According to ABC Radio, the Crocodile Hunter is dead from a sting ray
barb to the heart while diving.

I saw the "barb" of a sting ray on NBC last night. It looked like a
stilletto about a foot long. I knew that rays had stingers at the end
of their tails but this was much more deadly than a stinger. If they
also have venom they are quite a killing machine. Apparently the blade
pierced his heart. What a wierd accident.
