Ice Breaker is the name of a 2004 documentary set in the Antarctic and was hosted by Steve Irwin. In it he is shown interacting with penguins, Leopard Seals and humpback whales in their own environment.
In June 2004, allegations were made that he came far too close and disturbed the wildlife, including where he slid down hills with penguins. The Australian government launched an investigation, but subsequently, the matter was closed without charges being filed.
