Here's what Jean-Michel Cousteau has to say on Steve Irwin's death:

"You don't touch nature, you just look at it. And that's why I'm still alive. I've been diving over 61 years - a lot many more years that he's been alive - and I don't mess with nature."

What a snobby old fart. I know of lots of people who didn't "touch nature" but they still died. I had heard he was a self-righteous prat, this confirms it for me!
