Fred 'Dakota' Hurt, the rugged white-water gold miner who appeared in Discovery's docuseries 'Gold Rush: White Water,' has died after a short battle with brain cancer.

Larry Myers Jr., who starred on TLC’s ‘My 600-Lb. Life’ and became known as Mr. Buttermilk Biscuits, died last week at 49.

The “White Water” series, which premiered in 2018 and is among several in the network’s gold-mining franchise, is set high in Alaska’s remote Chilkat Mountains and follows white-water gold seekers, divers and mountaineers in their pursuit of millions in gold. In Season 6, Dustin had the opportunity to buy his father’s mining equipment and run two crews simultaneously for the first time.

During his run as a reality star, Dakota Fred came under fire amid allegations that he stole a claim in. The Thrill of the Hunt Entertainment co-owner said he was “portrayed as the most despicable character ever” after appearing to kick miners off the claim in an infamous scene of the show. Mining firms want to scrape the seabed for minerals used in electric car batteries. Scientists worry about conflicts of interest with the gatekeeper to mining permits.
