My dad was a huge fan of Deadliest catch, especially Phil. My brother happened to run into Phil at a store in Seattle about a year or so before he died, and he told Phil that my dad, who was going through cancer at the time, was a huge fan of the show. My bro asked for an autograph, and Phil instead said “why don’t you give your dad a call.” He talked to my dad for about 10 minutes, just shot the breeze about boating and what not. Truly kind hearted guy. RIP
you all prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know a method to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow forgot the login password. I would love any help you can give me!
I got to meet Phil a few years ago. My son is mildly autistic and doesn't talk to strangers, but he was able to walk right up and ask to touch the tattoos on Phil's arm. He was so nice to the kids and they felt so comfortable with him, and it was heartwarming to watch this tough sea captain smiling and laughing with these little kids.
This show has never been the same since Capt Phil passed. I stopped watching it after he passed. He was my favorite. He was such an awesome man. A good father and good captain to his crew. So heart wreching for his family and friends. RIP captain Phil. Even though it's been 11 years since he has been gone my heart aches.

Some would argue the worst. The show is amazing don't talk shit about it, that's mad disrespectful for all the fishermen out there busting their asses!
I know the pain, watching your own father deteriorate. I lost my dad January 22nd of 2021. Cancer took him so fast. 34 days after his diagnosis, he passed away. This just brought back flashbacks. Rest in peace, Phil.
My old boss told me that him and his friend had the same cancer the only difference was his friend went to the hospital and found out my boss didn’t know he had cancer so he told me he believed his friend died because his hopes went away when he found out he had cancer meanwhile my boss lived 15 years and counting longer than his friend he told me it’s all in the mind
I was doing ok until he told his son Jake he was sorry that he hadn’t been a better father to him. I think a lot of dads feel that way like there’s always something we wish we could do over. That scene hit me hard and I cried like a baby and even teared up when I tried to talk about it. It’s. 2021 and I still miss Capt. Phil. 😞
At least he got the chance to tell him…sadly, that doesn’t always happen. I can’t believe he’s been dead for 11 yrs-wow, where has time gone??!!! I loved this show, used to watch it all the time, till my former spouse & I split & I cut the cable tv off the day after he left.
Same with my dad, he had a stint that collapsed and apologized to me for not being a better father, I replied it takes 2 to tango pops. We always butted heads, probably because we were so alike, but I appreciate the man he was to me everyday that passes by.
The thing about being a dad, is that as a man it is ingrained in us that we need to be the providers. This ofte. Leads to less and less time spent with the family. Ive seen multiple marriages broken due to the man working multipme jobs to take care of the family and the "you were t around enough" excuse is thrown at them.
He actually told that to Josh at the hospital, and Josh told Phil he had nothing to be sorry for that he’d been a great dad and taught him how to be a man.
I still tear up when I watch this, I miss seeing old Phil at the helm of the Cornelia Marie. But I'm sure he's smiling now watching his eldest boy run the boat!
What I love about this video is not only the music but also the love these tough guys show. They're not afraid to show their emotions. They're rivals and in the same situation when it comes to catch crabs. And when such a devastating tragedy strikes, they show their true feelings. They's like brothers. They are so united and all share their emotions. I love them all, especially the Hillstrand brothers. I love this show because this is real life and no set up or script written. And is there anybody who doesn't love Phil?? He was so beloved and is still dearly missed. This vid brings me to tears every time I watch it. Amazing music and one of the best vids ever made! So thank you for this. Deadliest catch is easily one of my most fav shows ever.
I watched these shows because of the strength I felt from these men. I appreciate their journeys, families, highs and lows!!! Helped me to keep going, I lost my second son to a car accident. You all kept me encouraged . God bless!!!
The images in this video make you realize that even though this was a TV show, behind all the drama and the cameras, the people on these shows are human. Everyday people like you and me and not everything is a put on for the ratings. I know that some may think that patronizing his hospital stay was uncalled for but I think it reflects the "Real Reality" of this show unlike so many others. I know it has been a few years since his passing but R.I.P Phil and prayers to his family.
This shit still puts a lump in my throat when I watch it even these years later. I don't think a television show has ever made me feel that way before.
That was the hardest part of this, I really got sideswiped when they showed all this footage. It was very unexpected. I can't imagine being the cameraman filming these guys going through this, not sure I'd have the stomach for it.
They all have contracts with the show so no mater what the shows getting there footage. Yes they probably don’t film everything but when they can it’s appropriate they will
@@ryans413 after all theyve Been through im Sure the Producers wouldnt have Put the Fototage Out there If the Family was against IT. They lived on the boat and probably became Friends
My husband and I had the pleasure of meeting Captain Phil! He was so friendly and kind! We cried like babies when we heard he had gone on to his next journey! We have a couple of the photos we took with him! I have had a picture of Capt. Phil for my email posted since his passing! We dearly loved him! We miss him so much and the tears still come when ever I see anything about him! Truly a wonderful person!
Linda F. Riddle I wish I had met him. What a dear friend he is, it's not the same without him. And I'm sure Phil is so proud of his son taking care of the boat. And he's full captain and owner. He'll always keep the legacy for generations to come.
cheers up my favorite song Ricardopinto remember anyone boat my friend and other people would say it and other things that were really good for me and other guys
it gets me too.... It breaks my heart to see him so weak. I lost my pops too and its just so heartbreaking to not see them like the heroes we're so used to seeing. To see them in pain.
I used to watch Deadliest Catch back in 2009. I watched it every day before I had to go to school. He was a cool guy. I didn't know he was gone until now, it brings tears to my eyes.
One of my favorites!!! He’s been gone 10 yrs and I ran across this video today in August 2020 ... cried my eyes out as if he was part of my family!!! I’m miss him 😢🤧
Still gets me upset when I see, hear, or think about this... My dad died when I was 3 so I know nothing about him really.. but I imagine my dad being the kind of man Phil was... Tough in a sense but caring at the same time.. Miss you captain Phil.. the world hasn't been the same since you left
to be clear Phil Harris was everyone's family member. I took his death very personal and I only know him through "the deadliest catch" RIP friend Phil.
So many of us did, we all know a Phil Harris type of person, a light that shines brighter then anyone else’s and it’s always snubbed out too early! Rest In Peace Phil! Crazy that we still talk about you my friend!

That used to be the only episode in tv that made me and my big brother cry because it was really similar to what happened to our dad, unfortunately i lost my big brother to covid three years ago, this video goes through my head every other day... wherever my brother and father are, i will never stop loving them
my dad also died of a stroke just a few weeks before i watched this episode. he was a great dad and i miss him every day! i thought i could watch it now without tears in my eyes, but i failed.
Just started Deadliest Catch from the beginning a month or so ago. This hurt me so much. Phil was an amazing man and my favorite FV captain. Rest In Peace.
So like if you don't know the story at all and you just came across this video he seemed okay at the hospital - he was alive and talking to everybody and the next thing you know everyone was crying and at his funeral. I guess the middle part there is that he took a sudden turn and ended up passing away. Very sad. He looked like he was going to recover.
Thank you chrinamint, it is a bit confusing. When people pull out of a stroke we assume they're home free, but so many complications can arise after, even organ failure.
It's hard to believe it's been 12 years since you've been gone this video of your passing still takes a chunk out of a person but we know you're up in the big deep sea of heaven crabbing your heart out RIP ALWAYS SKIPPER.
I am Portuguese and I see radical fishing, Phil Harris great man who despite all the obstacles in his life fought and went and created his great legacy captain of a crab boat, it is this kind of person who can say "I do not care the force of the blow that can you give but endure the blow of force continue and advance this rather makes us immortal and only ones .. Lengths to the children of Phil continue what your father build and have pride in the man he was and can be assured that continues to look for you .. Every time you think it to look at the sky and smile he'll be up there and reward you with a smile back .. Lengths brother and good luck in life
Years later and this video still gets to me. In 2014 I lost my father to a suicide. There was no "saying goodbye". I've often wondered, what's more painful? To watch your loved one slowly passing or just have it suddenly happen and it's over. If I had a choice, I wish I could have looked my father in the eye and told him how much I loved him. Fortunately, we had a close relationship and he knew how much he was loved. I miss him terribly as I'm sure Josh and Jake still miss their father.
My mom suffered a hemorrhagic stroke at the end of 2018. She had to be in the ICU for 3 weeks just to make sure she didn't have another one. Unfortunately Phil wasn't so fortunate. I remember when this happened. Very sad. RIP Phil Harris.
I cry every time I watch this. My dad and I watched this together and he would chuckle at some of the things Phil would say. And he told me that Phil had passed away. Then my dad met the Lord 8 months after Phil. I hope they meet.
I started watching Deadliest Catch long ago, I think it was in 2009. I loved the show and Phil was my favorite Captain. I watched all the other FV Captains react and it really hurt me too. Soar high, Phil, you are sorely missed!
A fan of Deadliest Catch. Phil was one of my favorites. He loved everyone, including everyone he met. He had a good heart. Very sad he left the Earth way too soon. R.I.P. thank you for all of the good episodes. You'll forever be missed, and loved by so many people.
Phil and Sig were always my favorite but I had a special place in my heart for Phil. He saw things for what they were and told it like it was...always. He reminded me of my uncle who passed a few years ago- hard as nails but had the biggest heart. I broke when this episode aired and he passed away. Life just isnt fair sometimes. 😞
When Phil passed it was like losing a father...me and my dad cried together...My dad is a great dad and spoiled my brother and I..but he always looked at Phil and wished he could have been that kind of father...but what he doesn't know is that he is like Phil in many ways..Love ya Pops and rest high in Heaven King Phil Harris!!!When I watch this I can never get over how Edgar and Jake Anderson are just so sad....Especially Jake....Phil's death shook him hard!!!I never take eating crab for granted and refuse to take a bite until I say a prayer and a thank you to the crabbers that make it all possible!!!
everyones dies but not everyone is loved but cap phil was loved by everyone who knew him or like me who only knew him through watching deadliest catch, sail on phil
I feel weird being so emotional for someone I never met, but I feel like I got to know through this show. Hell of a hard worker he was, hope he's proud of what he left behind, because it's still going.
I often think people like him are as close to immortality as one can get, being remembered long after you're gone, that's got to be a hell of a like to lead and leave an impact like that.
I met phil twice as a kid, Always watched the show, i couldn't stand to watch it after phil passed away and Derrick got brought in as a captain. He got brought in with this Holeyer than thou attitude and didn't even care that the entire crew was still grieving and when Jake called him out on after the catch and he ran away, that was the greatest moment on TV.
Everytime i see this episode i still cant hold back my tears, its true when capt phil died the show was never the same with out him. He was like one of the pioneer captain of the show. I do miss him, and josh is like the spitting image of his father. Rest in peace capt phil! We surely miss you 😭
12 years later and this still puts a lump in my throat. Phil was such a great guy and captain. My favorite of all the skippers, lookin' for those crab farts.
I never watched this show but this clip has made me binge watch it. I am so sorry for everyone that seemed to really love and respect him. I feel their pain in every way. So now I will wipe my tears and binge on the rest! I hope his boys are well. 💔💗💖
My dad is going through the same at this moment. He’s still with us but is only getting worse by the day. Idk what I’m going to do without my worlds strongest man. I’m still super young, 34yrs old. I’m still learning and still need his guidance. All his daily phones calls and texts have already stopped. The feeling in my gut is like nothing I’ve ever felt.
When Capt Phil passed away that really took the heart out of the show for me it was very hard for me to watch because I had gone through the same experience with my dad
I know one day I won’t have my parents around, and just the though of it is devastating to me. rip, and prayers for his children. I can’t imagine the pain 😢
In a world where so many kids are raised without fathers, seeing how irreplaceable the love and influence of a father can be and the void left behind at that loss is a tribute to the man and father he was. God bless.
my father died in my arms... 5 years ago.... i will never forget that night... i can understand perfectly how the sons feel.. R.I.P. captain Stefano from Italy
Thank you for such a beautiful tribute to Captain Phil Harris...he is was and always will be my favorite Deadliest Catch Captain. Just like NASCAR isn’t the same anymore without Dale Earnhardt and Formula 1 isn’t the same anymore without Ayrton Senna, Deadliest Catch isn’t the same anymore without Captain Phil Harris! Sure do miss him!😞😭❤️
R.I.P. PHIL!!! 😢💔😭 It absolutely broke my Heart 💔 when Phil passed away!!! I really didn't think that he would. I thought he was gonna pull through...!!! So Sad!!! 😔 I know the feeling!! I lost My Dad 3 years ago and I lost My Mom last year!! And, My Grandmother last year!! So, I have really been going through it!! It's the hardest thing I have ever been through!!!! So, I know how they feel about losing their Dad!!! GOD BLESS!!!!
It's so hard to believe that it has been 9 years, as it seems like only yesterday. Every single time that we lose one it is felt for a very long time. RIP Phil.
August 4th, 2020. I never really remembered him in the show. I did lots of research and saw how amazing and a loving man he was. Rest In Peace. I tested up watching it. May God bless u all.
Captian Phil Harris will always be in my heart. The Man, They Myth, The Legend. Me and pops always watched the show. Our favorite boats were Cornelia and Bandit. My hearts still go out to his family
