the media attention to the little is much more dangerous for it than the little croco. I would 100% trust Steve and I think his little boy was pretty save in his arms.
The crowd should put much more attention to parrents which will allow there kiddies to take a bath at the ocean where sharks and other wild animals are around or let them play on dangerous streets, but this nobody cares about
