Oh well...
So I'm lucky to live where I live.
With 2 misfortunes coming instead of 3

There is a very good video on the tube by DTR showing the walk from the Casa, down the track, past the cottages and to the end of the track and beyond that J supposedly took, which I believe corresponds with carbuncle69 map.
'Walking Jays last known footsteps'
Brad didn't say he could hear Jay sliding on gravel. He said he could hear that he was no longer walking on the road because of the change in sound. He gave the example of being able to hear when someone is walking on gravel to clarify what he meant. It was Isla who suggested that Brad actually saw Jay's feet sliding on gravel, but Brad didn't actually agree with this statement. What he agreed to was Isla's corrected question: "like you could hear the rocks?", Brad said this: "yeah, that's how I knew he went off the road, cos, if when you walk on gravel or whatever it is, you can... you know what I mean... it's stones".Moo..his friend Brad said he could hear Jay sliding on gravel. It is easy to slide downwards on gravel, where as trying to climb up loose rock and gravel you basically have to climb on all fours to get traction. The first slip would explain how he went off road at start and got lost....moo
Thank you for this. I couldn't find that one but I did go on a deep dive through the hiking videos and it showed me why one might be tempted to take one of the hiking paths. Most of those paths I watched were fairly civilised, with steps cut into the mountain and often handrails of some sort, relatively straightforward to navigate and easy to turn round and retrace one's steps if the going got too hard. Then there are others which are designated hiking trails but which have patches where the path narrows to a foot wide with a vertical drop at the side for short distances. Too easy to stumble and fall, particularly if one is sleep deprived, panicked and without supplies. Another I found by Knightsrider shows the landscape and speaks of the less hospitable paths which intertwine, making it easy to get lost and too confusing to turn round.... plus the thin air and low temperature at that height making walking a lot more tiring than one expects. Trawling YT was an education, I admit.There is a very good video on the tube by DTR showing the walk from the Casa, down the track, past the cottages and to the end of the track and beyond that J supposedly took, which I believe corresponds with carbuncle69 map.

"The area where the body was found was highlighted yesterday afternoon with the search and rescue helicopter in the area, it is around a 20 minutes walk from the pin drop location. The terrain is rough and hazardous and having now seen the video of the search team on Monday morning and that the helicopter was in the same area on Sunday afternoon where the body was recovered, it is clear to see just how treacherous and dangerous it is - a slip or loss of footing would prove fatal.
Jay Slater family detective tells exactly why area body was found is dangerous
Jay Slater's family have been given heartbreaking news that human remains have been found in the area where their son's mobile had last pingedwww.mirror.co.uk
Yeah I never understood that. It wasn't desert like conditions. I'm a fit 46 year old and I'm fairly sure i could've made the 11 hour walk without water. Obviously it'd be torturous but a fit young man like Jay would've managed it. RIP young man. Irrespective of his past it's a heartbreaking end to a person who'll never get a chance to raise his own kids. I hope all the speculation is killed off now and MWT never darkens our doorstep again.I think because of the nearness to Dr Mosley it was first thought that heat was an issue but I believe it was later confirmed to be under 20 degrees C and actually chilly at at that time in the morning and Jay would have been quite cold in just shorts and a T ahirt
That's excellent cheers. Interestingly, people have referenced above that he was found 20 mins walk past the last known location. In the video, the end of the path is 14 minutes on. Suggesting he'd left the path and into the rough ground.There is a very good video on the tube by DTR showing the walk from the Casa, down the track, past the cottages and to the end of the track and beyond that J supposedly took, which I believe corresponds with carbuncle69 map.

Seeing this is crazy to me. Why on Gods earth would anyone want to travel through this kind of terrain? Boggles my mindMWT has shared a video of the area where he was found. No coordinates yet but it looks very rugged
Personally seems they found the body earlier (past weekend) and notified those who needed to know. So do think they have tried to be discrete.They might not share the coordinates for a while, to prevent Tiktokers from turning it into an attraction immediately. Just IMO what I would do if I was the police in this situation.
Edited: grammar
Are you saying you think the body was found before this morning, when it was only released to the public?Personally seems they found the body earlier (past weekend) and notified those who needed to know. So do thinkbthey have tried to be discrete.
Yes. The friends were posting RIP messages and the BnB guys posted some videos celebraring yesterday at the same time not for eurosAre you saying you think the body was found before this morning, when it was only released to the public?
