A risqué photo shoot featuring Robert Irwin has gone viral, and everyone’s saying the same thing.
Most people picture the son of late Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwi in his australia Zoo khaki uniform, but shocking new photos have broken the internet.
The racey new photos are the new ads for Bonds, an Australian underwear brand that’s launching in the U.S.
Irwin is posed in various sultry shots in only underwear from the brand in a range of different colors.
People were quickly drawn to some photos in particular, which pay homage to his family’s animal conservation legacy.
Speaking with people, the 21-year-old gives an insight into the new campaign.
Irwin reveals: “It was a pretty immediate yes. I wish I could say I was very suave and cool about the whole thing, but I was like, ‘Yes! Let’s do it!’ Because Bonds in Australia is an absolute icon.”
The tv personality adds: “I’m at this point in my life where I’m trying to do as many different and random exciting things, and if it’s something that makes me a little bit nervous, that I’ve never done before and it’s a bit of an adrenaline rush? That’s what I want to be doing.”
The ‘Down Under’ shoot not only included a half-naked Irwin but also had guest appearances from venemous animals, such as snakes and lizards.
When asked about the use of the creatures in the photoshoot, the star shares: “I mean, I’ve spent my life wrangling crocs and snakes and rescuing animals.
“And so, to feature a little slice of that excitement in this new campaign, mate, it has been so much fun. I mean, I’m surrounded by spiders and snakes except [this time] I’m in my undies. That’s the only difference.”
The 21-year-old also reveals it’s far scarier ‘getting your gear off’ than ‘wrangerling with a croc.’
The conservationist adds that due to his lifestyle, he always has to stay fit: “I’m saving crocodiles, I’m in and out of the Aussie bush every day, and it’s hard work, so you’ve got to keep pretty good upper body strength, good stamina.”
Irwin says his family has been supportive of his new campaign and hopes it will bring more awareness to animal conservation.
The TV personality emphasis: “We are all trying to continue an important legacy that my dad started. I’ve gotten to find my own individual ways of doing that, and sometimes that comes in the form of modeling Bonds!
“It seems so out of the ordinary for what I would do, but I get to be with Aussie Wildlife. I get to approach a new audience, a new platform, and get my wildlife conservation message out there to more people. And that is what means so much to me and my family.”
Bonds’s racy shoot has definitely made an impact, going immediately viral. Some fans love the new photos, but others are unsure how to feel.
One person writes: “I watched this person be born! Robert Irwin thirst traps weren’t on my 2025 bingo card.”
Another adds: “I don’t know if to look away… I remember when he was young now he’s a full-grown man!”
“Whoever came up with this whole concept needs a pay raise… Great work!” a third responds.
A fourth jokes: “I remember when he was born. I should be retired… not feeling these feels!”
Fans were also quick to point out one hidden detail in one of the snaps. At first glance, it appears Irwin has a spider tattoo on his shoulder, but on closer inspection, the 21-year-old actually has a giant spider crawling on his bare body.A shocked social media user comments: “Not me thinking the spider on his arm was a tattoo and not a real one!”
