Phil Harris, the fishing boat captain whose adventures were captured on the Discovery Channel’s “Deadliest Catch” series, died last night. He was 53. Harris suffered a massive stroke on January 29th while his fishing ship, Cornelia Marie, was in port at St. Paul Island, Alaska. Harris was flown to Anchorage for surgery. “Deadliest Catch,” which has filmed five seasons, has been one of the Discovery Channel’s most popular shows. It depicts the crab fishing industry, one of the most dangerous professions in the world. Harris was captain of Cornelia Marie for 18 years.
