#Nick #McGlashan, a fisherman that appeared on the #Discovery #Channel’s hit reality TV show “#Deadliest #Catch,” has died. #He was 33.
“#Our deepest sympathy goes out to #Nick’s loved ones during this difficult time,” #Discovery #Channel spokesperson #Laurie #Goldberg said in a statement to E.W. #Scripps. “#Nick came from a long line of crabbers and was known for his great depth of knowledge. #He also had a sharp sense of humor, even in the most difficult conditions. #He will be deeply missed by all those who knew him.”
#According to his #Discovery biography, the “#Deadliest #Catch” cast member grew up in #Alaska, started crabbing at age 13, and was a seventh-generation fisherman.
#According to his bio, #McGlashan had a history of alcohol and drug addiction and went to rehab after being kicked off the boat in 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,” the bio said.
#According to CNN, officials did not give #McGlashan’s cause of death, and his death is currently under investigation.
USA #Today reported that #McGlashan first began on the show in 2013 and appeared in spinoffs “#Deadliest #Catch: The #Bait” and “#Deadliest #Catch: #Greenhorn.”
#According to #People, the reality show has had at least six other cast members die throughout its 16-season run.
#Deckhand #Mahlon #Reyes died of a heart attack at 38 over the summer, and skipper #Blake #Painter was found dead in 2018 at his home in #Oregon, USA #Today reported.
