However, Steve in life is not much different from ordinary people. Sometimes he will accelerate his car to more than 160 km while driving. Steve in front of the camera may restrain his personality a little, but not too much. Steve is Steve, no different from him in ordinary life. What kind of child is Steve in the eyes of Steve's father?

"I think Steve is a very special child. He was never where he should be. We can never find him. We seldom go out on holiday. Once we went on holiday, Steve always chased lizards in a small river there. "

In 1970s, Steve and his family moved from Melbourne to Biava and built a reptile house. Steve said that his family used to live in a trailer. It was not until 1972 that Steve's father built their own house. At that time, kangaroos and koalas were everywhere around their home. Steve said that sometimes there are snakes in his room. However, he is not afraid, but feels great! He said that life was very difficult at that time, because tourism was not so prosperous at that time, and animals such as crocodiles and snakes were not people's favorite animals. Steve said that people are more inclined to shoot these animals, but his father and he had already shown their love for crocodiles.

"When I was 9 years old, my father asked me to jump on the crocodile's back. Later, my father joined the crocodile management program. He took me to Queensland in the north to catch those restless and fierce crocodiles. Many times farmers often deal with such crocodiles themselves. I saw many crocodiles killed. I just tried my best with my father's help. It was the most unforgettable time in my life. Our family is busy in northern Queensland, catching these restless and troublesome crocodiles, and then moving them to other areas or taking them to the zoo. " Save friends from crocodiles.

Wes is Steve's good friend. They grew up together. Wes also has a soft spot for reptiles.

"I like snakes since I was a child. When I learned about the Queensland Reptile House, I went there every day after school and on weekends. Since then, the zoo has become a part of my life. "

Steve said that his friend Weiss is a man who can do anything for his friends: "He will get shot for you, he will jump on the crocodile's head for you, and he will do the same if you need him." We grew up together. My father took us to the stage of wildlife. He saved my life, but I also saved his. "

"Over the years, we have experienced many dangerous things together, because we are facing dangerous animals. The most dangerous experience for both of us was the flood in the zoo. We cleaned by the fence. This is what we do every day, but we made mistakes that could have been avoided because we didn't notice crocodiles at that time. "

The TV news reported the news that crocodiles saved people in the zoo. Steve said that nature drove him to save lives. He saved his good friend Weiss.

Weiss said that a male crocodile may have dragged him into the fence to show off his skills to the female crocodile. "I looked down at the time and thought it was over. I was killed. Waist-deep water over there, plus crocodiles in the back. I managed to break free from the crocodile. I will never forget that this crocodile came at me from behind. I was very lucky because Steve was there. Just before the crocodile bit me, Steve grabbed the crocodile's tail and gave me time to escape. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be here today. "
