Steve Irwin, the world-renowned "Crocodile Hunter", was killed by a stingray attack during filming for a new documentary on September 4th, 2006. The news resulted in a flurry of new YTMNDs ranging from tributes to mockeries.
As with the Dick Cheney and Pluto fad, there was no original YTMND or spinoffs; instead, there was a near-simultaneous reaction to the news. The only consistent elements among the sites are images of Steve Irwin and/or stingrays; many of them are little more than screenshots of Internet news stories, with "RIP Steve Irwin 1962-2006" or similar text.
With over 30 YTMNDs being made within an hour of his death, it is the fastest growing fad to date. The current number of fad sites is hard to work out, as a quick search of Steve Irwin YTMNDs can find over 230 sites with Steve Irwin in the title alone.
More recent sites have involved parodies, the most popular being a tribute site parodizing the ending scene from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.
