Angry Grandpa Has Cancer.

I know it's kind of a morbid thought, but I was just thinking less than a week ago while watching a video of theirs, "The odds are against this man still being alive in 5-10 years".

I don't mean that in a negative way. Love the channel, love the guy. I've been subbed to them since I think 2013 or so.

Let's just be honest though. He's 66 but looks 76. He's a chain smoker. He's overweight and doesn't eat healthy. On average those aren't the kind of people who make it to 80.

So just kind of a coincidence that that thought popped into my head less than a week ago and now this has been announced.

At the start of the video I did expect it to be lung cancer, but I guess...kinda thankfully it's not.

I know skin cancer kills a large number of people per year, but I'd still say it's better than lung cancer.

It's just unfortunate he let it go so long and it has spread.

I do have an uncle in his 70's though that has been fighting melanoma that spread though his body and even to his brain for a good 8 years now. It hasn't been easy for him of course, it's a constant battle. But he has good periods and bad periods. He doesn't have a great prognosis but he's still not considered terminal.

He's a millionaire though, so he can afford the best treatment.

That should definitely work in AGP's favor. I'm sure by now him and Michael must have a combined net worth that's at least in the low millions.
