Please take 7 minutes of your time to watch Ross the Intern meet Steve Irwin and a great big tarantula. This is my go-to video for days like these when there’s not much else that can make me smile. This makes me happier than pretty much anything else on You Tube.
I don’t know which is better - Ross’s fabulousness or the crocodile hunter’s total inability to deal with Ross’s fabulousness. He could handle all sorts of poisonous creatures, but not a queen!
Snakes are just very instinctive to me. I’ve been playing with snakes since before I could walk. It doesn’t matter where or what it is, from the biggest to the most venomous. -Steve Irwin (22 February 1962 – 4 September 2006)
