Re: Video of Steve Irwins Death

I don't think it should be released. It is a death! Is nothing sacred anymore.
I think we have become so desensitived to watching people die in TV and movies that we cannot grasp the magnitude of a life ending, especially when it is so tragic as is this case with Steve Irwin. I have watched loved ones die before and it is such a sad, intimate moment. It needs to be treated with dignity and respect.

If it was released I woudln't want to watch it. I'll admit, I'm curious. But I am also afraid. I would be afraid that it woudl haunt me and give me nightmares. I also think its disrespectful to his memory.

He said that if something happened to him he would want it released for educational purposes.

I don't think it should be released. He had a lot of young fans who might try looking for the tape.

It should be private for the family to see...honestly the public really has no right to see that...its someone's husband and father...would you want video of your family member dying shown all over tv?

I don't think it should be released - and it's not. Teri said after the coroner reviews it...it is to be destroyed.

Re: Video of Steve Irwins Death

bottom line

it will eventually be released on the internet

too much money to be made here

and despite people saying it shouldn't

it will be a largely watched piece

people may not want to see it, but everyone will be curious

He wanted it to be released.
he said if anything happened to him and he died and it was caught on tape, that it should be released.



where'd you hear/see/read this?


if it was to be released i think Teri Irwin should be the ONLY one to have the say



i agree with this....



Agree

Re: Video of Steve Irwins Death

indeed

this guy that says he will destroy the tape is full of it, IMO

it may not be anytime soon, but he stands to make a buck, so money will talk and before long, it will be out there.

I wouldn't want to watch it. I'd be curious, but I wouldn't watch it. Also as far as the coroner releasing the video, let's just hope that he is respectful of Teri Irwin and not greedy for some $$$$$

Jes, I feel the same way. If it was released, I would feel this need to watch it, the same way I feel the need to watch all the 9/11 coverage on TV. However, I don't think it should be released. Although he was a public figure, his death should be private, and for his family to view should they choose to do so.



I completely agree.

Re: Video of Steve Irwins Death

This video should not be released just as I feel the Sept.11th movie should never have been made. These are not "stories". They are the actual deaths of real people...it should not be viewed as entertainment. It is just sick!

Re: Video of Steve Irwins Death

they were talking about it on the radio this morning- how the video shows him pulling out the stingray's tail from his chest

i dont think they should show the video of his death (or anyone's death...)

Re: Video of Steve Irwins Death

i think there is too much difference between a terror attack that killed thousands to a man dying by stiny ray. they are not the same.
