Steve Irwin narrowly escaped a death like that in the supermarket once.

"Spotted eagle rays can grow up to 17 feet in length, weigh up to 500 pounds and have a wingspan of up to 10 feet."

Geeze. I didn"t know they got that big.

It killed her with blunt force trauma:

"The animal reportedly struck the 55-year-old woman who fell backward and suffered a severe head trauma, reports CBS News station WFOR-TV in Miami."

Very weird.

(The stingray must have overheard her criticizing its religion.)

Irwin was not stung by a stingray, he was swimming up and behind it''s barbed tail and somehow impaled himself ON it- maybe the ray stopped and his momentum did it, however it happened he impaled himself on the tail- it wasnt THRUST backwards into him!

The ray didnt even attack or kill her, just flipped out of the water into her, she fell backwards and hit her HEAD, could have happened in the supermarket with someone''s kid careeing down the isle with a shopping cart running into her sending her flying to the floor.

The water is the ray''s HOME and territory, like a lion''s den if you go in, you assume all risks.

not aggressive? how many people do these stingrays have to kill to be considered aggressive?

Ray''s Gone Wild!

So? People use well over half their resources and energy to kill themselves by the millions. No other creature, bacteria, germ, or virus, kills more humans than other humans.

Maybe so, but I value human life and I do feel sorrow for her family.
