‘Deadliest Catch’ Season 20 Follows Wild Bill Wichrowski’s Cancer Battle
When the Deadliest Catch Season 19 ended, Captain Wild Bill Wichrowski found out he had cancer. Now, in Season 20, the brave captain is going to show everyone that cancer is not stopping him from living or crab fishing. What should fans of the Discovery series expect?
Cancer Is Not Stopping Deadliest Catch Captain Wild Bill Wichrowski In Season 20
Crab fishing is the most deadliest job in the world. What about a Captain of a crab ship who has cancer? Does fishing while dealing with cancer make this situation more dangerous? In one of the Discovery previews for Deadliest Catch Season 20, Wild Bill finds out he has cancer. From the moment he got the diagnosis, he was determined to not let cancer stop him from living.
Firstly, he decided to make his diagnosis public. “If I can help save one or two people on this planet, that’s a good thing.” Although his battle happened during Season 19, fans will get to see it happen during Season 20. Next, Wild Bill made a decision to inspire
When I heard it, one of the things I thought was, ‘You know what? I’m not going to stop [fishing]. I’m going to keep going until I actually can’t.’ How many people get diagnose with this and they just shut down and crawl into a shell. And it just makes it worse.
Therefore, Wild Bill will be on the F/V Summer Bay this season, hauling crab, yelling at Greenhorns, and inspiring people to just keep going.

Wild Bill Finds Sharing HIs Health Info ‘Kind Of Weird’
At the end of the Deadliest Catch Season 19, the Discovery cameras showed Captain Bill Wichrowski getting the news that he had prostate cancer. He got oodles of messages from people all over the world wishing him a speedy recovery. However, sharing this information with the world was a bit strange for him. But, he feels this is important to share.
I’ll be honest. It’s kind of weird to put [the diagnosis] out there to the public. I’ll explain to people what happens as it goes…I’m willing to put it out there to let people see the journey in hopes of convincing some people to get tested.
