Captain of 'Deadliest Catch' ship suffers stroke

SEATTLE (AP) -- The Seattle-based captain of the "Deadliest Catch" fishing vessel Cornelia Marie has been flown to Anchorage after suffering a stroke while the boat was in port at St. Paul Island, Alaska.
According to the vessel's Web site, Capt. Phil Harris was stricken Friday night. Harris was flown to Anchorage and underwent surgery over the weekend. His sons, Josh and Jake, joined him there.
The Web site account says it may be some time before "anything substantial" is known about Harris' condition.
The Discovery Channel reality show depicts the crab fishing industry in the dangerous waters off Alaska.
The Web site reports a family friend, Derek Ray, has flown to St. Paul to take over the role of relief skipper for the rest of the opilio crab season.
The show's official site has created a page for updates about Harris' condition here.

his son cooked him breakfast sausage sandwiches b/c he wanted him to start eating healthier
chain smoking + not eating + not moving + no sleep + high stress = inevitability

I think that is the guy who almost died from a blood clot a couple of years ago. Those guys lead a pretty unhealthy lifestyle.

There was no doubt it was Phil after reading the title.
Dude snuck out of the hospital in a gown after almost dieing to get a drink and have a smoke.

It was him. He had a blood clot that passed through his lungs I believe, and he survived.

Supposedly, they put him in a drug-induced coma following 12 hours of surgery, in order to reduce swelling on his brain.
That's got to be tough on the 2 kids. And imagine the crew still on the Cornelia Marie -- out on the sea while he's in a coma.
Sometimes it gets real real.
