Stingrays, he says, "are normally very calm." If they aren't happy, they swim away. They found a "massive" stingray in shallow water. "They were eight days into the filming of the documentary. "I remember it very clearly," Lyons says. Lyons recounted exactly what happened that day with the stingray. "We're saying to him things like, 'Think of your kids, Steve, hang on, hang on, hang on.' And he just sort of calmly looked up at me and said, 'I'm dying,' and that was the last thing he said." In an interview Sunday with Australian morning show Studio 10, Lyons recalled those last words and moments he spent with Irwin. Now Irwin's best friend and underwater cameraman, Justin Lyons, is talking about the final moments he spent with the beloved nature guru. We all remember the tragic death of Steve Irwin, famed Australian crocodile hunter, who died nearly eight years ago when he was attacked by a stingray while working on a documentary.
