Hey everyone: I did OT ask him to do this. Self promotion isn't my bag. However... Thanks for doing this, That's really cool and I appreciate the effort. Seriously, Thank you. My Brother, Roy, will be taking over the channel and will spend many hours boring you with his own anecdotes and life experiences. He spent many years as a boy scout leader and since he's from the Willamette valley, he's one of the few people whose spent more time standing around in the rain than I have. You are indeed fortunate to have a video archive of some of your father's work. My father was a man of wit, humor, and wisdom. I lost him a few months ago and I can empathize with you. And again, than you for this presentation.
Thank you for everything Paul. Your videos are always a wealth of knowledge. I've been subscribed to you for years and you've always been the only person in this space I implicitly trust to be sharing knowledge without any other motivation. Thank you for all the years of work you put in.
My father had pancreatic cancer. He's been in remission for only a few years now but it was awful to see unfold. He survived and has a second lease on life; he turned 70 this past November. I say this to prove that it can be beat and I pray that Paul gets the same chance.
Dude, first of all, i can't describe how happy i feel to hear that your father could go through that ugly disease, and you just gave me so much hope that maybe.. Paul will be blessed and he'll have a second chance to live his life. Wish you the best, as well as your father, and let's all hope and trust in the BEST destiny for Paul. We Love you Paul. We will all be watching your back so that you do Not fall until the end. No matter what happens
I’m always surprised but happy to hear victory stories involving this disease. My dad died of pancreatic cancer about 7 years ago. He lived 7 months after diagnosis. He lived a long life to age 81 but you always want them longer.
I know personally how tough it can be. Lost my grandmother to it a few years back. I'm happy to hear your dad is in remission. You're incredibly lucky indeed, and I'm happy for that.
I checked on Pauls channel this morning. It shows 1 million subscribers. Well done. Also, thank you Admin for sharing your story about your father. God bless.
Let's see if we can get him to a million subscribers before he passes. Seriously, the most milquetoast gun tubers get millions of subs, so it should be no problem. Just go and subscribe.
I'm from Northern Ireland, never fired a gun in my life, never missed a paul Harrell video either. I love his sense of humour and shatner'esque pauses, my father beat three different cancers and thankfully he's still here to remind us of this fact as often as he can 😊 Thoughts, thanks and prayers from Ireland Mr Harrell and thanks to administrative results for what he did here, god bless you all.
@@GiveMeaFuckingBreakDude dear liberal: paul is a good source to watch for his opinions on certain weapons a viewer is thinking of purchasing; so no its just not watching someone shoot;
Totally agree I have no idea why he didn't get there long ago same with Yaeger. I find it strange though how all of these gun you tubers are being silenced one way or another FPS banned/ prison, James Yaeger died , BWE and his wife both died within a few months, CRS Matt Hoover prison now Paul.
Passed away with a perfect number of 1.11m subs. Not only did we reach the goal, but we gave the man all 1s. Its nice to come back to these videos talking with or about paul and just remembering him for the amazing human that he was.
Paul Harrel is a local Oregon guy and he's a legend in this community. Im so sorry to hear he's fighting cancer. Let's get him to 1million. Edit. I lost my Dad to brain cancer about 7 years ago so I feel you man. It still hurts and I dont think it will ever stop hurting. Cheers brother. Keep your head up.
My grandfather, a hard core Blue collar man, someone i’ve looked up to since i was a kid was diagnosed with Stage 4 prostate cancer a couple years ago and he’s coming up on the point where he’s reaching his life expectancy with this illness. My heart goes out to Paul and his family, I wish them well and will pray for them and pray for Him. God bless Paul.
I'm a Canadian. I really like Americans. Paul Harrell has all of the best qualities of you Americans. I have enjoyed the channel for years. Getting the channel over one million was brilliant. Well done. That equates to a million prayers for Mr. Harrell. God bless.
I’m struggling with losing my best friend right now, a day ago. Your sincere tears for your father made me feel a sense of comfort, though I know unrelated. You’re a good man, and I am sure he is proud of you as he resides in Heaven with our Lord. I’ll do what I can to get others to subscribe to Paul. Thank you again.
I lost my best friend since 7th grade a few months back. It was probably the worst day of my life when I found out. It's difficult now but it's going to get way harder in the coming weeks and months. Stay strong my friend, eventually you get over the hill and things start to get better. You're never gonna stop missing them though and they'll always be a part of you.
@@ratgobblerThank you. Sympathy and prayer from anyone is always felt and appreciated. Whether they be a friend, or a stranger. Keep doing the good you are doing.
@@markh.6687 No beard, no sunglasses, no ball cap, no tatts. There's tons of GunTubers who have all those attributes and it's a major detriment. The first 3 conceal portions of the face and impede expression (beard occludes the mouth, sunglasses cover the eyes and ball cap covers the eyebrows and forehead wrinkles). Yes. it IS important to see the entirety of a speaker's facial expressions and Paul knows this.
When you talked about watching videos of your dad, it made me think of Paul's Thanksgiving Special videos. He puts in so much effort every year to be like a father to people who need it.
I’ve never heard of Paul Harrell until a few days ago and honestly, I wasn’t planning on looking him up. On a whim I decided to watch this while I sit with my wife as she goes through her last round of chemo. (Breast cancer) and Admin, you really hit home. I lost my dad 2 years ago to lung cancer. It’s still hard. Cancer sucks. I’m heading over to Paul’s channel to sub. It’s such a little thing but it’s the little things that are huge. ✊
Wow, I'm so sorry to hear about Paul. I'm a Critical Care RN and care for these Case's more than I want to. I was my own Fathers Nurse the last week of his life as he struggled with Lung Cancer so I know what he will go thru. My heart goes out to Paul! Thank you Paul for all your service to all of us nonprofessionals.
Talking about losing your dad and getting misty and broken up got me right in the feels. Shit's hard. Been following Paul for years. But between him and James Yeager, losing multiple people I've looked up to at that level over the past few years just in the guntube space has been rough for sure. But Paul is the real deal and deserves our support. Especially since that support is literally just a click of a button.
I've felt for a long time that Paul hasn't got the recognition that he should. His is one of the best firearm focused channels on the platform. Thanks for sharing your support. Most importantly thank you, Paul.
So, here's the deal. I've been subscribed to Paul for a long time. He's a brother in arms and I like the way he doesn't get into the drama. He's a true expert. Your support of him has earned YOU my sub.
Man, I don’t research anything gun related without going to Paul first. I happened upon his channel years ago when I was buying my first handgun. What a knowledgeable human being, and I absolutely enjoy his dry, to the point delivery. I don’t think any of us are ready to lose him, but I agree 100% that he will live on through the hundreds of videos he’s made for us. He will also live on through channels like yours and what you’ve gained from him. Thank you for sharing him with your followers who may not have known him otherwise.
Paul Harrell is and always will be one of my favorite gun tubers. He has taught me so much about firearms and will always be a beacon of knowledge. I pray for Paul Harrell and his family to find peace.
Paul and his channel are the testiment to the notion that its not the gucci gear that makes you dangerous and effective. its the training and experience that takes the precedent. Dude's a legend
Been a fan and follower of Paul Harrell for a long time. I am a cancer survivor and I lost my father to pancreatic cancer. As sad as that was, I took comfort and pride knowing he had led a full and happy life to the best of his abilities. For the majority of my life, I couldnt go anywhere without suddenly making a new friend the moment they found out I was my fathers son. He influenced the lives of thousands of people in a positive, constructive and mature way...just like Paul. At least we got to know Paul though UA-cam, and even after he has left us, he will live on through this platform. “Remember, no man is a failure who has friends.”
I lost my therapist to cancer. He was an adventurer, horse-wrangler, and general badass. Paul reminds a lot of him. He deserves the one million subs, and God willing, to make it through this.
Woke up to see Paul has 1 Million!!!! Lost my Dad too in July. Know what you're feeling and know how good it feels to do something good for someone else 'going through it'.
I have been subscribed to Paul Harrell for the past 6 years. His "shatneresque...pauses" never bothered, nor did I notice them much. He quickly became my favorite youtube channel for his wry witty humor and his in depth videos on very specific topics that no other firearms channels cover in such detail. I've learned a lot from his wisdom. I am glad hus brother will be continuing the channel and I pray for Paul, his wife, and his family.
I lost my "father" to cancer last year. He was actually my grandfather. But he was the first and true father figure I've ever had. I couldn't visit him while he was on hospice. Last time I saw him I knew it was a done deal. It's the first time he called me son. The last words I ever heard him say was "I love you my son." When I heard the pain I could relate. I understand why you cut out the vulnerable parts as we aren't supposed to show weakness but every man who knows the pain of loosing the man that molded them know exactly what you feel. It's that pain that in a way keeps them alive and shows how much meaning they had in this world. I hope one day I could be atleast half the man he was.
Admin you really got me talking about your dad. My dad is also a pastor and has several recorded sermons floating around on the internet. Knowing that I’ll have them to watch one day when he goes home with the Lord gets me choked up. All love and prayers to Paul, I’ve been a subscriber for quite some time.
My father passed away suddenly in December 2020 and I wish I had a voicemail or something to hear his voice again. I'm sure it's comforting to have a digital record of your loved ones to go back and see. Let's get Paul to 1 million subs, he's rather deserving of it. He's an old school UA-cam legend that's passed on lots of information to the younger generations.
@@DaveTex2375 It's amazing what those messages mean now, I still have our texts on my phone as well. I was lucky enough my Dad and I shared a meaningful exchange a few days before he passed and that means the world to me now.
Like everyone else who's been a long time fan, I will sorely miss the man. He's like a good friend you never met in person. I learned so much from Paul's work and wealth of knowledge and subject matter expertise. Thanks for everything you did for the 2A community. God's speed Sir!
I subscribed to Paul Harrell's channel for James Henry Thomas, my dad, who lost his battle to leukemia just over 14 years ago. I wish daily that we had the foresight to record his wealth of knowledge, his wisdom, his humor and his stories to hand down to my kids and theirs to follow. He was a soldier, a structural designer and a guard in his professional life. More importantly, in his personal life, he was a child of God, a husband, a father and a friend. I miss him more than words can express but cherish every moment he gifted me to make me the man I am today for my wife and kids. His voice is always in my head guiding me to be a better husband and father. God bless you, Paul Harrel and thank you Admin for pointing us to this man. Paul, I will lift you up in prayer for peace and, if not healing, strength and freedom from pain and time for you to spend with those dear to you.
Paul Harrell's UA-cam channel now has 1 million subscribers... thank you for starting this crusade for such a wonderful cause... you have now earned my subscription to your fine channel.
My old man's still here rocking with my buddies and I. but seeing another grown man tear up about missing his father, reminds me to cherish every moment I still have with my dad. Rip to your old man and Hope the best for Paul and his channel, may he live on forever in the Internet
Just learned the news of Paul's passing now. Came back here because I knew of his situation before this, but this video impacted me greatly. Admin, thanks for this video again, and folks reading this, go and hug your loved ones a bit more extra, and go and make those phone calls, you never know when your last chance will be. Rest in Power, Paul
Can’t like this enough man, I been watching Paul for many years and have learned a lot from his videos. Definitely a down to earth and stand up guy. Prayers to him and his family.
Losing a father is never easy, having lost mine over 20 years ago, you recollection still brought a tear to my eye. Sorryfor your loss a d thank you for giving a shout out to a true legend and honorable individual.
That had to feel tough sharing that. Cancer took my dad too when i was twenty-three, right after I EAS'd from the Marine Corp. Had to learn how to be an adult on the outside without his wisdom. But the best thing I could do going forward was remembering what he did teach me and pass on the great childhood he gave me to my own children. Stay strong, brothers.
Just lost my mother to cancer the day after thanksgiving. This hits real close to home for me and I hope this legend is alive whenever he hits 1m. He deserves it
Honestly never thought I'd ever cry watching Administrative Results. I could see the pain in your eyes, then when you tried to speak on losing your father.. I really felt that in my heart, I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer and just trying speak the words out loud about it is difficult the words get stuck in my throat and the back of my throat hurts, If I keep speaking I start doing that weird thing where you can't breath and your words become gibberish. My heart goes out to you guys❤ Thank you for both for all the videos
My dad is also my preacher...my greatest comfort is when he passes, I will have countless sermons of his to listen. His style of preaching is just like if we were sitting in the car together having a good talk...father to son. I know I'll be able to get that when he is gone.
Man, I feel you on getting choked up talking about your dad. I have a hell of a time holding back tears talking about losing my dad. Its been 7 years. Its a cut that scared DEEP. I only have voicemails left to hear my dads voice
I've been a subscriber to Paul for a long time now, wish I could subscribe multiple times. The man is a legend. Seeing your emotions come out when talking about your dad is refreshing. So many guys feel like they have to be stoics that can't be vulnerable. I pray that Paul knows Jesus, as I'd like to one day get to meet him in heaven.
Yes!!! We did it! He has 1.01 million now because of everyone helping out. Paul is awesome and I’m so sad to hear that he is going through this. I’ve been subscribed to him for years and I was wishing I could subscribe multiple times to help him out!
Jesus man I felt those tears too man. Lost my dad to cancer as well and hearing his voice and seeing videos of him helps me remember him. The fact you have videos of your dad preaching to remember him.....is just touching man, really powerful. I'm not crying you're crying leave me alone.
I lost my dad ten years ago. The day I found him not breathing early in the morning was by far the worst day of my life. Unfortunately as the years pass it does not get any easier with his loss. My dad was my role model, he was my best friend and I still miss him every day. am fortunate for all the good times we had together. I hope that Paul and his family have time to reflect with Paul and make the painful but important arrangements that need to be done. I hope and pray Paul can overcome his illness. Paul is by far one of the best and most professional content creators on youtube. God bless Paul and the Harold family.
Been subbed too him a long time I am a stage 3 lymphoma cancer survivor my self so I know the hell he is going through. My heart and prayers go out to him and his family
I've been a long time subscriber of his, and I just checked...thanks to efforts like this, he's over 1.04 million now. I hope he gets well and knows we all love him and thank him for his service and his educational videos.
Lost mom in 2022. It's...extraordinarily difficult. I did not know your father, but by your reaction when speak of him I can tell he was a great man who raised you to be what you are today. I am sure without a doubt, your dad loved you VERY much. My sincere condolences. P.S. Been following Harrell since 2018. He's a gem of a human being.
My father died at 59 on April 7 2022 from stage 4 pancreas cancer. 1 year after his diagnosis. Been a subscriber of Pauls for years. Always thought he was great.
My dad wasnt and isnt a gun guy. He never taught me about firearms. Paul filled that gap for me. I owe much of what i know today to this great man. Godspeed, Paul.
As a new dad myself I have been reminiscing on my own father in a different way than I have in the past. He died when I was 14 and I have gone through various ebbs and flows of grief as my life has changed over the last 16 years. I believe that losing a parent is a lot like losing a limb, nothing is ever really the same, you have to relearn how you will operate in the world, and there are those phantom itches where you think “I should call him to ask about that”. This is a reminder to all of you out there, love and honor those close to you, and shower them with appreciation while they are here. God bless
I wish I could subscribe to him multiple times. He’s been a great inspiration to me in the firearm perspective and the creative side. Also damnit Admin, hearing you mention your dad got me misty eyed. You’re a great guy, thank you for being here for us and for Paul.
This is very sad news to hear. I lost my father coming up on a year now to pancreatic cancer. It has been the hardest thing I have ever gone through and I can't even explain how much I wish nobody else on the planet could go through that. He was diagnosed and gone within just one month. Spend as much time with the people that matter to you the most. Be sure to tell them how much they mean to you. Life is just too short.
Paul is an Amazing presenter and its so heartbreaking to see such a great man going through such a tough time. Best wishes to you Paul! also thank you Admin for doing this.
My grandfather died of cancer last week, cancer is a absolutely horrible thing and is one of if not the most brutal reminder of our frailty as humans. However it is also a great reminder of and driver to The Cross. Aaron, your father, my grandfather and all others who call upon Christs name and cling to what was accomplished on the cross will never truly taste death even when we physically die. For this earth is not our home, we are just pilgrims in it! None of us know Paul’s heart except for the Lord, but hopefully he is a fellow believer and brother in Christ! If that is the case then Paul will actually achieve victory in the end and will be exactly where he was created to be! This truth is extremely helpful to me although I miss my grandpa as I type this. I will truly miss seeing new videos from Paul, he is a great guy and an amazing educator. I hope we can get him to that 1 million subs! Praise the Lord and screw cancer
he deserves it, just made sure i was subbed too. hopefully we can make this goal. Cancer sucks ass, ive had it, my dad had it, my brother had it, we all need to fight and support each other as best we can. to everyone reading, have a good day, god bless
I’m gonna miss him so much. Seriously. I’ve been watching Paul’s videos for years. I’ve been praying for him and will continue to do so. I will forever and always go back to his Thanksgiving videos. Some of my favorites. 🇺🇸
I've never met Paul but if you spend any time at all watching his videos you can see that he's a good man. He deserves to live a long and happy life with his family and while the situation looks pretty tough right now, I'm praying for him. I'm not religious, but if that small act of prayer does anything at all to help him, I'm more than happy to do it and do it regularly.
My grandfather died of pancreatic cancer 20 years ago. Diagnosed November, dead by February. Spoke seven languages, legit sparred with Chuck Norris, was a pastor and a man gifted by God with healing hands. He was my hero. Also, Admin, if you don't mind sharing, it would be cool to see your father's sermons, even if he didn't start out his UA-cam run with a balaclava. =P Much love.
Thanks for making this video man, most people will share on instagram or twitter and leave it at that. Paul is a man’s man, a teacher, a mentor, and just a solid dude I’d trust with my life.
Paul Harrell is one of the most important guntubers on the internet I’ve learned so much from Paul over the years, my heart goes out to him and his family.
He has definitely an inspiration to me, I’ve spent countless hours listening to his anecdotes and stories. A man that stands out in a community of men.
Paul was the first firearm channel I saw, and immediately subscribed. His demeanor is great and he is a great storyteller, Paul could read directions on the back of a tv dinner, and I would listen intently, hanging on to every word. storytelling seems to be a fading art form. I love how he will just pull firearms and ammo from his pocket with the ease of my grandfather pulling a Werther's original. I hope to hear many more stories from Paul.
You hit me hard with the thing about losing your dad. My dad's been going through some tough stuff lately and I know one day I'm going to lose him. He made music years ago and I'll at least have that but I'm not looking forward to it. God bless man, and God bless Paul Harrell!
My dad died from pancreatic cancer a few years ago. Has to be one of the worst ways to watch someone go. Because of that, I can truly empathize with Paul and his family. That being said I love you all. Please take care of yourselves as time is our most valuable resource. Get to know Jesus so that when it is your time, you can be at peace knowing everything will be OK.
I stumbled across Paul’s work through another channel and love his content. Will be wishing him well and keeping him in my prayers. [Edit: I commented on this before listening to the end of this. @Admin - You’re a good dude. You taking the time to call out for Paul reflects well on your own character and would make your dad proud.]
God bless you for doing this Admin. Not many ppl watch Paul because he's too "technical" for them. But Paul is one of the greatest guntubers to ever exist. I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer. It came in and took her very quickly. Thank you for using your voice to bring more attention of the younger generations to Paul. He's a good man and really deserves to be recognized. Again Admin... thank you.
I'm sorry for your loss. My hope and dream for my daughter is to be fondly remembered by her when I'm gone. Admin, I've watched your stuff for a long time, but never subbed. This was moving. Subbed to Paul Harrell and now you as well.
Thank you for sharing your story Admin! Been a huge Harrell fan myself. Was blessed to meet him when he attended a gun show for a meet and greet last year.
Hey everyone:
I did OT ask him to do this. Self promotion isn't my bag.
However...
Thanks for doing this, That's really cool and I appreciate the effort. Seriously, Thank you.
My Brother, Roy, will be taking over the channel and will spend many hours boring you with his own anecdotes and life experiences.

You’re a good man, and I am sure he is proud of you as he resides in Heaven with our Lord. I’ll do what I can to get others to subscribe to Paul. Thank you again.

I lost my best friend since 7th grade a few months back. It was probably the worst day of my life when I found out. It's difficult now but it's going to get way harder in the coming weeks and months. Stay strong my friend, eventually you get over the hill and things start to get better. You're never gonna stop missing them though and they'll always be a part of you.
@@Tommymad1 Thanks man, and my condolences to you as well. They will never leave us. Until we meet again.
@@ratgobblerThank you. Sympathy and prayer from anyone is always felt and appreciated. Whether they be a friend, or a stranger. Keep doing the good you are doing.
Sorry to hear that for you
Lost my father to pancreatic cancer. Let's get him to a million, boys.
For Paul!
We did it brothers. We got Paul to 1 million. God I love this community. Thanks Admin for spearheading this crusade.
Paul's firearm commentary and focus on safety is always something that I appreciated, he's skilled and realistic.
His videos are unlike any other. Like an old friend explaining firearm mechanics
Amen
And he doesn't have a beard or anything!
@@markh.6687 No beard, no sunglasses, no ball cap, no tatts. There's tons of GunTubers who have all those attributes and it's a major detriment. The first 3 conceal portions of the face and impede expression (beard occludes the mouth, sunglasses cover the eyes and ball cap covers the eyebrows and forehead wrinkles). Yes. it IS important to see the entirety of a speaker's facial expressions and Paul knows this.
When you talked about watching videos of your dad, it made me think of Paul's Thanksgiving Special videos. He puts in so much effort every year to be like a father to people who need it.
This right here
Ouch, my heart
Underrated comment
I'm 53 and Paul's Holiday specials was the family I didn't have around at those times.
I'm not crying you you're crying
unrelated ask, give me some napkins pls
I've been subscribed for so many years to Paul's channel. I don't know what I'm going to do on Thanksgiving and Christmas without Paul's specials.
I’ve never heard of Paul Harrell until a few days ago and honestly, I wasn’t planning on looking him up.
On a whim I decided to watch this while I sit with my wife as she goes through her last round of chemo. (Breast cancer) and Admin, you really hit home. I lost my dad 2 years ago to lung cancer. It’s still hard. Cancer sucks. I’m heading over to Paul’s channel to sub. It’s such a little thing but it’s the little things that are huge. ✊
He's got some of the best firearms demonstrations and content on UA-cam.
I envy you getting to watch them all for the first time.
I lost my father two years ago as well to cancer. May God be on your wife’s side, and yours as well.
@@Lothar_VonDoomhammer🙏
Paul's dry humor and compelling storytelling ability is unmatched. A truly great man.
Pancreatic cancer it's one of the worst. It killed my mom and her brother.
Paul Harrell has been speaking indisputable truths about firearms on UA-cam for over a decade. Lets get him that plaque boys, he's earned it tenfold.
In fact, not just about firearms.
Wow, I'm so sorry to hear about Paul. I'm a Critical Care RN and care for these Case's more than I want to. I was my own Fathers Nurse the last week of his life as he struggled with Lung Cancer so I know what he will go thru. My heart goes out to Paul! Thank you Paul for all your service to all of us nonprofessionals.
Talking about losing your dad and getting misty and broken up got me right in the feels. Shit's hard. Been following Paul for years. But between him and James Yeager, losing multiple people I've looked up to at that level over the past few years just in the guntube space has been rough for sure. But Paul is the real deal and deserves our support. Especially since that support is literally just a click of a button.
I've felt for a long time that Paul hasn't got the recognition that he should. His is one of the best firearm focused channels on the platform. Thanks for sharing your support. Most importantly thank you, Paul.
Same here, he was the first and for awhile only gun tuber I followed for awhile.
So, here's the deal. I've been subscribed to Paul for a long time. He's a brother in arms and I like the way he doesn't get into the drama. He's a true expert. Your support of him has earned YOU my sub.
Man, I don’t research anything gun related without going to Paul first. I happened upon his channel years ago when I was buying my first handgun. What a knowledgeable human being, and I absolutely enjoy his dry, to the point delivery.
I don’t think any of us are ready to lose him, but I agree 100% that he will live on through the hundreds of videos he’s made for us. He will also live on through channels like yours and what you’ve gained from him. Thank you for sharing him with your followers who may not have known him otherwise.
His personality is what made me start watching and keep at it. I consider him the funniest, and most knowledgeable person here.
i'm in the same boat. he's my cool firearms grandpa
Paul Harrell is and always will be one of my favorite gun tubers. He has taught me so much about firearms and will always be a beacon of knowledge. I pray for Paul Harrell and his family to find peace.
Paul and his channel are the testiment to the notion that its not the gucci gear that makes you dangerous and effective. its the training and experience that takes the precedent. Dude's a legend
@@Gapis321 couldn’t have said it any better.
Been a fan and follower of Paul Harrell for a long time. I am a cancer survivor and I lost my father to pancreatic cancer. As sad as that was, I took comfort and pride knowing he had led a full and happy life to the best of his abilities. For the majority of my life, I couldnt go anywhere without suddenly making a new friend the moment they found out I was my fathers son. He influenced the lives of thousands of people in a positive, constructive and mature way...just like Paul.
At least we got to know Paul though UA-cam, and even after he has left us, he will live on through this platform.
“Remember, no man is a failure who has friends.”
I lost my therapist to cancer. He was an adventurer, horse-wrangler, and general badass. Paul reminds a lot of him. He deserves the one million subs, and God willing, to make it through this.
Hell yea dude, big respect for you actually making a video rather than just an insta post.
Woke up to see Paul has 1 Million!!!! Lost my Dad too in July. Know what you're feeling and know how good it feels to do something good for someone else 'going through it'.
I have been subscribed to Paul Harrell for the past 6 years. His "shatneresque...pauses" never bothered, nor did I notice them much. He quickly became my favorite youtube channel for his wry witty humor and his in depth videos on very specific topics that no other firearms channels cover in such detail. I've learned a lot from his wisdom. I am glad hus brother will be continuing the channel and I pray for Paul, his wife, and his family.
I lost my "father" to cancer last year. He was actually my grandfather. But he was the first and true father figure I've ever had. I couldn't visit him while he was on hospice. Last time I saw him I knew it was a done deal. It's the first time he called me son. The last words I ever heard him say was "I love you my son." When I heard the pain I could relate. I understand why you cut out the vulnerable parts as we aren't supposed to show weakness but every man who knows the pain of loosing the man that molded them know exactly what you feel. It's that pain that in a way keeps them alive and shows how much meaning they had in this world. I hope one day I could be atleast half the man he was.
my father survived pancreatic cancer, he was diagnosed in 2016, and he’s still kicking, even back to work. it can be done.
Admin you really got me talking about your dad. My dad is also a pastor and has several recorded sermons floating around on the internet. Knowing that I’ll have them to watch one day when he goes home with the Lord gets me choked up. All love and prayers to Paul, I’ve been a subscriber for quite some time.
Could you link to the sermons maybe? I'm always interested in hearing new people talk about the Lord
My father passed away suddenly in December 2020 and I wish I had a voicemail or something to hear his voice again. I'm sure it's comforting to have a digital record of your loved ones to go back and see.
Let's get Paul to 1 million subs, he's rather deserving of it. He's an old school UA-cam legend that's passed on lots of information to the younger generations.
I understand your feelings of loss. I can't bring myself to delete my father's old text messages from my phone.
@@DaveTex2375 It's amazing what those messages mean now, I still have our texts on my phone as well. I was lucky enough my Dad and I shared a meaningful exchange a few days before he passed and that means the world to me now.
I’ve been following PAUL for quite some time. He’s one of the best. If not the best. He will be in my prayers.
Paul is the GOAT, he was a legendary National Guardsman in my home state Oregon, an incredible marksman and an incredible man.
My brother and I lost our mom to intestinal cancer 3 years ago as well, so I got emotional just writing that. Prayers for Paul's family.
Like everyone else who's been a long time fan, I will sorely miss the man. He's like a good friend you never met in person. I learned so much from Paul's work and wealth of knowledge and subject matter expertise. Thanks for everything you did for the 2A community. God's speed Sir!
I subscribed to Paul Harrell's channel for James Henry Thomas, my dad, who lost his battle to leukemia just over 14 years ago. I wish daily that we had the foresight to record his wealth of knowledge, his wisdom, his humor and his stories to hand down to my kids and theirs to follow. He was a soldier, a structural designer and a guard in his professional life. More importantly, in his personal life, he was a child of God, a husband, a father and a friend. I miss him more than words can express but cherish every moment he gifted me to make me the man I am today for my wife and kids. His voice is always in my head guiding me to be a better husband and father. God bless you, Paul Harrel and thank you Admin for pointing us to this man. Paul, I will lift you up in prayer for peace and, if not healing, strength and freedom from pain and time for you to spend with those dear to you.
My your dad rest in peace
Avé , True to Admin.
Scrolling shorts almost makes you wish for adpocalypse
Paul Harrell's UA-cam channel now has 1 million subscribers... thank you for starting this crusade for such a wonderful cause... you have now earned my subscription to your fine channel.
My old man's still here rocking with my buddies and I. but seeing another grown man tear up about missing his father, reminds me to cherish every moment I still have with my dad. Rip to your old man and Hope the best for Paul and his channel, may he live on forever in the Internet
Never in a million years would call my dad 'my old man.'
I lost my father in 2013. Needless to say I teared up and tried to hold them back with you. I wasn’t subbed to Paul Harrell but I am now. 🙏🏼
Just learned the news of Paul's passing now. Came back here because I knew of his situation before this, but this video impacted me greatly. Admin, thanks for this video again, and folks reading this, go and hug your loved ones a bit more extra, and go and make those phone calls, you never know when your last chance will be. Rest in Power, Paul
Can’t like this enough man, I been watching Paul for many years and have learned a lot from his videos. Definitely a down to earth and stand up guy. Prayers to him and his family.
Losing a father is never easy, having lost mine over 20 years ago, you recollection still brought a tear to my eye. Sorryfor your loss a d thank you for giving a shout out to a true legend and honorable individual.
nothing makes me happier than seeing the youtube community come together and reach a goal for a man who deserves it.
That had to feel tough sharing that. Cancer took my dad too when i was twenty-three, right after I EAS'd from the Marine Corp. Had to learn how to be an adult on the outside without his wisdom. But the best thing I could do going forward was remembering what he did teach me and pass on the great childhood he gave me to my own children.
Stay strong, brothers.
Just lost my mother to cancer the day after thanksgiving. This hits real close to home for me and I hope this legend is alive whenever he hits 1m. He deserves it
I'm there. New subscriber to Paul. We gotta take care of this legend.
Honestly never thought I'd ever cry watching Administrative Results. I could see the pain in your eyes, then when you tried to speak on losing your father.. I really felt that in my heart, I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer and just trying speak the words out loud about it is difficult the words get stuck in my throat and the back of my throat hurts, If I keep speaking I start doing that weird thing where you can't breath and your words become gibberish. My heart goes out to you guys❤ Thank you for both for all the videos
I am battling pancreatic cancer. It is tough but we have no choice.! Good luck Paul !!
I hope my kids listen to my sermons when I pass. Super cool that you have your dad's messages to be encouraged by. Great video - Pastor Andrew
My dad is also my preacher...my greatest comfort is when he passes, I will have countless sermons of his to listen. His style of preaching is just like if we were sitting in the car together having a good talk...father to son.
I know I'll be able to get that when he is gone.
Watching Paul in my 40’s is like having a scout master again. He reminds me of all the men that positively influenced me growing up years ago.
Man, I feel you on getting choked up talking about your dad. I have a hell of a time holding back tears talking about losing my dad. Its been 7 years. Its a cut that scared DEEP. I only have voicemails left to hear my dads voice
I've been a subscriber to Paul for a long time now, wish I could subscribe multiple times. The man is a legend. Seeing your emotions come out when talking about your dad is refreshing. So many guys feel like they have to be stoics that can't be vulnerable. I pray that Paul knows Jesus, as I'd like to one day get to meet him in heaven.
I had the honor of meeting Paul at a gun show in Oregon. Such an amazing man. May God continue to bless him and his family for many years.
Yes!!! We did it! He has 1.01 million now because of everyone helping out. Paul is awesome and I’m so sad to hear that he is going through this. I’ve been subscribed to him for years and I was wishing I could subscribe multiple times to help him out!
And I love you too Admin! Sorry about your father! I’m sure he was a great man since he raised you the way he did!
Jesus man I felt those tears too man. Lost my dad to cancer as well and hearing his voice and seeing videos of him helps me remember him. The fact you have videos of your dad preaching to remember him.....is just touching man, really powerful. I'm not crying you're crying leave me alone.
Hero’s are remembered, but legends never die… you will be missed Paul
Been subscribed to Paul for a long time, Im ex Military from the UK, he is a World-wide Gem.
I lost my dad ten years ago. The day I found him not breathing early in the morning was by far the worst day of my life. Unfortunately as the years pass it does not get any easier with his loss. My dad was my role model, he was my best friend and I still miss him every day. am fortunate for all the good times we had together. I hope that Paul and his family have time to reflect with Paul and make the painful but important arrangements that need to be done. I hope and pray Paul can overcome his illness. Paul is by far one of the best and most professional content creators on youtube. God bless Paul and the Harold family.
Paul Harrell is a real gem. And this video is the essence of class.
I have been with Paul since around 10k subs. The man is a living legend.
Same here
Thank you admin! Greetings from Czech Republic my fellow Americans! Stay strong brothers! 👍
Been subbed too him a long time I am a stage 3 lymphoma cancer survivor my self so I know the hell he is going through. My heart and prayers go out to him and his family
Good luck bud
I've been a long time subscriber of his, and I just checked...thanks to efforts like this, he's over 1.04 million now. I hope he gets well and knows we all love him and thank him for his service and his educational videos.
Lost mom in 2022. It's...extraordinarily difficult.
I did not know your father, but by your reaction when speak of him I can tell he was a great man who raised you to be what you are today.
I am sure without a doubt, your dad loved you VERY much. My sincere condolences.
P.S. Been following Harrell since 2018. He's a gem of a human being.
We are all gonna miss Paul
My father died at 59 on April 7 2022 from stage 4 pancreas cancer. 1 year after his diagnosis. Been a subscriber of Pauls for years. Always thought he was great.
My dad wasnt and isnt a gun guy. He never taught me about firearms. Paul filled that gap for me. I owe much of what i know today to this great man. Godspeed, Paul.
Paul's videos finally got me carrying daily and practicing my draw/accuracy! He's a great content creator and I'll always be thankful for his work.
As a new dad myself I have been reminiscing on my own father in a different way than I have in the past. He died when I was 14 and I have gone through various ebbs and flows of grief as my life has changed over the last 16 years. I believe that losing a parent is a lot like losing a limb, nothing is ever really the same, you have to relearn how you will operate in the world, and there are those phantom itches where you think “I should call him to ask about that”. This is a reminder to all of you out there, love and honor those close to you, and shower them with appreciation while they are here. God bless
I wish I could subscribe to him multiple times. He’s been a great inspiration to me in the firearm perspective and the creative side. Also damnit Admin, hearing you mention your dad got me misty eyed. You’re a great guy, thank you for being here for us and for Paul.
This is very sad news to hear. I lost my father coming up on a year now to pancreatic cancer. It has been the hardest thing I have ever gone through and I can't even explain how much I wish nobody else on the planet could go through that. He was diagnosed and gone within just one month. Spend as much time with the people that matter to you the most. Be sure to tell them how much they mean to you. Life is just too short.
Paul is an Amazing presenter and its so heartbreaking to see such a great man going through such a tough time. Best wishes to you Paul! also thank you Admin for doing this.
My grandfather died of cancer last week, cancer is a absolutely horrible thing and is one of if not the most brutal reminder of our frailty as humans. However it is also a great reminder of and driver to The Cross.
Aaron, your father, my grandfather and all others who call upon Christs name and cling to what was accomplished on the cross will never truly taste death even when we physically die. For this earth is not our home, we are just pilgrims in it!
None of us know Paul’s heart except for the Lord, but hopefully he is a fellow believer and brother in Christ! If that is the case then Paul will actually achieve victory in the end and will be exactly where he was created to be! This truth is extremely helpful to me although I miss my grandpa as I type this.
I will truly miss seeing new videos from Paul, he is a great guy and an amazing educator. I hope we can get him to that 1 million subs! Praise the Lord and screw cancer
he made over 2 million just the other day, the man deserves so much more but this is still something great.
I feel you on losing your dad, this month it will be 16 years since my dad passed, im glad we got paul to a million!
he deserves it, just made sure i was subbed too. hopefully we can make this goal.
Cancer sucks ass, ive had it, my dad had it, my brother had it, we all need to fight and support each other as best we can.
to everyone reading, have a good day, god bless
I’m gonna miss him so much. Seriously. I’ve been watching Paul’s videos for years. I’ve been praying for him and will continue to do so. I will forever and always go back to his Thanksgiving videos. Some of my favorites. 🇺🇸
He's the GOAT. He reminds me of my range instructor from basic too. The world is better because he is here!
I've never met Paul but if you spend any time at all watching his videos you can see that he's a good man. He deserves to live a long and happy life with his family and while the situation looks pretty tough right now, I'm praying for him. I'm not religious, but if that small act of prayer does anything at all to help him, I'm more than happy to do it and do it regularly.
I’ve been subscribed to Paul for years now and it breaks my heart to hear this. I will be praying for him and his family. You are a great man Admin!
Prayers for Paul and you and all who are facing this deadly disease.
My grandfather died of pancreatic cancer 20 years ago. Diagnosed November, dead by February. Spoke seven languages, legit sparred with Chuck Norris, was a pastor and a man gifted by God with healing hands. He was my hero.
Also, Admin, if you don't mind sharing, it would be cool to see your father's sermons, even if he didn't start out his UA-cam run with a balaclava. =P
Much love.
Thanks for making this video man, most people will share on instagram or twitter and leave it at that. Paul is a man’s man, a teacher, a mentor, and just a solid dude I’d trust with my life.
I’ve been subscribed for years now.
Godspeed Paul.
Paul Harrell is one of the most important guntubers on the internet I’ve learned so much from Paul over the years, my heart goes out to him and his family.
He has definitely an inspiration to me, I’ve spent countless hours listening to his anecdotes and stories. A man that stands out in a community of men.
Paul was the first firearm channel I saw, and immediately subscribed. His demeanor is great and he is a great storyteller, Paul could read directions on the back of a tv dinner, and I would listen intently, hanging on to every word. storytelling seems to be a fading art form. I love how he will just pull firearms and ammo from his pocket with the ease of my grandfather pulling a Werther's original.
I hope to hear many more stories from Paul.
You hit me hard with the thing about losing your dad. My dad's been going through some tough stuff lately and I know one day I'm going to lose him. He made music years ago and I'll at least have that but I'm not looking forward to it. God bless man, and God bless Paul Harrell!
My dad died from pancreatic cancer a few years ago. Has to be one of the worst ways to watch someone go. Because of that, I can truly empathize with Paul and his family. That being said I love you all. Please take care of yourselves as time is our most valuable resource. Get to know Jesus so that when it is your time, you can be at peace knowing everything will be OK.
I stumbled across Paul’s work through another channel and love his content. Will be wishing him well and keeping him in my prayers.
[Edit: I commented on this before listening to the end of this. @Admin - You’re a good dude. You taking the time to call out for Paul reflects well on your own character and would make your dad proud.]
God bless you for doing this Admin. Not many ppl watch Paul because he's too "technical" for them. But Paul is one of the greatest guntubers to ever exist.
I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer. It came in and took her very quickly.
Thank you for using your voice to bring more attention of the younger generations to Paul. He's a good man and really deserves to be recognized. Again Admin... thank you.
I'm sorry for your loss. My hope and dream for my daughter is to be fondly remembered by her when I'm gone. Admin, I've watched your stuff for a long time, but never subbed. This was moving. Subbed to Paul Harrell and now you as well.
Thank you for sharing your story Admin!
Been a huge Harrell fan myself.
Was blessed to meet him when he attended a gun show for a meet and greet last year.
