    I don't give a fuck what ya'll say about reality shows, watching shows like "Deadliest Catch" really put things into a bit better perspective about just how small we really are in the grand scheme of things.


    There is no way you're gonna catch me out there on a boat in the frozen north, fishing for some crabs. That takes a physical and mental fortitude that I simply do not possess.

    Some do, however, and Nick was one of those guys. And anyone who talks shit and says that what they do isn't hard work should be shot on sight, just because.


    None of us ever really know when the Reaper will come for us, but when you're in an industry like that, the chances you won't make it home are greater than the chances that you will.

    Rest in Peace, Nick.
    Don't like what I have to say? I respect that. Go fuck yourself.

    I agree. It's the same for the people who live in Alaska. I couldn't do it. However, I do find people like that ingenious.

    RIP Nick.


    Do the Alaska survivor shows still come on?

    Signs 'Deadliest Catch' Star Nick McGlashan's Death Might Be Drug Related

    https://www.tmz.com/2020/12/29/deadl...-drug-related/

    'Deadliest Catch' star Nick McGlashan appears to have died from some sort of drug overdose ... according to police investigating his death.

    Law enforcement sources tell us Nashville PD got a call to a Holiday Inn outside Nashville Sunday afternoon. We're told Nick had been discovered unresponsive in his room by a friend. We're told the evidence at the scene "indicated the possibility of drug involvement."

    Authorities still need to wait for the results from a toxicology test before making a final ruling on Nick's cause of death.

    McGlashan was a prominent figure on the show ... making appearances from 2013-2020. He started fishing at a young age, just 13, and made his way up to captaining boats like the Cape Caution and Summer Bay -- but he battled addiction with drugs and alcohol along the way.

    'Deadliest Catch': Nick McGlashan's Cause of Death Revealed

    https://popculture.com/reality-tv/ne...3%20and%202020.

    Deadliest Catch star Nick McGlashan died from a drug overdose at a Nashville hotel on Dec. 28, according to the autopsy report. McGlashan starred in almost 80 episodes of the Discovery Channel series between 2013 and 2020. He was a seventh-generation fisherman and was named after a great-uncle who was a pioneer in the American crabbing industry. McGlashan was 33. The Florida resident was reportedly in Nashville to meet friends.

    McGlashan died after taking a "toxic mix of methamphetamine, cocaine, and fentanyl," according to the autopsy report obtained by The Sun this week. He was found unresponsive in his hotel bathroom, according to Nashville Center for Forensic Medicine investigator Krista Hammonds. "The decedent had a known history" of drug abuse, the report notes. Drug paraphernalia was found "nearby" in the bathroom, the report notes. First responders tried to revive him with a defibrillator but were unsuccessful.

    McGlashan's family and the Nashville Medical Examiner confirmed his death to TMZ on Dec. 28, but no cause of death was immediately available. On the next day, law enforcement sources told TMZ there was evidence at the scene that "indicated the possibility of drug involvement," but officials were waiting on the toxicology results before determining his cause of death. "My brother nick passed away. This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to go through. Please hold your loved ones tight," McGlashan's sister tweeted.

    McGlashan joined the Deadliest Catch cast in 2013, but he came from a long line of crabbers. According to his Discovery Channel biography, he was named after a great-uncle who "worked on the first boat rumored to have pioneered the U.S. crab industry, the F/V Deep Sea, built in 1947." His aunts were also crabbers, including one who died on a boat in 1986. McGlashan began crabbing himself at 13, working on his father Bruce's boat. In 2011, McGlashan started working on the Kodiak with "Wild Bill" Wichrowski and eventually became crew boss while Wichrowski ran the Cape Caution and the Summer Bay.

    The reality TV star also struggled with drug and alcohol addiction and spent time in rehab during Deadliest Catch Season 13. "Though he’s had his ups and downs, Nick has battled endlessly to stay sober and embrace a new sober lifestyle and is now so committed to his recovery that he inspires others in their own," his biography reads.
