IN MEMORIAM: Philip Coppens Of ‘Ancient Aliens’ Passes Away 

And to think all of the knowledge his death took from us that he didn't have published, what a shame! Condolences to his family and loved ones.

He had a rare form of cancer, they killed him!

Steve Jobs and many other bright people have died from "rare form of cancer" too young.

Coincidence? I think not!

did you know that steve jobs' cancer was found early and he could have very easily been cured?

however:

"In October 2003, Jobs was diagnosed with cancer, and in mid-2004, he announced to his employees that he had a cancerous tumor in his pancreas. The prognosis for pancreatic cancer is usually very poor; Jobs stated that he had a rare, far less aggressive type known as islet cell neuroendocrine tumor. Despite his diagnosis, Jobs resisted his doctors' recommendations for mainstream medical intervention for nine months, instead consuming a special alternative medicine diet in an attempt to thwart the disease.

According to Harvard researcher Ramzi Amri, his choice of alternative treatment "led to an unnecessarily early death."

According to Jobs's biographer, Walter Isaacson, "for nine months he refused to undergo surgery for his pancreatic cancer – a decision he later regretted as his health declined." "Instead, he tried a vegan diet, acupuncture, herbal remedies and other treatments he found online, and even consulted a psychic. He also was influenced by a doctor who ran a clinic that advised juice fasts, bowel cleansings and other unproven approaches, before finally having surgery in July 2004."

He eventually underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy (or "Whipple procedure") in July 2004, that appeared to successfully remove the tumor. Jobs apparently did not receive chemotherapy or radiation therapy. During Jobs's absence, Tim Cook, head of worldwide sales and operations at Apple, ran the company.

i would say being a lefty loon contributed to his death.

nothing suspicious and nothing to see here. just like senator wellstone.

i'm glad the show got made. brought him some fame in his final days. judging by his facebook page, he seemed quite proud of it.


RIP good fellow; on to the next realm

jobs should of had the surgery AND done all the "lefty loon" stuff to sway his health



right-brain + left-brain = BALANCE

Very sad. I have enjoyed listening to Coppens for a number of years. I could listen to him speak all day long.

I don't buy the alien side of it but respect coppens for the passion he put into his work and watching someone like that wither away at a young age is heart breaking.

What? He looked very young! God bless his soul, and his family and friends' precious hearts.

there was a final pic he tweeted where he looked like he was walking dead from his hospital bed, again heartbreaking.

Season 1 episode 30! Great interview.

Haven't seen the NASA ["Nazi"] one yet. Heard that was great!

41? Dag!

Lots of people beat cancer via alternative approaches. Just because Steve didn't means nothing.

from a post Giorgio Tsoukalos made on his Facebook page yesterday

"
Dear Everyone - - My dear friend, colleague and brother Philip Coppens is currently recovering from an 8hr surgery at UCLA MEdical in Westwood to combat his unwelcome angiosarcoma intruder. I need ALL of you to CONTINUE sending him your best thoughts and vibes. Let's DEMONSTRATE TO THE WORLD that THOUGHT CAN and WILL alter the course of someone's fate..."
