All this Steve Irwin stuff just goes to show, all the jokes on here and the countless ones floating around over here, yet Peter Brock Died only a few days later and so far not one joke...
Just goes to show who was really liked...

Who was Peter Brock? ???
Without wanting to upset cbr900, or any other Australian for that matter, it has to be said that Peter Brock was virtually unknown outside his own Country, except in fairly specialised motor racing circles, I'm sure he never wrestled with nasty snakes or anything like that, and certainly not on world TV. As I said earlier when I brought up his name, I met him only last month for the first and only time, and he was a really nice guy. For anyone wanting to know more try Google, but he was possibly the third best racing driver that Australia has produced, and he had a status similar to a 'man of the people' racer like Nigel Mansell in the UK.
