    People have died from the heat waiting for a bus at a bus stop in Greece. In this kind of heat wave locals only go out when it is not the peak heat time period! Going for a hike in 40+ degrees weather is not recommended no matter how fit you are!

      Great point and just like to add, he wasn’t that fit. He didn’t like exercise and claimed 3 minutes of High Intensity Exercise a week was equivalent to longer periods of exercise.. which as you can probably tell, is utter tripe.

    This is so sad. Why on earth would he go out in this heat.

N a recent trip to Thailand I observed the British and Scandinavian tourists laying ytbn the intense sun all day sun baking. Day after day. All looking like lobsters. Are they not educated the way we are about the danger of sun exposure. You would never catch an Ausie or local out in the midday sun. It’s deadly

      My Norwegian relatives insisted on walking in 103° Fahrenheit along a tarmaced road in the middle of the day in Australia. We were all watching from a window to make sure they were ok.
      When it got hot, my aunt took off her dress and walked along in her flesh coloured underwear! When a car passed, she held the dress up to her shoulders so it draped down her front, mimicking her wearing it!
      We had the binoculars out at that stage, we were so amazed... but it seems common in Scandinavia - looking through my old photos of us skiiing in the mountains in summer, she's there in her bras with her shirt tied around her waist!

      Heatstroke and dehydration can happen SO quickly, though. I’m in Portugal and all the water in the world won’t help me unless I put some salt in it. On the Greek islands it can also be deceptive because the heat feels fresh and light by comparison to the UK. Medical or not, I wouldn’t rule it out, especially for a Brit who isn’t acclimatised.

      Dogs are not robots, their ability to stay under sun in +48C is as limited as humans'. There was a team of dogs since day one of the search.
      We have protective boots and clothes. How a dog is supposed to run on that hostile rocky terrain in 47-48c without hurting / burning its paws? As for myself I wouldn't be ready to sacrifice my dog...
      Though I have a question here - how his companions let him walk away across very rocky paths, 67 y.o., alone in unbearable heat 52c in unknown surroundings that could be very challenging and confusing... If one doesn't feel well then they all, his wife and friends, should have left together.

    I hope what's happened is that he's become overcome by the heat and some local has found him and taken him home to let him recover. He may be with somebody who doesn't know who he is and doesn't realise he's being looked for. I don't know how big that island is or if there are any of the original locals left on it. Could Michael Mosley have found his way to somewhere remote and been taken into a farmhouse?

The possibilities are many and not having one with him is no real indication of 'malice aforethought' ! Let him just be found, he may be in need of urgent treatment for a number of reasons, including dehydration which can cause hallucinations and general fatigue and confusion...

      Possible.
      But he could also just have left his phone behind as many people do on a regular basis, especially because he was with three other people.
      We'd have to know if he used to leave his phone at home sometimes or if this was really out of the ordinary.

    There are other cases of people going missing in Greece. An older man same age as Mosley went missing there few years ago and they're still looking

      Yes. It was John Tossell, a 78-year-old man from South Wales. A lot less police effort took place in searching.

    surely he is in the sea, otherwise he would bepicked up by a thermal imaging camera.if he died of thirst he would have stayed on the path. i bet he just tripped and slipped He is an intelligant man, I doubt he would have no water and choose to go a harder path, knowing his wife had expected him back earlier and he had no phone.just an accident.
