Does anyone know how old he was? I'm not coming up with anything.

I'll watch the 2nd half of his last video when I can be alone to shed a tear.

Watching his "I'm dead" video now.
What an epic way to say goodbye.

God Speed Mr Harrell, I look forward to shaking your hand someday.

Prayers for your family

RIP Marine.

I really liked Paul.

RIP Paul. Sad news for sure. He was one of the good ones , and I looked forward to his videos every installment. Praying for Paul's family and friends. He's of the few guys I'd have love to talk to, and shoot with. Just a super cool guy, who understated his abilities, even though he won tons of medals and trophies.

Interestingly, he didn't think he'd live long enough to watch the Super Bowl last February. I say "interestingly" because his "I'm Dead" video was recorded when he thought he only had a month left.

Like a poster before me posted, He was the Andy Rooney of the You Tube gun channels.  

Great substance and no bullshit.  He was not pimping a certain brand or product and simply gave his advice on what worked for him.

RIP Brother.  Glad you are no longer in pain.

RIP Paul!

I remember I started watching him when his intro featured all his medals as his intro.

Lost way too young, the amount of knowledge he had and how humble he was will be missed. Will continue to watch his brother as he takes the full reigns.

His coverage of the Miami Dade FBI shootout is a great watch if you've got 30 minutes

One of the best comments I read on that video:  Paul’s last lesson was a master class in dying with grace and dignity.

That was a big part of his charm.  It wasn’t about buying stuff to replace training and understanding.   He was frank.

RIP Mr. Harrell.

I always enjoyed his videos and so probably did most anyone who looked for any kind of gun info on the internet.

RIP Paul.

His videos were great, he seemed like a real good guy.
A true loss to the firearms community.

In his diagnosis announcement video he said "Don't be sad it's over. Be happy it happened." That's stuck with me. I've since used the expression with my kids. Excellent words to live by.

RIP

About 50% of the stuff he put out is stuff that I’m not interested in. However, I watched him very often because he was the most down-to-earth and genuine gun tuber. He was never over the top, and came off as no-bullshit which is something you don’t see very often.

He seemed like a solid guy, great 2a advocate, and was never beholden to advertisers.

Story is getting picked up by some big news outlets: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13812309/paul-harrell-youtube-dies-apologizing-fans-video.html

The mods on /k/ turned off the image and reply limits for their thread, probably getting pinned.

Looks like even the leftists are missing him.  Since his videos were apolitical I see lots of "as a lefty gun owner I'm going to miss him because he is one of the few people not shilling for rightwingers" type comments on his YouTube channel.
