Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Venomous snakes and biting crocodiles - that is the world of South African YouTube star Graham Dinkelman, nicknamed 'Dingo'.
But now his passionate business has become his fatal undoing. A month ago, the father of three was bitten by a green mamba. As a result, he suffered an anaphylactic shock and was put into an induced coma.
"Dingo fought incredibly hard"
His wife has now posted on Facebook: "Dingo fought incredibly hard during this very difficult time. We know he fought to be here with us and we are so grateful for that." Sad postscript: "Sadly, my beloved husband passed away peacefully today surrounded by his family."
