YouTuber and writer David Wilcock is believed to have died by suicide outside his Colorado home days after he livestreamed about recent deaths in the UFO theorist community
Paranormal writer and YouTuber David Wilcock died on Monday, April 20.
Wilcock is known for his books, livestreams, and appearances on the History Channel show Ancient Aliens. A media release from the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office shared that the man, believed to be Wilcock, took his own life outside his home in Nederland, Colorado.
His death was later confirmed by Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna on X, formerly known as Twitter. “We just learned of the tragic passing of David Wilcock. We are praying for his family and loved ones and the millions of lives he impacted. [dove emoji] John 8:32,” Luna wrote. The news of his death comes after the FBI said it would investigate the whereabouts of missing or dead scientists.

Wilcock’s net worth isn’t public record, but according to the Hindustan Times, it’s estimated to be between $1 and $5 million, taking into account his books and television appearances.
After his death, Wilcock’s fans found the star’s last livestream on YouTube, which occurred two days before he took his own life. During this livestream, Wilcock touched on recent deaths within the UFO theorist community.
Fellow Ancient Aliens alum, Nick Pope, died a few weeks prior after revealing that he had stage IV oesophageal cancer in February. Erich von Däniken, a conspiracy theorist from Switzerland, died in January 2026.
“I’m excited to be here, you know, every day that I have on earth is a gift and a blessing, and I’m very grateful for that because frankly, people are disappearing. Scientists are going missing,” Wilcock said during his livestream.
He continued, “Now they’re saying that they’re gonna investigate this. The president himself is saying they’re gonna look into this and see if anything is going on.”
“I gotta say it’s a little bit scary but you guys knew that I might still show up even though it was last minute and I’ve had a really rough week. Like you know, that’s kinda like every week, but somehow we keep on making it through all this,” he said.
According to the aforementioned media release from the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office, they received a 911 call on April 20 at 10:44 a.m. “The emergency communications specialist who took the call suspected the caller was experiencing a mental health crisis,” the release stated.
Authorities arrived at the scene at 11:02 a.m. and encountered, who is believed to be, Wilcock, who had a weapon that he reportedly “used [it] on himself” and was pronounced dead on the scene.
