Hey everyone,
Once again, I'm not dead. That was a hoax.
I'm not dead until you get an official announcement FROM THIS CHANNEL.
We really appreciate you Paul. You’ve made an impact on all of us. You’re an incredibly knowledgeable individual and we will always be grateful for what you’ve done for the gun community.
Paul, keep rockin and rollin!
Just come back checking this video again. It is good to hear this!!!!
Based Paul
Who said you were dead? (Glad you’re still kicking)
Hey Paul, I’m sure we’d all still love to hear more of your stories and life lessons as long as you’re able, even if you’re not out on the range 👍
Did not expect to see you here.
Yes that would be a good thing but I'm sure Paul wants to spend as much time as he can with his family.
He will be gone in about a month or two. It's amazing that he's lasted this long. I've helped take care of someone who had this and it's not like any other cancer. It's very sad.
Oddly enough I was thinking last night that it had been a while since I had seen Paul@@WayStedYou
Amen
Paul you are a tough man. Thanks for all your advice.
This got me in the feels
It’s over
Yep
Man I like Paul
As it did to us all, polekat
For real.
Sgt. Harrell,
I served with you for a short time in the 1/162 before you were deployed. It was almost 20 years ago now but I do remember training under you as a young
Private and I will never forget the positive example you set as a soldier and a leader. Thank you sir for the memories and for the channel, I have always enjoyed the videos they have always been entertaining and informative.
With all respect I have read some comments that you are dealing with pancreatic cancer. My father dealt with this in 2017 and I want you to know my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Lance Peoples
🫡🥺
We are all thinking about him, he is a hell of an Infantryman. "Follow me!"
Yes, I remember you. Great to hear from you.
respect @@PaulHarrell
Good on ya, Lance! Well said and I'm sure it's well deserved.
Paul isn’t stepping down, he’s just taking a Shatner-esque pause.
Godspeed, Paul. Forever grateful for everything.
That's beautiful, man.
god damnit, now i'm cryin again. Well said, brother.
Go peacefully into the long goodnight.
That's what I needed to read
Me……too.
We sure are gonna miss you Paul. But we welcome Roy with open arms.
You know there is no way you can be right. So far, he acts like a fucking DUD.
Looks like another THUG / STATUTE ENFORCER / TAX MAN.
What's wrong with Paul?
Pancreatic cancer @@dewood9463
@@dewood9463 I don’t know if his explanation video is still up but he has Pancreatic Cancer.
@@dewood9463 He has pancreatic cancer.
Damn, this hurts on another level. I dont idolize public figures, but Paul has been incredible. I hope you recover, and we welcome your brother in your absence.
And in his trademark, zero-attention-to-himself style, Paul walks out of our lives.
well said
And if you listen around the 28 second mark you can hear Paul take a big breath off camera, idk if it was from the effort to walk or maybe getting a little choked up, but you can tell he waited to be off camera for that. Such a professional, class act. Paul really is the greatest.
I noticed that sigh too.
One of God's own prototypes.
Damn I’m emotional
Mr. Harrell, I'm a long-term viewer and I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for everything that you've taught me over the years. This goes well beyond the subject matter itself and your highly effective presentation skills - You embody the humility, self-discipline, social/physical conflict resolution skills, and restrained confidence that only very few men have, and for that you will always be a role model of mine. You are widely loved, and I will be praying for you everyday sir.
Well said!
I will always remember meeting Paul in Lake Ozark in 2023.
Paul, I very rarely ever leave comments, but I find myself with an overwhelming need to just reach out and say thank you. Thank you for what you've given to the firearms community, thank you for the valuable lessons you've taught us, and thank you for being someone I could look up to. The world would be a much better place, if even just 1% of the population had a modicum of your graciousness, humility and honor.
Your videos have entertained me in dark times, have made me a more responsible gun owner, and have allowed me to help educate others in firearms safety/responsibility. So once again, with all my heart: thank you Paul.
Well said sir
👍👍👍👍👍👍🔔😎🇺🇸
I couldn’t say it any better than HighlandMac Greggor. I am so, so sorry that a good soul like you has to go through such an ordeal. My thoughts and, more importantly, my sincere prayers are with you. Thank you for all you have taught not only about guns but about life. Your reward awaits you. Godspeed, my friend.
Good to meet you Brother Roy. Welcome to our community, and thank you for picking up, and carrying the flag.
Here here
Sir,
I am a retired LEO and long time Firearms Instructor. One of the best compliments I have ever received was when a student told me I reminded him of you. I thank you for your work, your wit,
and your calm, low-key style. I wish you the very best.
heart warming comment to be compared to Paul is an honor
Paul, I'm a 40-something combat veteran who listens to you with the fascination of a 12 year old Boy Scout. You're quite possibly the finest firearms instructor to ever grace this earth. No one can replace you.
I will not be replacing him as we all know there is no duplicate to Paul. Pls give me and the rest of the crew a chance to continue Paul's hard work.
@@royharrell1760 Welcome Roy don't be to upset at the comments, just be yourself and continue the Harrell tradition, oh and maybe change your name to Paul so the guys don't pick on you to much. 🤣😂😇
Welcome Roy. Looking forward to your content. Best wishes and a mighty salute to Paul from an old soldier and brother in arms.
Welcome Roy!!!!
@royharrell1760 I'm sure the lions share of us will welcome you and the crew with open arms and we all wish you the best of luck.
Nobody can replace you Paul. Praying for you, keep up the good fight. Godspeed to you brother...
I'm not going to be sad for you Paul. Instead, I choose to celebrate that we ever had a man like you to look up to in the first place. Godspeed my brother, you will be in my prayers...
Amen to that
Amen times 1000! 🙏
Amen brother, we were blessed with such a great role model and teacher, and we should be thankful and celebrate his life and his achievements and all that he did to help others become better themselves. God bless you all
@@adenkyramud5005 The best thing we could do to honor him would be to pass on his teachings to others and to be more like him as a gun community as a whole (or at least individually).
And totally agreed. God bless you brother.
@@NicholasWiewiora i fully agree. I like using his videos to teach others and educate them on firearms, especially as they are not as well understood over here as they are in other places.
Never in the gun community will Paul be forgotten. Expertise, Experience, and Honor. We respect you Paul and wish you Peace.
I'm not a part of that community ...Paul is a good dude even when I don't agree with him...center left guy
you can be "center left" and still own guns@@dmsawyer
He will, people forget fast. Everything in this world is vanity.
I look forward to seeing Roy’s content, however, I don’t think I’m alone in sayin there will only ever be one Paul Harrell. No one will be able to deliver presentations the same way! Much love and respect Professor Harrell!
Right you are andrew!
Man it's not just the delivery. It's the vast real world knowledge, perspective, intelligence and honesty
So true. Most logical, well explained firearms channel creator of all time !
Maybe Shatner. He would need you jacket and some meat targets.
i call him doctor harrell.
The world just got a pretty big chunk sadder hearing those words from Paul. I'm so sorry. It shouldn't have to end this way.
Why is he leaving? He’s leaving RUclips?????

A chunk sadder... more apt words couldn't describe it.
Oh man this hit like a freight train. Thanks for the videos Paul, you will be missed greatly.
Apt.
Agreed. I was just wondering about Paul's health a few days ago. Very saddened to see this.
With tears in my eyes I welcome Roy to the channel. Paul, you are an outstanding example to our entire community and thank you for all of you have given us.
yah i caught the announcement elsewhere and it messed me up the world needs more men like paul I really don't want to lose him he's a living treasure
be proud to sit at his feet while instruction was in session ' reverence for the good teacher,😢
5 months ago Paul specifically asked to be spared condolences, so I will oblige. Still I want to reiterate what many commenters have pointed out before: Paul has left a mark on the world on and off of RUclips and his videos have and will continue to educate, advocate for and, in his own, rather unique way, entertain firearms enthusiasts for a long time to come. A big thank you to Paul for all the work he has done for us and I am sure Roy will carry on well with the channel.
Thank you for mentioning the Channel Update 5 month ago.
I salute you both!
Hope all is well, Paul. Godspeed your treatment and hopeful recovery.
The impact of your contributions to this community cannot be understated.
Sadly, I think his opening statement is pretty clear on the matter.
@@RustyorBroken Then we pray for him and all that know him.
@@RustyorBroken
You can still pray.
Pancreatic cancer is something you hardly recover from. Sadly.
@@mattimatkalainen Again, you can still pray.
The world desperately needs more men like Paul Harrell. Men of great courage , integrity, wisdom & character! 🙏
Fuck .. this hurts wow ... paul you are a shining example of what it means to be a man !
You will be sorely missed, Paul! A true gentleman and scholar! Roy, we welcome you.
Views, subscribers, likes, the numbers be DAMNED; You were, and will always be, the greatest guntuber we've ever had Paul.
You can say that again. The best there is
I’ve tried all day to put it into words. You did it
This is Paul's biggest battle and he is facing it with grace and courage. He is the ultimate teacher for firearms and in this case a role model in how to be a man. God speed and we hope for a miracle.
What happened to him?

Underrated comment
Come on you can't say that dude...
Not as easy as that :'c
Nothing else here made me cry until your comment. I could not have said it better.
agree
Paul, this is really sad news. We all understand your in the fight of your life. It's going to be near impossible to replace your hyper deep knowledge of firearms being delivered by a sweet sarcastic and entertaining style. Thanks for your incredible ability to share your knowledge via RUclips. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Sweet sarcasm. Exactly. We love you, Paul!
Serious question do you think Gun control worked in Australia as I think it is one of the few places it made a big difference.
Didn’t you use to have shootings every year then after port Arthur no more? (Or very rarely.)
No, it didn't fuckin work. What a dumb question. @@kylethedalek
@@kylethedalek- It didn’t change a thing. Mass shootings had been a rare phenomenon in Australia (and most civilized places until the last 20 years). Australia then had a mass shooting followed by the almost predictable additional two copycat incidents. This happens because the shooter becomes infamous and others with serious problems see it as their path to infamy as well. But since the massive gun confiscation and bans in Australia there has been little change to the homicide rate. It goes up to worse than the year of the mass shooting and then sometimes it is lower. So millions upon millions of dollars spent and nothing really changed. Yep no major shootings like the Port Royal incident. But then they wasn’t a history of incidents before the Port Royal incident and the two other in that short period of time. So based on an aberration the government confiscated property from people who committed no crime and in return gave them a society that wasn’t any safer.
@@that1electrician How?
It’s rare they happen there.
Less people have easy access to them to make mistakes or just be irresponsible.
It’s kind of bad when people have to carry guns.
I was star-struck when paul answered my question in the comments. Im so sorry for his and his family's troubles. I love you Paul Harrell!
We will all miss you Paul, and your loss will be a blow to the firearms community. You truly are the best Guntuber out there. Godspeed
Couldn't have said it better..Semper fi Paul
The only "guntuber" I bothered to subscribe to. Sucks
@@icaanul Same here. Don't really care for most of the rest of them.
I’m very sorry to hear that, Paul. Thank you for your service to the country in the Army and Marines and for the invaluable service you have provided via this channel. Be at peace, Brother. You’ve earned your rest. Semper Fi!❤
Nice to meet you Roy. Godspeed Paul.
After seeing the title of the most recent video, it still hits hard knowing that Paul has passed away, he was truly a man of no nonsense and pure information, but we thank Roy for keeping his memory alive
*Welcome aboard Roy! Paul will be missed but Roy, the YT community welcomes you with open arms. Welcome brother!*
Paul Harrell, one of the greatest firearm and outdoors personalities youtube has ever seen. Godspeed and good luck.
Paul is absolutely the realest one out there. Even this video shows what a man’s man he is; short, no whimpering, excuses himself, and lets us, as adults, process the implication.
He is and forever will be a legend.
Just a true stand up guy. Wish I had the luck to meet him.
Paul from one old vet to another. Thanks brother for everything ! Keep up the fight ! Love ya man! 👍🏼🇺🇸
Paul. I wont talk about you like you are gone and I won't say goodbye. I just want to say thank you for sharing your stories with us. You are a valuable and irreplaceable person.
For Roy, nice to meet you.
I've been watching for 7+ years now and I don't intend on stopping. Thank you for everything you've done for us and taught us Paul. Godspeed.
100%
From accidentally stumbling across one of your early videos way back when, up until now, you have entertained and educated me Paul. I have the utmost admiration and respect for you brother. Thank you.
Best wishes Paul. God Bless you and your family. Semper Fidelis!
You’ve done a lot for this community, and we will be here rooting for you in your fight, Paul. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us. This hits like a dump truck. :(
My grandpa passed from cancer a couple years back, and when he was sick, we bonded over your videos. I’ll always remember that. Thanks for everything. God bless.
No sadness. Accomplishing such a triumphant campaign warrants a smile and a nod. You did it, man. Godspeed Paul.
Paul
Thank you for the content, entertainment, and words of wisdom.
I have enjoyed watching your content for years, and am excited to share it with my children when they are of age.
The world is a better place because of men like you. God bless you and your family.
We're going to miss you, Paul. We need more people with integrity, wit, and wisdom like you in the world now more than ever. Your content is refreshingly unique in the industry. You're the realest.
I'm currently 24 years old, and have been watching you since I was in my teenage years. Thank you for everything you have taught us all. You're the dad we all never had.
This here... right in the feels.
Paul, from a 76 year old lifelong shooter and hunter, a proud former soldier in our US Army, and a long time follower of your stories and teaching, thank you and Godspeed. I pray for physical healing, but more importantly for peace and comfort for you and for your family.
You achieved the greatest thing in this life, which is getting to live a full life. Many of the zoomers these days dont understand that many of them will never achieve this, including myself. Keep the money and material things...all I want is to make it to 76.
Praying for you sir.... You make the world a better place. God Bless you
I'm not crying. The Sun's in my eye.
I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I want to tell you, I'm praying for you, Paul. Thank you for all you've done for us.
ninjas chopping onions
Thank you for everything you have done Paul god speed
"A society grows great when men plant trees in whose shade they will never sit."
You've educated hundreds of thousands if not millions of people. Thank you Paul and crew for all that you've done and continue to do.
Great quote, real fitting!
Paul... If you are out there reading this, I just have one thing to say. Miracles happen. In the war against cancer, individual battles can be swayed massively by morale alone. If you have the will to go on, your body can often adapt. If you've decided to give up, the battle is already lost. Sun Tzu said, "If you know your enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the outcome of 100 battles." Never give up, and remember, you have 800,000 cheerleaders who will back you up with their moral support, should you choose to draw upon that. We won't mind a bit!
There’s only two Guntubers that I truly respect and that’s Ian (Forgotten Weapons) and you. No BS, no drama, just facts and good information. I’m glad the channel will be kept going but you will be missed, Paul.
HiCok?
Having met Ian, I don’t think he’s worthy of any respect…
@darklyripley6138 What, you had a bad fan interaction so you think he's just always a horrible person?
@@stickman3214 Was never a fan of his, but I wasn’t negative in my perception of him. Met him multiple times at competitions. He treats people like garbage. He acts like he can’t be bothered, and doesn’t want to be there. He would make little remarks about people, run his mouth behind their backs, etc. And those people actually were fans of his. And I have spoken to a lot of people in the know, and learned that he’s not as knowledgeable as you think. A lot of the videos he does(especially the older ones) were just him repeating information he was told 15 minutes prior. So it wasn’t even like he had his own research into these guns.
@@2006Mercury Nothing wrong with using language that others understand. I cringe when I hear “guntuber”, but I understand why people use that word. Everyone is welcome here, and welcome to learn.
Okay, I'll be honest, this makes me tear up. Any man who records a "shooting from under the covers" video -- with different types of handguns... in bed outdoors -- in the rain! ... with wry humor and one gigantic 6- gun -- "chances are if you're sleeping with this you ARE sleeping alone" -- is a creative, comic genius always to be cherished.
One of the great episodes to be sure
- while wearing Sponge Bob pajamas!... oh yeah :D
Best episode ever!!
My in laws (who are not gun people at all) thought that was the funniest shit ever ... Legendary video
You're not alone brother.
With tears in my eyes and a heavy feeling heart all I can say is Godspeed to you Paul.
Roy, it is a pleasure to meet you! And Paul, I'm praying for you sincerely! May the Lord bless!
Paul, I don't know if you'll be able to sift through every comment left on this video, but I figured I'd better leave one. You're one of the best things to have ever happened to RUclips's gun community, and the 2A community at large. Your presentations are always incredibly informative, well thought out, and unpretentious. In a sea of over-edited productions and fake experts, you continue to shine through as genuinely helpful, funny, and captivating all the while. I can't even begin to tell you how much I look forward to seeing your videos pop up in my subscription box, or how highly I think of your teachings and advice. Perhaps the greatest legacy that one can leave behind is having an impact upon countless others, such that they conjure up memories of you and your lessons well into the future. I was never fortunate enough to meet you in person, but it's safe to say that the name Paul Harrell will always mean something important to all of us. Something badass and Pop-Tart related, no doubt! Your departure will leave an unfillable hole in our hearts, but one that brings forth a teary-eyed, fond reminiscence nevertheless.
Roy seems like a good fellow and reminds me of folks I've worked with over the years, in a positive way. He's got a set of unfillable shoes to step into, but I'm happy that he's gonna give things his best shot.
Oh Paul, so sorry to hear that “time is short.” God heals today, so we are praying for you brother. Welcome Roy, looking forward to your content until Paul is fully healed. 🙏
As a Christian, I do not doubt God's ability to miraculously heal.
However, I'd pray for his soul and that he knows or comes to know, Christ.
I'd rather him be in eternity with the Father than have him making a few more videos and maybe spend eternity in damnation.
@@James_BeeHis soul doesn't need praying for. He is an exemplary human being. One of those people you can look in the eye and just know that you're looking at a man with righteous morals. Whatever god is up there is waiting with open arms for Paul to come share some anecdotes. I pray for his physical health because i know his soul is in better hands than most of our's are.
I've seen what pancreatic cancer does, both my wives parents had this within 2 years of each other. It's very fast and brutal and praying isn't getting rid of it, he's not going to be fully healed unfortunately. He's already lasted longer than both her parents and now he doesn't have long. Just pray for his soul and family because he's not getting cured. This is worse than any other cancer. Basically if you get far enough along to have symptoms then it's very advanced and it's too late 100% of the time. On the rare occasions that they happen to find it from doing some other tests for something unrelated and in that case the people usually make it maybe 5 years.
@@actionjksn Pretty much spot on. Guy I used to work with...I had known the guy for over 20 years...died of pancreatic cancer about 10 years ago. He had had pancreatitis attacks on and off for like 2 years. They did an endoscopy on him around the first of October, said everything was fine. Around the first of November he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and was gone about 2 weeks later. Never seen anyone go that fast from any type of cancer.
@@actionjksn I do know someone who was miraculously healed of pancreatic cancer, so I have faith Paul can be healed as well.
Only a bonafide hoss with a fantastic set of initials would make an “I’m dying, here’s the new guy.” Video less than a minute long. Beat that, Barczyk
Something is wrong with you Brian Barczyk was a fantastic human being we all handle difficult situations differently keep this same energy on the day you're called I bet you're crying like a female dog alone and sad.

Nothing else to say
And he wouldn’t say it to us anyway.
I kneel. We’re truly not fckng worthy.
Paul isn't dead yet though. His treatment is probably causing him quite a bit of pain and making it difficult for him to shoot.
Hence while paul focuses on his cancer, his Brother roy will manage the channel in his absence. If paul recovers he will probably come back but he wants to focus on getting well first.
Also in the event that he doesn't get better. He wants Roy to be the back up plan.
Better to have Roy and not need Roy than to need Roy and not have roy.

Paul, don't ever forget the impact you've had and the love so many strangers around the world have for you. You've taught us so much. Don't see this as "stepping down"; see this as "sailing to warmer shores".
I'm sure it has been said before but I would like to say it now. We love you Paul and we appreciate the time spent with you and we are truly grateful to have gotten to learn from you and be entertained by you. You are by far my most favorite creator on the platform and it hurts even writing this. I earnestly pray that a merciful god will extend to you his blessings and protection.
I don’t typically cry over YTer stuff, but this is getting to me. We love you Paul and will always miss you. I’m praying you enjoy these remaining days with your friends and family happily and pain free.
Right..im a gun newbie and Paul has been very influential to my development and understanding...im praying to the Lord Jesus for grace and mercy for you and your family...I appreciate you and so does your fans!
Damn, I feel the same- THIS one cuts deep and wide. I wrote a whole long comment here a few minutes ago, it just sucks. We get to know these folks a good bit- their quirks, mannerisms, how they do stuff and why. I've watched a LOT of hours of Pauls content, and you can't help to be familiar with the man... it becomes kinda this weird relationship thing, like with a talk radio personality, you know, sort of one sided, but just much more useful in Pauls case. And I'll stop rambling now LOL I just wanted to let you know that you are far from alone and I'm glad you put yourself out here too- I appreciate you sharing your feelings and want to say thanks, as silly as it sounds, it helps to know other folks feel the same or similar
Thank you very much for all the videos, Mr. Harrell. I sincerely appreciate all the knowledge you have passed on to us over the years. I learned a lot from you. Your presentations were concise and on point, which make them enjoyable to watch. You DO NOT have any impediments!
I know all too well the seriousness of what you are dealing with. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
I'd be lying if i said there weren't tears in my eyes as i write this. I would like to thank you, Paul for devoting so much of your time for all these years to bringing us the most entertaining and informative videos. You've taught me so much. You'll never be able to fully grasp the impact you've made in all of our lives. We love you Paul. I'm praying for a miracle.
PAUL: Thank you for your service & all the superb wisdom over the years! You're a great American & a good man!
fuck man this shit made me tear up. Paul whatever tf happens just know youve done such a good job in producing such a master piece of content and why you have such a big following. Know that you have made it to 0.0001% of people that ever live and know your fans and following will always have your back.
Same bro. I've never met him but just the thought of losing such a kind, knowledgeable and wise person had me crying. His videos are to me the epitome of how we should be teaching people about and acting around firearms. And his stories... I'll miss them.
Too much damn dust in this room, got some in BOTH eyes...
I literally cried like I did when I lost my mom when I was 5 and I never met Paul! So Sorry to hear this, I’m still Praying for you Paul.🙏🏻🇺🇸💯🤙🏻❤️🫡
Is he dying?
I agree totally. There are very few gun channels that have 800k followers on 'gun phobic' YT. It is your personal touches that make the content so watchable.
I'm glad Administrative Results sent me over here. I found that I needed to resubscribe because RUclips likes to throttle back the good channels. I've been subscribed for years, I appreciate all of the good content that you have produced! Thank you all for sharing and continuing to share with us, our hearts certainly go out to you and your families.
You’ve been a beacon of non-fluff information. Thank you. Welcome to Roy, but you are ever in my prayers, Paul. You’re a legend.
Thank you for everything Paul. We wish to hear from you soon again and welcome Roy in your place.
Paul told us once that he recommends people go rabbit hunting with their self defense firearms in order to hone their skills. Very simple advice, but it blew my mind. I went "hunting" for the first time, and started keeping the rabbit population down around my house using my ccw. I've never made so much improvement in such a short time as I did then. That's only one example of how he helped me learn to handle firearms in a safer and more effective way. I'll genuinely never forget him, nor would I want to. I'm 29 now, turning 30, but I started watching him in my early 20's. He's been a pretty significant influence in my adult years so far. God bless you, Mr. Harrell. I wish you didn't have to go. Life is a tragedy.
Life isn't a tragedy, he spent his life teaching us and there is nothing tragic about that

Hey Roy, how's Paul doing?
Mr. Harrell, even though many people have offered their comments and well wishes, I doubt you will ever fully realize how impactful your contributions have been to this community. Thank you and get well soon!
Paul, we love you sir, we absolutely do. We are all behind you in this. All…of….us. Keep us posted sir.
Considering that I have never met Mr. Harrell, and know him only through his RUclips channel, this hurts way more than it should. I know I am one of many who will truly miss one of the good guys.
🥺👍
Yes. I've never met him personally, but I feel like I'm losing a good friend.
Mr. Harrell, go with God. I can't thank you enough for how much you've entertained, informed, and enlightened me over the many years.
Thank you.
I have been watching your videos since i was a kid in highschool. Im now a 27 year old man that actually own a gun shop. Paul i am heartbroken. I had to see my father go through cancer and i saw how evil it is. Cancer has taken so much away from all of us and i am so sorry its going to take you away from us. I would be a liar if i said i didnt shed a tear over this. God speed Paul. You've been a stoic inspiration through your ordeal.
I’ll work for you if you live in DFW.
Though I know this and other comments are well intended, I don't think referencing in the past tense is a very good moral picker upper. PLEASE don't take offense. I am beyond words to describe how I feel right now. I actually feel worse than if I had just learned the President of the United States had died in a horrible plane wreck. You see where I am going with this. It is a very, very special individual who creates RUclips videos who has such a loyal and truly loving, in a special way, following. I won't be able to think about much else for a while. You are a special person, Paul. I could not be more sincere when i6say that.
What's Paul's diagnosis? I had no idea about this. I just lost my father WAY too early from cancer and this is fucking terrible news.
Pancreatic cancer @@teddyroosevelt79
@@teddyroosevelt79Pancreatic cancer, late stage. Very little time left. Pains me to even type the words.
We love you Paul. Thank you for everything you have shown us.
You won’t be forgotten. You’ve left a tremendously positive impact on the world and this community. Thank you for all you’ve done and God bless.
Paul, you're a legend. I remember shaking your hand in Sportsmans ww, when you just walked past me in the parking lot out of nowhere, and i thought, man what nice guy in real life, he must get this all the time and still has patience and grace to give people a minute.
Thanks for what youve done. Men in history have crossed oceans and faught wars to achieve less, and often failed. You put your mark on history, and hopefully contributed to the furtherance of the republic for a long time to come. Thank you brother, God bless.
Paul Harrell🇺🇸 You're the Clint Eastwood of RUclips! No one could ever replace you!! 😢
Mr. Harrell - you are a great person, a skilled instructor, an entertaining presenter, and an overall fine human being. Best I've ever seen in what you do. Thanks for all the joy given me in watching over the years. My hat is off to you Sir.
I know this will most likely get lost in the comments and you'll probably never read this, but I do hope that you pull through by some miracle. If not for our sake, then for your loved ones.
I try to read all the comments.
And yes, it would take a miracle for me to get past this. I have only a couple of weeks left.
Your kind words are greatly helpful. Thank you.
@@PaulHarrell I hope that I can find the courage, strength & dignity that you possess when it's time for me to face my own mortality. This channel is an important part of your legacy, and it will continue to serve & educate humanity for decades (and hopefully for eternity) to come. God bless you & your family.
@@PaulHarrell @truthlight2816 I am going to name the shooting range on my homestead "Meat Target Ridge" in your honor. And I will throw in a shatner-esque pause in your honor every once and a while when filming videos too.
I have watched probably 90% of the videos you have ever made, and enjoyed them all. God bless you, from one old Grunt to Another. God speed.
"Follow me!"
@@PaulHarrell The best any man can hope to achieve in life is to leave the world better than he found it. You've done that - and to an incredible degree. You've touched many, many people and your influence has been both solely positive and wide in scope. Don't forget that. We certainly won't forget you, whatever happens going forward.
@@PaulHarrellYou are one of the best I have every had the privilege to watch and listen to, Paul. I wish I could have shook your hand and gave you a hug. Your strength is unbelievable. I'll see you on the other side, brother.
Keeping it short and to the point. Thank you, Paul! Hello and welcome Roy.
Welcome, Roy. I have huge respect for your willingness to carry on Paul's great work. Thank you for stepping in during an unimaginably tough time, I look forward to what you have to teach us.
Paul, I know that you warned us against sappy well wishes and condolences and I hope you can forgive those of us who couldn't help ourselves, you're truly irreplacable and will never ever be forgotten. Semper Fi till the very end, and thanks for everything.
I think it's noble the way that you're gently bowing Out and letting your brother take over the content of the Is channel. Needless to say those of us who have suffered cancer or have had those in our lives who have suffered cancer Understand the life-changing circumstances that take place. God bless you on your journey from this moment on
I stand in admiration of your unflinching dignity. You are living the life of a non-frivolous person. Thank you for the seriousness with which you treat everything. This channel and Ian's channel are the only gun related channels I take seriously. I will support Roy in your honor.
Who's Ian? I don't think I've come across that channel.
@@GreekGuru74 ian mccollum, he runs the forgotten weapons RUclips channel
I have the same sentiment I want to share. And I hope to leave it here as a memorial, that many of us are inspired.
Thank you Paul, for not only the firearm knowledge you have shared. I am truly inspired by the way you carry yourself and the exemplary display of your behavior and outlook. Your demeanor and approach to life have been a remarkable example for me to follow. Your influence has shaped my perspectives and encouraged me to strive for excellence in my own actions and interactions.
@@rainbowroad1000that Ukraine supporting bastard
@@rainbowroad1000 he also likes men. not even remotely comparable to Paul, and certainly not even half the man he is.
This guy sent me this way? Brandon Herrera. Sub & LIKE
It's been an honor Paul. May God bless you and wrap you in his peace, may His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. Amen.
Roy is a great guy , personal friend , and very knowledgeable. I know he will do well. Paul you will be deeply missed.
Is he a member of what Paul often calls "the crew"?
Is he funny though?
@@WhiteTrashTennessee Not the time .
@@WhiteTrashTennesseeI have my moments.
@@nickma71Yes, and his only brother.
Paul, thank you for all of the information, smiles, laughs, thought provoking discussions, data, Halloweens, Thanksgiving and Christmas mornings, and most of all for the care that you put into this. Welcome Roy.
This has always been mine and my wifes favorite channel. We really hope to hear from you again if you can. We all love you paul.
Mr. Harrell, your opinions may not originate in the mind of greatness, but your life lessons do.
You have been an invaluable resource to Americans and gun owners the world over.
Thank you, sir. Godspeed.
I’m keeping you in my prayers, Paul. You have stepped up and been a father, a brother and a role model to more men and women than you’ll ever know.
What's happening to him
@@user-zr3rs3cu3t He has pancreatic cancer
@@user-zr3rs3cu3tNot sure if anything to do with his pancreas cancer but I think maybe. I tried to post that he should eat 2 maybe 3 apple seeds a day to kill the cancer, I think they never read it. Or start eating apricot seed or the whole fruit. A lot of content about that on the internet. Chemo is probably killing him more than the cancer. Cancer industry is on full mode in the US. Read about Doctor Gerd Hamer on cancer too.
@user-zr3rs3cu3t pancreatic cancer. It seems as though he doesnt have too much longer left
@@user-zr3rs3cu3t He’s fighting pancreatic cancer and, based off of this video and it’s intro, it sounds like it isn’t going well.
Nice to meet you, Roy. Thanks for all of the wisdom you have shared, Paul.
I have absolutely loved watching your videos over the years, thank you for the lessons, great stories, great information and the laughs.
