Oh no
Am ashamed to hear that Sam Neill encountered ONLINE ABUSE for daring to speak out on behalf of Otago residents who didn't want their beautiful land and forests and fauna (native creatures) destroyed by open cast gold mining.
Why. There are plenty of OTHER places you could find gold, plus all the stuff that's been hoarded by the scrooges of this world, why would anyone want to destroy someone else's homes just to find gold. Priorities people.

If you really wanted, get a salvage permit and go find gold from all the shipwrecks that had gold in their safes. smh.
You don't have to give a portion of what you find to the government that issued the permit?
not sure about that.
It's in international waters so ...?
I think you may need to give some to the insurance companies.
IDK for sure but Kelly Tarlton did it.
He used his money to make an underwater aquarium so us land dwellers could appreciate sea life without getting wet.
That would be awesome. Though I'd still like to cave dive with sharks. Australia has lots of Great Whites from what I've seen on the nature channels. South Africa has done of the biggest.
You live on the edge...
Yea Australia has lots of dangerous beasties. They also have (or did have) the Great Barrier Reef. It might be dying from pollution though.
I heard something about that a few years ago.You live on the edge...

I'd hoped something could be done to save it. Though I don't know how that would be accomplished .
Don’t forget he played the Antichrist early in his career.He beat cancer and then passed away from an undisclosed cause.
So sad. But,he said death didn't scare him. But it would upset him because he has so much more to do.
You done quite enough dear man. Your movies will live on.
Hunt for Red October was my favorite.
And of course,Jurassic Park.
Rest in peace dear sir. May God comfort all who shall miss you.
True. He did it well. RIP.
Sam Neill Played a U.S. Politician and the Antichrist -- in the Same Role
He did everything from Aussie indies to Hollywood blockbusters. But Neill's turn as the son of Satan may be the ultimate testament to his talents.

'He was a Kiwi icon': Sir Sam Neill has died age 78
The actor died in Sydney on July 13 surrounded by family.www.nzherald.co.nz
Why didn't I know he was from NZ? Humm. He was in so many different movies and shows I can't pinpoint just one that I liked. He seemed to be one of those rare ones who could fit so many roles. So sad to hear of his passing.
Yea he was born there but grew up in New Zealand.
And his original/birth name was Nigel. He didn't like Nigel so changed it to Sam.
In New Zealand, anyone called Nigel is automatically named Nigel No-Mates.
Meaning, he has no friends!
