A Crocodile Lover
You guessed it: crocodiles. Not only did Steve love crocodiles, but he was obsessed with the dangerous reptile. He had the proper training, which allowed him to spend time with them. Still, it was a risk each and every time. Crocodiles are extremely dangerous and known to kill humans.

One evident quality about Steve is that he was fearless. Whenever he came on the screen, we would watch him jump headfirst into any dangerous situation. Sure, it’s scary, but living on the edge seemed to excite Steve. However, he owes his bravery and adventurous spirit to one particular person, his animal conservationist dad, Bob Irwin. I guess his destined career may partly be genetic.
