For all you fans. He cheated death once but not this time. I liked him of all the captains on the show. <BR> <BR> <BR><i> <BR>‘Deadliest Catch’ captain dies <BR>Harris suffered a massive stroke on Jan. 29, his family says <BR>The Associated Press <BR>updated 12:48 a.m. ET, Wed., Feb. 10, 2010 <BR>ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A spokesman for The Discovery Channel says the captain of the "Deadliest Catch" fishing vessel Cornelia Marie has died. <BR> <BR>Capt.

How tragic. R.I.P.

He was one of my favorites too. <BR> <BR>R.I.P.

Not for nothing but the guy took brutalizing his body to the next level. I liked watching him and loved his interaction with his kids but it was pretty obvious he wasn't long for this planet. I'll never understand how some chose death over life changes.

I really like that show and hear about this this morning. Capt Phil was always funny when it came around to him and his son's. He will definitely be missed on the show. <BR> <BR>R.I.P.

damn it. show won't be the same without him. RIP Capt Phil

You could see it coming for sure, but the show wont be the same without him. <BR> <BR>R.I.P. <BR> <BR>Capt

RIP, but when you abuse yourself like he did - I remember one episode last year, where he was living on cigarettes and Red Bull for 48 hrs straight without sleep - you kinda get the results you asked for...

I remember when he passed that blood clot thru his heart and the doctor told him he was lucky to be alive, then right outside of the hospital he lit up a cigarette. <BR> <BR>R.I.P.

Yeah. I saw this on the news this morning. <BR>Sad news indeed.}
