Bindi Irwin – My Daddy The Crocodile Hunter Music Clip

The music clip Bindi Irwin sang during the special show “My Daddy The Crocodile Hunter” My Dad was a great man Part Conservationist, part Tarzan He knew things he would teach me Like how to surf a wave, down the beach We’d ride a motorbike, we’d pitch a tent, yeah Have a water fight, just for fun We’ll have a little world class big adventure Living with my dad was a bigger one. Catching snakes, jumping on crocs, Swinging with the monkeys in the high tree tops, Chasing lizards across the rocks, What a time we had, me and Dad! Sometimes shooting for the silver screen Smetimes jumping on the trampoline. A world-wide hero, but don’t you see He was just plain Dad to me My dad was a get up and go-er Sheltered the animals just like Noah He’s still a house-hold name, But in our house he earned his fame By cooking our dinner every night with recipes a la Steveo He’d put us all to bed with a pillow fight, There was action guaranteed So we’d go . . . Catching snakes, jumping on crocs, Swinging with the monkeys in the high tree tops, Chasing lizards across the rocks, What a time we had, me and Dad! Sometimes shooting for the silver screen Smetimes jumping on the trampoline. A world-wide hero, but don’t you see He was just plain Dad to me Also check out my other videos :-)

Tips and Tricks:

Crikey! Steve Irwin’s “Crocodile Hunter” Brand is Alive and Well

Article by Michael Mark

Steve Irwin made me gasp in life and in death. From my sleepy SoCal living room I’d squirm with both worry and delight over the hyperactive chubby fella in the short pants, at once chastising him for risking his life while also daring him to go further. He’d have me shouting at the screen like an overprotective overzealous Little League dad, “What’s the matter with you? Leave the poisonous mama boa constrictor alone while she’s giving birth to those slimy sextuplets! But, hey, while you’re there, why don’t you put your head in her mouth?”

Fear, bewilderment, bravery, giddiness, excitement, nervousness, guilt. Above all, the Crocodile Hunter made tens of millions of us – judging by the outpouring since his accident – feel.

Which, of course, takes us to branding. To selling stuff.

Every episode of “The Crocodile Hunter” was an adrenaline jolt. Steve’s promise was making us feel deeply from thousands of miles away on our lumpy couches what he was feeling inches from painful danger – perhaps even doom. That’s why he was loved and hated. Respected and lampooned. Those emotional connections are what brands must make if they are to be not just in our cupboards, but part of our lives. Sure, thinking is highly recommended but feeling is the essential gooey sloppy motivator that makes us act. Feeling makes us loyal. Feeling makes us bond. Feeling grows business. At NYCA (http://www.nyca.com), we call it “attachment branding.” Like Steve, we have tools to fasten customers to brands. To do that a brand has to know the limits, and tip-toe, dance, high-dive around — and sometimes over — them.

See, the Crocodile Hunter was too much. He took too many chances, too big risks and in the end he died for it. But honestly, folks, isn’t that what we wanted to see and didn’t want to see? (This is the fear, bewilderment, guilt part). Would we have loved him if he was the Caterpillar Hunter? Or if he pointed out wild creatures from afar with his binoculars? Marlon Perkins of “Wild Kingdom” was a good ol’ guy but he never got close to the Crocodile Hunter on the passion scale because he never got close to the lions and he never got close to us. Steve was an excitable trespasser who went beyond. And he took us vicariously and reluctantly and willingly along with him to places nice boys have been forbidden to go, hands covering our faces, fingers spread around our eyes. Like a great brand, he transported us. And we loved him for letting us ride shotgun.

Does your brand take you on an emotional journey? Like Mini makes you feel free? Like TaylorMade makes you a feel like a true golfer? Like Apple makes you feel cool? The Crocodile Hunter was true through and through — to the death. In fact, he had to die in the act (can you imagine if he slipped in the bathroom!) in order to prove he was too close, that it was indeed too dangerous, that he was the real thing. If you go back now and look at those previous episodes, you’ll see how they increase in anxiety voltage. What a promise delivered!

Steve Irwin stood for going too far while always knowing the risks. He was never cavalier (except when he held his kid over the croc). He wouldn’t have been who he was if he wasn’t scared. He would have been just another “jackass”-like reality show numbsoul. The Steve brand clearly labeled his fear with a cautious warning: “Now see here, this rare beauty is the most lethal snake in the world and – look — when I get near, she really gets agitated. Yikes! One flick of her tongue on my skin and it’s good night nanny. So we have to be very, very careful… I’ll just nuzzle over and see if she’ll give me a French kiss.” The closer he inched to the jaws of the beast, the closer he got to us. You just knew he loved what he was doing and shouldn’t really be doing it. He was drawn to it beyond reason. His body and soul were in it. In the end he proved that, didn’t he?

Authenticity was essential to the Crocodile Hunter’s success, as it is to any brand. Is your brand true? Or is it a wanna-be? What would it be willing to die for? Was it worth it for Steve? I’d say no, his kids would say no. What would Steve say? I’m not sure. That’s why we watch, write, care.

Steve will outlive his death. (In fact, I’m not sure he’s really dead. How can you kill the Crocodile Hunter? Don’t you think deep down he’ll bounce back?). He lives on not only because we have him saved on our DVRs, but because he mattered to us. We attached. And the boundary of life/death will not separate us from the cheerful trespasser. Now there’s his memory, his zoo, videos, books to attach to. There’ll be line extensions coming up, no doubt. Inspired ideas like “The Crocodile Hunter Safari,” where you can safely get too close to wildlife. Maybe even dives at the spot where the stingray got him.

So ask yourself, would your brand outlive its initial incarnation? Write your brand’s obit. What would be the outpouring from its customers? Would they sniff sniff and politely forget to come to the funeral because they had to be at a shoe sale? Would they throw themselves into the grave and vow to always be loyal to its everlasting spirit? Would they do the tango on its gravestone?

Ultimately, it wasn’t the love of animals. Or the danger. Or the accent, floppy haircut or even the short pants. It was the dangerous love. He loved beyond. And he got that back. Poetic how the dangerous lover would get the stingray’s barb in the heart. But the brand beats on, mate.

    THese are quality wrenches but the tray is flimsy and really can’t be used to hang the wrenches.
