"I have a message for my fans. Whatever you want to do in this world, it is achievable. The most important thing I've found that perhaps you could use is to be passionate and enthusiastic in the direction that you choose in life, and you'll be a winner." -Steve Irwin
Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter, had a bigger than life personality. People around the world knew his passion not only his passion not only not only his passion not only for wildlife, but also his passion for life itself. He influenced many with his television shows, including younger viewers, as well as myself when I was young, and even still to this day.
I was introduced to Steve Irwin at a young age, ever since; I first saw his Crocodile Hunter show on the Animal Planet. Watching his shows is when I realized what a dedicated and inspiring person he really was. Steve took his work seriously, but I saw what fun he had as well. As the Crocodile Hunter, he worked with many reptiles, yet he traveled all around the world, exploring the different regions and species on earth. He worked with a variety of diverse species, including sea creatures. One year, Steve went on a trip to an ocean to film an episode with sea creatures, as well as stingrays. He was going down to the bottom floor of the ocean where the stingrays where, then when he got to close to one of them, the creature got frightened and fatally stung him with its barb straight through Steve's heart. In just a matter of moments, the Crocodile Hunter was no longer.
Steve Irwin impacted me tremendously in many ways. He not only was an environmentalist that helped look out for the wildlife, but also a nurturing father and caring husband. Mainly, Steve loved what he did and was passionate about it. He relates to me because I love the outdoors and want to strive to do what I love at my very best, and that is to be an engineer. Steve Irwin will constantly be a legacy that will love on through other generations, and expectantly impact them as much as he has already. He impacted me simply by doing what he loved, while helping everything and everyone around him, even though that in the end, he paid a sacrifice for it.
