Australian officials have handed over the last tape of 'Crocodile Hunter' Steve Irwin's death to his wife, Terri.
All other copies of the naturalist's fatal encounter with a stingray have been destroyed in order to prevent it from ever being shown in public.
Irwin died on September 4 last year when a stingray barb pierced his heart whilst he was filming a television documentary.
His wife, Terri Irwin, said that she didn't want the footage to be shown on TV.
The Queensland state coroner told the BBC: "The footage has been the subject of widespread media interest and it was wholly appropriate that we took all possible steps to ensure something of such a personal and tragic nature did not fall into the wrong hands.
"This is in line with the wishes of Irwin's family."
