Paul Harrell, a popular YouTube firearms educator, has passed away at age 58 from pancreatic cancer. Harrell announced his death through a posthumous YouTube video titled “I’m Dead”, filmed in December 2023. In July 2023, he had informed his followers of his diagnosis in a previous video, explaining that the cancer had spread to his bones.

In his farewell message, Harrell requested that his followers continue supporting his channel and Patreon, avoid pirated versions of his content, and disengage with those who spoke negatively of him. He expressed gratitude to his subscribers for their support and hoped his videos had been helpful in teaching viewers about firearms.

His brother, Roy Harrell, will now take over the channel and continue producing content as per Paul’s wishes.
