Jimmy Fallon with Robert Irwin

13-year-old Robert Irwin shares the same passion that his late father did

If you watched Discovery Channel or Animal Planet as a child, then shows featuring Steve Irwin, the crocodile hunter would be right at the top of the to-watch list. Irwin, who died in 2006 after he was stung by an stingray, was famous for wrestling Australian lake crocodiles that grew up to 16 feet. For him, the more dangerous the animal, the more fun it was. Eleven years later, his 13-year-old son Robert made an appearance on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and showed the same enthusiasm. Hell, he even looks like his father, which makes the video even better than it already is.

During the show, Junior Irwin shows a nervous Jimmy Fallon a baby alligator, an armadillo, a red boa, and finally two sloths. While Fallon seems a little relaxed in front of the armadillo and the sloths, his nervousness is evident while Robert Irwin shows him the reptiles. You have to hand it to Fallon to even touch the creatures.
