I am thinking he was more stupid than passionate, what a fool, left his family and children in the name of fame and bravado.
I honestly don’t think fame had anything to do with what Steve spent his life doing. He was crazy before he hit the big screen. It was all part of what HE believed he had to do to achieve his goal, which i think was learning and spreading his knowledge about the wildlife in our world. There are many jobs out there that involve the same levels of danger, but people still do them because thats what THEY choose to do.
It is sad that he has left his children and family behind him, but they were ALWAYS part of what he did and stood behind him 100% of the way, they shared his experiences.
Again a sad loss to the nature world, but one i think who will always be remembered.
