Death Tape Given To Irwin's Wife


Australian officials have handed over the last tape of 'Crocodile Hunter' Steve Irwin's death to his wife, Terri.

All other copies of the naturalist's fatal encounter with a stingray have been destroyed in order to prevent it from ever being shown in public.

Irwin died on September 4 last year when a stingray barb pierced his heart whilst he was filming a television documentary.

His wife, Terri Irwin, said that she didn't want the footage to be shown on TV.

The Queensland state coroner told the BBC: "The footage has been the subject of widespread media interest and it was wholly appropriate that we took all possible steps to ensure something of such a personal and tragic nature did not fall into the wrong hands.

"This is in line with the wishes of Irwin's family."
