Paul, you are keeping this case alive sir… excellent work, ignore the armchair haters, you are there being part of the solution. It’s guys like you that make the difference. Keep them coming Amigo, glued to your daily vlogs now. Top work…👍👍👍
@@karenbrooks8862 Kaz , l come from a family of wetters. Great gramps was a wetter, gramps was a wetter and my dad also wet the bed. I take after my mum's side of the family . I never was a wetter 😊
Thank you for everything your doing to find jay and for keeping him out there i appreciate all your efforts and i hope your looking after yourself too and eating a more balanced diet than you were when you first went out there and please stay hydrated and stay safe big love and respect to you ❤❤
We never doubted you! Ignore the hate on tiktok, the app is toxic and people are awful! You're a good person with a good heart and the rest of us are behind you 😊!
Thanks for sharing this video, which shows us just how inhospitable and vast the terrain is. You've been putting so much energy and effort into this. Thank you.
Literally a minute into this and already have questions 😢. The road work peeked my interest and what a walk this looks like an impossible search and rescue / recovery. Prayers for Jay and his family❤
Paul thankyou for the insight of the terrain you have been covering. You have been amazing and relentless, so much respect to you. It must have been so hard for you to tackle this each day relentlessly. Thankyou for your staying power, you are one great guy. Much love and positive vibes sent your way, take care of you🧡✌️
Paul wish people was more like you All them haters on TikTok is unbelievable, especially Hayley Keep your good work up. We are all behind you Love and respect x
I had done this "walk" through Google Streetview, but it's definitely not the same at all. It doesn't give you a proper idea, and it misses the part when Jay walked off the road. Paul is doing a great job
If he wanted to help he would but he’s creating content out of it so ultimately he’s making money someone said he made 5k off 1 TikTok live😂 just another note not 1 of his recent tik toks is under a minute just saying
I've been following in owe.... but hearing you won't hand over where searched or grids.... not sure how it work but this work is being done in the best interests of Jay
What really comes across is how the perspective of distance across valleys and true height of the cacti and aloe vera is difficult to gauge. Everything looks on a much smaller scale until you get up close up to it. Well done Paul, this video is excellent.
I'm 17 minutes into ur video Paul & I dont think there is any way he would have tried to go too far off road. That terrain is way too treacherous like you've said in all your videos.. Thanks for doing a video from the air b&b up that road. It gives a better insight into things from Jay's perspective. I'm even more convinced of foul play at this point unfortunately. Stay safe Paul
Hes a young lad he would of had no idea how difficult this would be to walk, don't forget drugs and alcohol most likely play a part here. Thank god Paul's carrying on looking because he's out there somewhere
In my opinion a 19 year old hungover with shorts on would not willingly go into undergrowth unless he slipped and fell in and at that point would be easily found surely .. he would use technology to find a route and Apple Maps does take you off road I checked myself .. I don’t think he went mountain climbing with trainers and shorts on he was looking for food water and his hotel
There was no reason for him too walk down there none whatsoever, the phone pinged is wrong it's out he never left the road, if anything he realised he was going in the wrong direction and walked back the way, on road something has happened while walking on the road, but definitely he's not in there not a hope
What's weird to me is if I'm Brad and that's my mate I'm up there with the search team trying to pin point and show what I could see on that final call
Well done paul doin this walk . That looks one scary walk even in daylight. But as a mother I would of did this walk with u if many my sons were missing out there .
Writing this the day after the body was found thank you for uploading this video. Just a couple of minutes into the video you can see obviously nobody in their right mind would be going off-road without a very good reason.
Many thanks for this video it really shows how difficult it is to search there. I visited Masca for the first time almost 40 years ago. Then just like now, I don't understand how people can choose to settle there. How did they support themselves and what did they live on, one might askThe village is more than 1000 years old and was founded by the indigenous guanche population. The tour guide described it as the forgotten village which makes sense. it was very difficult to get to and from there and many people living even close by did not know the village. Tourism and better roads changed that. Masca looks very much like the valleys do on the neighboring island of La Gomera. In La Gomera there are no roads along the coast. Instead, you have to go up a bit and then go down into the various valleys. They use terraces to be able to grow, just like they seem to do in some places in Masca. I'm afraid we never may find Jay considering even dogs find it hard to move around in this terrain. Goats seem to manage better. I pray for Jay and his family.
I am from Masca. I would like to thank for this video, showing Jay's last steps. It is tragic, it should never have happened. I know well the territory, I am a hiker, the boy was completely disorientated, I am still regretting his destiny. Masca Valley ends at the point view with the coffee shop. You have entered, following Jay, the next ravine, el barranco de Juan López, abandoned many years ago. I will never forget him. Thank you for your walk.
You do realise his supposed body was found 2.5 hours down the barranco? Yeah right, off his head, no water, wearing flimsy footwear and shorts and he gets that far!!
Thank you for the update and showing the route Jay took , still seems bizarre why he would go off road to walk into that where looking at it you would potentially know you would be more in a situation to get lost or get hurt , surely he would of seen that and walked back up to the main road he would of had more chance of flagging a car or someone for help . It’s so sad 😢bless him I do hope he is found 🙏💙 take care Paul so much respect for what your doing xx
So what stoney area he sliding down with the white road stones visable in the background then if what he friend suggests he must of been sliding down off near the road before this track ????
Paul this is a brilliant video , so detailed! I think this has just given everybody an understanding of the task...dear God! It's a good job you are fit, you'd have to be for this!! Sorry to hear about Pedro, can't believe it! You need to be in Masca, you can do all this if you are not. Keep safe
This video is ( in the sad circumstances) terrific . Everyone’s showing maps and areas without the route , so unless you can read maps or been physically it was hard to understand where he went etc . I’ve always stuck up for yourself and others and will forever do so . I can understand why he would cut down to the dirt track and get lost as it’s a dead end so he definitely gone via bush . The phone ping has to be out by a few feet .. Noway he went into that bush unless as Chris said it’s been tossed . Keep up good work Paul 😊
IF, IF jay was there, I can see how he would have said to Lucy he is lost, it makes sense now seeing it visually, he wouldn't have been able to find his way back from there, from where Paul said he had been walking 37minutes, although it's one path but when it all looks the same and panic sets in plus the state he was in, the search guys could walk past him in a ditch and you would never see him, really 😔
@@em6577that’s correct, it seems he did not want to go back to Los christianos the normal way, Ophelia directed him to the bust stop, and he goes the opposite way, which is what Paul’s route is showing.
No way was seriously attempting that walk on a come down or nights drinking or both... Even if he was still buzzing from gear you would still know that walk is ridiculous , people are talking like he was actually attempting to walk back but it's more likely trying to cut across to find a main Rd to flag a taxi without being seen by whoever he was avoiding
It looks like a very vast area. If Jay was walking that route there seems to be plenty of sections at the side of the road where he could rest and flag down a car for help. If he was thirsty and hungry he would have waited at the cafe, if he was ever really on that road. Also, why are you on your own surely some of his friends or family that asked you to go out there would do these walks with you. Be careful Paul, something doesn't feel right about this.
@@mmull6620 No they stopped in Santiago del Teide in the car on the way to the Airbnb, there is a cafe and a petrol station there with a small shop that both open around 5:30am according to Google maps. Don't know why a cafe in a tiny town in Tenerife opens so ridiculously early, but apparently it does.
You are having a hard time breathing because of the Saharan dust. Calima is a term used in the Canary Islands for a weather phenomenon involving dusty, warm winds from the Sahara Desert. It creates a hot, dry fog that can cause irritation to the airways, reduce visibility, headaches, nausea and cover surfaces with fine dust.
I find it hard to believe that he would go off the road, in my mind I would have stayed on the road but then if he had surely someone would have found him near to the road but no one has. This video is really interesting but gives loads more questions about this situation. It also shows the vast area you are having to cover daily. Keep up the great work Paul and stay safe. ⛰️ ☀️
What an informative video. I can't understand why he said he was lost. If he turned back, he would have ended up on the road again. Dehydration and confusion, I guess, but It dont sit right. Thank you for doing this video.
It makes so much sense that Jay was heading down towards the sea hoping for a beach or some cars, people, normality. He's left the road, started to do a short cut. Phone pinged, continued walking got to the end where this guy stopped recording, was to tired to walk back up so continued to cut across heading down towards the sea. I think he's in the terrain n they've not found him or fallen in the sea.
Have you thought about getting to the point of the phone ping, then trying to work your way back to the main road, as this is what Lucy told him to do, looking for any possible shortcuts back to the main road, having walked that far, a shortcut back to the road sounds like a plausible option.
Seeing this area it's easy to see how Jay would think he could take a shortcut with hopes of cutting off hours of his journey. Equally easy to see how he could become disorientated and become lost. 😞
Been told he can stay where Jay stayed😱🤔🫣there's no way that lad went on that route after supposedly being woken from sleep ,,,,💊 and alcohol consumed other several days , as anyone that has woken from such would no* not in a million years, after seeing your video im going back to the theory that he attempted it went back up to the road and that woman Ofelia ran him over she was the last person to see him alive ,,, maybe the cameras need to time her journey and figure out if she stopped and what other cars left/came into masca ,, maybe the guys in the lay by went to check as shed said shed hit someone (they haven't identified themselves or came forward🤔he was then moved it's only logical thing as if he was in mountains there would be signs from the birds with him decomposing in heat ,they say that woman pedro ECT are well connected ... maybe they took him back to bnb after being hit hence the painting cleaning n blood traces found ,maybe he passed from injury's there and their all part of the cover up ...hence all the story's being here, there and every where ... ... IF HE EVER LEFT THE BNB IN THE FIRST PLACE THAT IS without delving into the dark theories flying about . One thing is for sure that boy never left masca on foot definatliy not after seeing this video ,hopefully now UK and interpol will look into it after seeing this what with the family saying they need their help to ,,a very informative video thank you for keeping him in the limelight and raising awareness of the dangers abroad not just with predators but the difference in legal systems /authorities handling of such may justice be found for him and all others missing 🪬🧿
What you said about the bus stop is exactly what I was thinking. He’s been out, no sleep so probably it fully tuned in. That bus stop would make you think the buses were heading in that direction
Add to that the fact that it's a narrow road that doesn't even have a dividing line to visualise two lanes, so that would confuse Jay even more, probably making him think it's a one-way road at the beginning of his walk if there was no traffic at that early time. I'm Spanish but I have been living in the UK for almost a decade. I swear, even I some times get confused when I'm visiting my family back in Spain (like my brain's been rewired).
I'm not convinced he was ever there, these "witnesses" Can be fabricated in these type of cases to push a narrative but if I was doing a runner from the Airbnb I would of just hid in the bushes for 2 hours till the bus came, if he was there and the witness said he was alone at the bus stop then clearly nobody was chasing him, why not just listen for the bus or hide in the bushes while keeping an eye on the bus , soon as it come sprint to it and back to las Americas in no time... I think the witness is fake,, paid money to lie or being the Airbnb owner is connected to Lucy and is lying about seeing Jay, but even if he was there and went walking and was scared of the lads, surely he could of found a road eventually and flagged a car down it's not Alaska
What a vast area and the conditions... PLEASE STAY SAFE PAUL ... YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ... Please keep yourself self aswell it looks very difficult terrain 🙏🙏🙏
There's no way I'd continue walking up this hill after seeing nothing but mountains especially feeling tired and exhausted when the bus is 10min away.. jake or anyone would've said, "Fuck this and walked back but noone probably saw him since it was very early and if I was thirsty I'd probably go left where all those buildings were to look for a shop or ask those residents for a cup of drink before making my way back up.
Looking at how vast that area is I cannot believe anyone would think to go walking in that, surely you would stick to the road, I just really can't see it myself, but who knows eh😢
I'm a searcher, and with an area that big generally a high def drone is used and it records the entire location. The drone/camera has Long/Lat capabilities. The data is downloaded and teams sit and examine the footage via the computer. Programs are used with that data that can pick out a particular color and mark the frame/area/gps so teams can go to that exact area to check it out. It is commendable what you are doing, but viewing all this shaky camera footage isn't doing the missing person any favors, and it quite honestly sensless & maddening.
Well at least he is still out there searching, where is everyone else, plus the Police had drones out. Paul knows all kinds of terrains, he is a climber luckily. But just maybe, this video could give a different outlook or pointers, that can be given to the Police or his parents, that may potentially give some answers.
Was there a sign for opening hours on the cafe door? I’m not convinced he kept going. I reckon he went back and foul play occurred on return somewhere along the road. Were the men with car darting down to ditch at around the same time Jay went missing? Do you not feel creeped out by staying in that Airbnb?
It's so sad that he was so close, and you couldn't be the one to find him. You worked so damn hard Paul. 😢 I hope that you can also heal from this situation 🙏
Oh how sad,😢 Paul’s worked so hard . What time stamp of you don’t mind me asking ? I was wondering if this video showed the area or if jay was found somewhere not included in this video
For me, the first point he’s seen the sea from that road point / route he’s headed in that direction towards the sea over that terrain. His friend Brad has stated in the conversation they had that Jay stated “He (Jay) said I’m not walking round all that road & he was off road sliding down some stones”. So that tells us he’s gone into that terrain. And watching this footage I very much doubt Jay as stayed on that road the length of time you have. Especially after a 3 day bender, dehydrated, coming down off drugs, no phone. In this state Jay would’ve been feeling desperate. & that’s why I’m sensing the first point he’s seen the sea & he’s headed that way. Sounds grim but I feel you have been closer to Jay than you realise.
Police haven't actually disclosed where body was found, adding that dogs didnt previously pick up on scent for a body apparently in the wild for almost a month is suss..
I just cant see someone whose been on a night out is thirsty walking that far. Sadly i have a feeling he never was there Monday morning someone else had his phone.
Haven't seen this video before and even though it would appear that Jays body may have been found, I wanted to see the route he'd walked. Well done to you for spending so many hours, days searching thru' this terrain, what a nightmare of a place to have to work your way through. How this body has been found at all (even if it isn't his) is mind blowing given how all this area appears to be, it does appear to have been in an area that seems to be off one of those huge ridges. I hope to god this will be a warning to anyone, whatever age you are, to not venture anywhere alone when in a country you're not from - for a million reasons! Also, don't leave your accomodation before fully charging your phone!!! Well done Paul, I hope you go take some time to relax now, as do all the searchers.
Don't care what anyone says I really feel it for his mother. His family just seem like naive working people and like a lot of parents didn't know what their son was up to until the court aspect. It's alright us all having theories but I'll confer that if placed in their position, trolls would be insignificant to what they are experiencing.
I’d stay there! Then Debbie can pay for forensics to comb that place and find out if Jay really was in there,if he was I’m sure there would still be fingerprints or something.
@@puppymia1 Because it’s the only place available to stay that’s near to the search area.. otherwise it will involve lots of travelling /buses and that’s before even searching. However I would not stay there either!
Great video Paul!👏🏼 It really puts into perspective fully what the environment out there & even someone fit like you(with mountain climbing experience)feel how difficult it is, so Jay the morning after a rave, and just wearing shorts & t shirts, would of found it extremely hard. Sorry Pedro can’t let you stay on, as that had been at least one weight off your mind, but hope you manage to secure somewhere such as the B & B. You have really been a real trooper out there Paul💪🏼, so please don’t think we all don’t see the hard work you are putting in, its just the trolls with nothing better to do than criticise, when they likely have done absolutely nothing to help. They are actually detrimental , as it helps to have people boosting your moral, and thanking you, as you have spent weeks on this, purely to help a fellow Brit be found. One thing I wanted to say though is please keep your wits about you, more so now, as if this was something nefarious & you one of the only few still searching it could be that you are a target, because if he has been taken, they won’t want him found. Considering the police crew left you on your own that day too, I would make sure you are wary of even the nicest ‘seeming’ people as they could be either media or people with intent on stopping you. Said a prayer for you for safety🙏🏼 Keep up the great work but please take rest too💙👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I think he was sliding down making his way down to the sea hoping there was a beach n the road back to where he was staying. I think he's made it to the bottom and maybe fallen in the sea n that's why they can't find him.
I would not overlook storm drains a kid disappeared here a few years ago and he was found naked in a storm drain and the case remains unsolved. It’s a convenient place to hide a body, and a convenient place to hide.
What time did he leave the Airbnb? Time the walk and work out when he was on the phone and how long he was walking until the end of the last call. If you walk and talk until the call end time instead of phone ping ..????
We can only imagine how difficult the terrain is to navigate. It would be very easy to have an opinion but unless you’re there feet on that ground one can’t comprehend it. I went there in 1996 and from memory it was difficult back then but I’ve slept since. Well done on being there and looking still.
i dont know if you understand but the longer version video like this is incredibly helpful to try and piece together the last footsteps and trail he would have taken, i wish i could afford a trip over there and be able to bring my drones.. there is so much area to cover and all the help the family could get im sure is very much appreciated, and you know jay would appreciate it. keep up gods work sir!
I hope these people who speculated his death can now shut up, poor kid, young and fearless probably went to get a nice pic of the sun rise and slipped. RIP young man
El problema que veo es que Jay pudo caminar bastante desde que se terminó la batería. Yo creo que está mucho más lejos ....una hora, dos y hasta 5 mas lejos ...PD no he visto a nadie en todo el video....ni buscando ni circulando....es muy solitario
Having watched this video and thinking would he really go through all that bush heavily grown areas , he has been drinking all weekend he wouldn’t have had the energy for it , am starting to think foul play , something just don’t seem right ,
Amazing views . Great video. Really puts things into perspective and shows you just how difficult it would be to even attempt to walk that distance . If you went off road it would be so easy to get lost .
Great work Paul. If Jay took the route you walked he was heading to the coast for sure - just looking for a route 'off the hill'. From the end of that path to the coast is a couple of cliks - nasty terrain but temps in the low 20's that day so doable even with no fluids. If possible start at the coast and work back from there. Good luck and keep safe.
Appreciate this video, it helps me understand what Jay was against, I believe he grew disorientated and ill from dehydration and lack of sleep…thank you for caring. ❤❤❤
Hes a teenage boy he absolutely would of walked threw they thinking He could cut threw also he isn't from there so wouldn't of realised how dangerous it is. And also boys don't see danger I have w teenagers my self no fear
If he'd walked that way past that camera people would have seen him 100%. People were literally looking at the time lapse on that webcam 2 hours after he was reported missing.
Surely if he had walked to the end of that gravel path he wouldn’t have then thought he could get through all that bushy area?? I know he had had a good night the night before and wasn’t at his best but the lads common sense would have kicked in at some point surely? Paul you are simply an angel. I hope this video shuts a lot of the armchair detectives up now that they can see what you are up against. Why has pedro changed his mind about you staying at his though?
Why on earth would anyone go on that mission unless you wanted to cover up something - thanks for the tour its had for me to believe that anyone with a brain would do this after a night out
Hope you are good Paul. Really hope something comes up soon. I cant imagine what Jays family & friends are going through. Please keep us all updated over there ❤
What 19 year old after a three day bender really is thinking clearly? that desperation to get back to your friends also not knowing the area and thinking things are alot closer than they are and it's not as far to walk. I truly believe he was already dead by the time the search teams were out there. He could have fallen had a heart attack anything could of happend out there. He needs to be found desperately to bring peace to his family and stop all the crazy theories and absolute horrendous things that are being said about this young lad and his family. This is another case that's really has made me hate the human race there's so little compassion out there from people it's sickening
I liked being able to follow the whole path with you. After that 25 min mark I got a couple of psychic hits. I feel he tried to walk down towards the ocean, believing he can find his way back following along the coast, however, there is no connection to the beach back to los Christianos, it’s all rocks. He may have collapsed from dehydration and heat exhaustion.
How eerie and sad being able to see the route he took and that he is probably out there. 😢
Paul, you are keeping this case alive sir… excellent work, ignore the armchair haters, you are there being part of the solution. It’s guys like you that make the difference. Keep them coming Amigo, glued to your daily vlogs now. Top work…👍👍👍
He's under investigation for stealing money and obsconding he's not even in Spain anymore
O you can drive down to the part where is phone was thrown and pinged interesting say no more 😮

Well done paul doin this walk . That looks one scary walk even in daylight. But as a mother I would of did this walk with u if many my sons were missing out there .
They didn't search because he was never there. Teenagers are lazy as hell, they don't "hike" it home 11 hours.
They're not like the older generation.
Absolutely i would be and all my family, doing as much as possible up there and anywhere down in the busy parts. Not out of sight of everyone.
Is they any validity to the lads phone call with him, do the police have a recording of it or are they just going off what he and Lucy said?

IF, IF jay was there, I can see how he would have said to Lucy he is lost, it makes sense now seeing it visually, he wouldn't have been able to find his way back from there, from where Paul said he had been walking 37minutes, although it's one path but when it all looks the same and panic sets in plus the state he was in, the search guys could walk past him in a ditch and you would never see him, really 😔
My main thought is'how many teenagers walk anywhere these days.99.9% would have waited for the bus or got a lift,not set off on a massive walk.
Bingo. They're not like older generations who used to hitchhike.
Unless he was trying to get away from someone or something
@@em6577that’s correct, it seems he did not want to go back to Los christianos the normal way, Ophelia directed him to the bust stop, and he goes the opposite way, which is what Paul’s route is showing.
No way was seriously attempting that walk on a come down or nights drinking or both... Even if he was still buzzing from gear you would still know that walk is ridiculous , people are talking like he was actually attempting to walk back but it's more likely trying to cut across to find a main Rd to flag a taxi without being seen by whoever he was avoiding
It looks like a very vast area.
If Jay was walking that route there seems to be plenty of sections at the side of the road where he could rest and flag down a car for help.
If he was thirsty and hungry he would have waited at the cafe, if he was ever really on that road.
Also, why are you on your own surely some of his friends or family that asked you to go out there would do these walks with you.
Be careful Paul, something doesn't feel right about this.
Cafe doesn't open until 10am.
what don’t you get he never even made this walk. lucy came up with this story to get off track where he really went
@mellowmarkable I thought they supposedly stopped there for a fizzy drink on the way to the Airbnb or am I mistaken.
@@mmull6620 No they stopped in Santiago del Teide in the car on the way to the Airbnb, there is a cafe and a petrol station there with a small shop that both open around 5:30am according to Google maps. Don't know why a cafe in a tiny town in Tenerife opens so ridiculously early, but apparently it does.
@@mellowmarkable thank you for clarification on that.
You are having a hard time breathing because of the Saharan dust. Calima is a term used in the Canary Islands for a weather phenomenon involving dusty, warm winds from the Sahara Desert. It creates a hot, dry fog that can cause irritation to the airways, reduce visibility, headaches, nausea and cover surfaces with fine dust.
Bus stop left hand side. That’s solves that one. Thanks for walking us true jays last seen movements.
I definitely do not think you should stay at the air b&b, all sounds abit weird. I think he was running away from someone and they caught him!
I find it hard to believe that he would go off the road, in my mind I would have stayed on the road but then if he had surely someone would have found him near to the road but no one has. This video is really interesting but gives loads more questions about this situation. It also shows the vast area you are having to cover daily. Keep up the great work Paul and stay safe. ⛰️ ☀️
So were did Ofelia ser him when se was driving 15 minutes after he left ?
Great question
That is a bloody good question. Pauls video here should be able to give a rough idea of an answer to that question ❤
What an informative video. I can't understand why he said he was lost. If he turned back, he would have ended up on the road again. Dehydration and confusion, I guess, but It dont sit right. Thank you for doing this video.
Good on you for showing people x❤
It makes so much sense that Jay was heading down towards the sea hoping for a beach or some cars, people, normality. He's left the road, started to do a short cut. Phone pinged, continued walking got to the end where this guy stopped recording, was to tired to walk back up so continued to cut across heading down towards the sea. I think he's in the terrain n they've not found him or fallen in the sea.
Have you thought about getting to the point of the phone ping, then trying to work your way back to the main road, as this is what Lucy told him to do, looking for any possible shortcuts back to the main road, having walked that far, a shortcut back to the road sounds like a plausible option.
I can’t get over that it’s only taken ten minutes but yet looks much further away 😮
Where did those three lads take the photo in the early hours? Each one standing on the white square barriers along the road side ??
Seeing this area it's easy to see how Jay would think he could take a shortcut with hopes of cutting off hours of his journey. Equally easy to see how he could become disorientated and become lost. 😞
Absolute madness guys Absolute madness!! Big love!!!
Been told he can stay where Jay stayed😱🤔🫣there's no way that lad went on that route after supposedly being woken from sleep ,,,,💊 and alcohol consumed other several days , as anyone that has woken from such would no* not in a million years, after seeing your video im going back to the theory that he attempted it went back up to the road and that woman Ofelia ran him over she was the last person to see him alive ,,, maybe the cameras need to time her journey and figure out if she stopped and what other cars left/came into masca ,, maybe the guys in the lay by went to check as shed said shed hit someone (they haven't identified themselves or came forward🤔he was then moved it's only logical thing as if he was in mountains there would be signs from the birds with him decomposing in heat ,they say that woman pedro ECT are well connected ... maybe they took him back to bnb after being hit hence the painting cleaning n blood traces found ,maybe he passed from injury's there and their all part of the cover up ...hence all the story's being here, there and every where ... ... IF HE EVER LEFT THE BNB IN THE FIRST PLACE THAT IS without delving into the dark theories flying about .
One thing is for sure that boy never left masca on foot definatliy not after seeing this video ,hopefully now UK and interpol will look into it after seeing this what with the family saying they need their help to ,,a very informative video thank you for keeping him in the limelight and raising awareness of the dangers abroad not just with predators but the difference in legal systems /authorities handling of such may justice be found for him and all others missing 🪬🧿
I think this is a very good theory to be honest !! Why didn’t they check the blood spots on the steps? 😮
Interesting theory
What you said about the bus stop is exactly what I was thinking. He’s been out, no sleep so probably it fully tuned in. That bus stop would make you think the buses were heading in that direction
Add to that the fact that it's a narrow road that doesn't even have a dividing line to visualise two lanes, so that would confuse Jay even more, probably making him think it's a one-way road at the beginning of his walk if there was no traffic at that early time. I'm Spanish but I have been living in the UK for almost a decade. I swear, even I some times get confused when I'm visiting my family back in Spain (like my brain's been rewired).
@@georgezee5173absolutely! I honestly think this is why he was heading uphill to start with
Also when you apple map the route it takes you uphill
@@catkilic1my thoughts also
I'm not convinced he was ever there, these "witnesses" Can be fabricated in these type of cases to push a narrative but if I was doing a runner from the Airbnb I would of just hid in the bushes for 2 hours till the bus came, if he was there and the witness said he was alone at the bus stop then clearly nobody was chasing him, why not just listen for the bus or hide in the bushes while keeping an eye on the bus , soon as it come sprint to it and back to las Americas in no time... I think the witness is fake,, paid money to lie or being the Airbnb owner is connected to Lucy and is lying about seeing Jay, but even if he was there and went walking and was scared of the lads, surely he could of found a road eventually and flagged a car down it's not Alaska
Thank you for all your hard work
HOW LONG HAS THE ROAD WORKS BEEN GOING ON? had it already started before jay went missing?
Can't imagine a young lad, hung over, drugged up, scared and thirsty could have managed a fraction of that walk 🤷♀️
Why did he walk up the way and not down the way? It just doesn’t make sense
I get a really bad feeling hearing you say your gonna stay at the b&b. Please don't stay there Paul, find anywhere but there . Stay safe buddy ❤
even if he did pass out due to no water he wouldn't of dropped that far by the looks of all them bushes being so close together
What a vast area and the conditions... PLEASE STAY SAFE PAUL ... YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ... Please keep yourself self aswell it looks very difficult terrain 🙏🙏🙏
There's no way I'd continue walking up this hill after seeing nothing but mountains especially feeling tired and exhausted when the bus is 10min away.. jake or anyone would've said, "Fuck this and walked back but noone probably saw him since it was very early and if I was thirsty I'd probably go left where all those buildings were to look for a shop or ask those residents for a cup of drink before making my way back up.
I notice at least two drain covers have they been opened and checked
Interesting theory should be checked
Looking at how vast that area is I cannot believe anyone would think to go walking in that, surely you would stick to the road, I just really can't see it myself, but who knows eh😢
I'm a searcher, and with an area that big generally a high def drone is used and it records the entire location. The drone/camera has Long/Lat capabilities. The data is downloaded and teams sit and examine the footage via the computer. Programs are used with that data that can pick out a particular color and mark the frame/area/gps so teams can go to that exact area to check it out. It is commendable what you are doing, but viewing all this shaky camera footage isn't doing the missing person any favors, and it quite honestly sensless & maddening.
Well at least he is still out there searching, where is everyone else, plus the Police had drones out. Paul knows all kinds of terrains, he is a climber luckily. But just maybe, this video could give a different outlook or pointers, that can be given to the Police or his parents, that may potentially give some answers.
Was there a sign for opening hours on the cafe door?
I’m not convinced he kept going. I reckon he went back and foul play occurred on return somewhere along the road. Were the men with car darting down to ditch at around the same time Jay went missing?
Do you not feel creeped out by staying in that Airbnb?
Noone has seen him walking back to the airbnb, have they?
It's so sad that he was so close, and you couldn't be the one to find him. You worked so damn hard Paul. 😢 I hope that you can also heal from this situation 🙏
Blimey Paul, you walked right past where his family have laid flowers today. You must have been so, so close 😢 you worked tirelessly.
Rip Jay 😢
Oh how sad,😢 Paul’s worked so hard . What time stamp of you don’t mind me asking ? I was wondering if this video showed the area or if jay was found somewhere not included in this video
For me, the first point he’s seen the sea from that road point / route he’s headed in that direction towards the sea over that terrain.
His friend Brad has stated in the conversation they had that Jay stated “He (Jay) said I’m not walking round all that road & he was off road sliding down some stones”. So that tells us he’s gone into that terrain.
And watching this footage I very much doubt Jay as stayed on that road the length of time you have. Especially after a 3 day bender, dehydrated, coming down off drugs, no phone. In this state Jay would’ve been feeling desperate.
& that’s why I’m sensing the first point he’s seen the sea & he’s headed that way.
Sounds grim but I feel you have been closer to Jay than you realise.
Apparnelt there are vultures on tenerife, you would've thought there had been sightings of them circling in the sky if his body was in that area
Police haven't actually disclosed where body was found, adding that dogs didnt previously pick up on scent for a body apparently in the wild for almost a month is suss..
I just cant see someone whose been on a night out is thirsty walking that far. Sadly i have a feeling he never was there Monday morning someone else had his phone.
I agree.!!
Haven't seen this video before and even though it would appear that Jays body may have been found, I wanted to see the route he'd walked. Well done to you for spending so many hours, days searching thru' this terrain, what a nightmare of a place to have to work your way through. How this body has been found at all (even if it isn't his) is mind blowing given how all this area appears to be, it does appear to have been in an area that seems to be off one of those huge ridges. I hope to god this will be a warning to anyone, whatever age you are, to not venture anywhere alone when in a country you're not from - for a million reasons! Also, don't leave your accomodation before fully charging your phone!!! Well done Paul, I hope you go take some time to relax now, as do all the searchers.
That was good to see his route taken. Keep up the good work in searching. Well done you for all your hard work 👏
What an amazing video, just so sorry you had to come here under these tragic circumstances. A real needle in a haystack job. Take care, keep safe.
Don't care what anyone says I really feel it for his mother. His family just seem like naive working people and like a lot of parents didn't know what their son was up to until the court aspect. It's alright us all having theories but I'll confer that if placed in their position, trolls would be insignificant to what they are experiencing.
DO NOT stay in that air B n B Paul. Red flags !
Jeez my thoughts exactly, Pedro all of a sudden changes his.mind after being so helpful, then suggesting stay in the b and b jay was at, no way pedro
I’d stay there! Then Debbie can pay for forensics to comb that place and find out if Jay really was in there,if he was I’m sure there would still be fingerprints or something.
@@jacquelinecook6275it’s all been prof cleaned and the bit at the back on wall has been re-painted.
Why would you even want to stay there because I wouldn't want too personally
@@puppymia1 Because it’s the only place available to stay that’s near to the search area.. otherwise it will involve lots of travelling /buses and that’s before even searching. However I would not stay there either!
Well whaever anyone spoke negatively about you,,, I THINK YOU ARE BRILLIANT,,, THANK YOU DARLING ❤😂❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏😭
Great video Paul!👏🏼 It really puts into perspective fully what the environment out there & even someone fit like you(with mountain climbing experience)feel how difficult it is, so Jay the morning after a rave, and just wearing shorts & t shirts, would of found it extremely hard.
Sorry Pedro can’t let you stay on, as that had been at least one weight off your mind, but hope you manage to secure somewhere such as the B & B.
You have really been a real trooper out there Paul💪🏼, so please don’t think we all don’t see the hard work you are putting in, its just the trolls with nothing better to do than criticise, when they likely have done absolutely nothing to help. They are actually detrimental , as it helps to have people boosting your moral, and thanking you, as you have spent weeks on this, purely to help a fellow Brit be found.
One thing I wanted to say though is please keep your wits about you, more so now, as if this was something nefarious & you one of the only few still searching it could be that you are a target, because if he has been taken, they won’t want him found. Considering the police crew left you on your own that day too, I would make sure you are wary of even the nicest ‘seeming’ people as they could be either media or people with intent on stopping you. Said a prayer for you for safety🙏🏼 Keep up the great work but please take rest too💙👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
*morale (excuse any typo’s)
He was never in the mountains GUYS, this dude when he speaks is the equivalent of the lighthouse family song "lifted"
So where was he last on the phone to Brad, where he slid down? Because on this walk you haven’t had to slide down anywhere?
My thoughts exactly I am now thinking someone threw his phone into this area as it pinged there 😢
Makes me want to visit Tenerife, scenery looks amazing.
Reminds me of the Grand Canyon a bit but the mountains are more red and orange
I've been seven times. Yes it is very beautiful
Thank you for this video.
Surly Jay would only be sliding down if he could see the road at the bottom. Not just down in to bush’s
When you walk up and round the road you are able to look back down onto the road he was on he might have tried a short cut between the roads
I think he was sliding down making his way down to the sea hoping there was a beach n the road back to where he was staying. I think he's made it to the bottom and maybe fallen in the sea n that's why they can't find him.
Love to live right up there. I will never get tired of the view.
Can't believe he managed 10 minutes of that walk to be honest 🤷♀️
Already, a couple of minutes in, and you can see you are going deeper and deeper into the mountains. Why on Earth would anyone do that?
I would not overlook storm drains a kid disappeared here a few years ago and he was found naked in a storm drain and the case remains unsolved. It’s a convenient place to hide a body, and a convenient place to hide.
Was this the little boy Noah donohoe in Ireland, so sad that his mum never got answers :(
Another one there seems to be a lot of young people going missing in Tenerife and that lady who was found dismembered in the sea
😮😮😮
Thank you for taking the time to show exactly where what how when . R I p jay
What time did he leave the Airbnb? Time the walk and work out when he was on the phone and how long he was walking until the end of the last call. If you walk and talk until the call end time instead of phone ping ..????
having two order teen boys myself, I think he was escaping / running away from someone, 😢 thanks for your coverage
Up a hill ? Sounds fishy.
We can only imagine how difficult the terrain is to navigate. It would be very easy to have an opinion but unless you’re there feet on that ground one can’t comprehend it. I went there in 1996 and from memory it was difficult back then but I’ve slept since. Well done on being there and looking still.
I see a lot of covered man holes/ drains on side next to concrete blocks. Wonder if those have been checked if foul play was involved
If the camera looks over the valley, then jay should be on it if he did take that route?
i dont know if you understand but the longer version video like this is incredibly helpful to try and piece together the last footsteps and trail he would have taken, i wish i could afford a trip over there and be able to bring my drones.. there is so much area to cover and all the help the family could get im sure is very much appreciated, and you know jay would appreciate it. keep up gods work sir!
So where are all the cars and people ? I thought they said it would be busy up there ?
Great video.
Sure you said “guys” at least 600 times in 46 mins though 😁
I hope these people who speculated his death can now shut up, poor kid, young and fearless probably went to get a nice pic of the sun rise and slipped.
RIP young man
El problema que veo es que Jay pudo caminar bastante desde que se terminó la batería. Yo creo que está mucho más lejos ....una hora, dos y hasta 5 mas lejos ...PD no he visto a nadie en todo el video....ni buscando ni circulando....es muy solitario
Having watched this video and thinking would he really go through all that bush heavily grown areas , he has been drinking all weekend he wouldn’t have had the energy for it , am starting to think foul play , something just don’t seem right ,
Amazing views . Great video. Really puts things into perspective and shows you just how difficult it would be to even attempt to walk that distance . If you went off road it would be so easy to get lost .
Thats wird why has pedro changed his mind ?
Hope ur safe out there
Yes I thought that too weird
Great work Paul. If Jay took the route you walked he was heading to the coast for sure - just looking for a route 'off the hill'. From the end of that path to the coast is a couple of cliks - nasty terrain but temps in the low 20's that day so doable even with no fluids. If possible start at the coast and work back from there. Good luck and keep safe.
Appreciate this video, it helps me understand what Jay was against, I believe he grew disorientated and ill from dehydration and lack of sleep…thank you for caring. ❤❤❤
What are the 3-words, that are the co-ordinates, relevant to Jay?
@@mmcmiddlechild that would be interesting.
they tunnels carry the water pipes all over the mountains, they also lead to the beach
he must have been very scared. So sad.
Again...so many questions. Why would he not stay at the cafe and ask for help? If it were closed just wait till it opened?
Surely Jay would know he can't walk through all that in shorts and turn back into the dirt road
Suggests anyone chasing after him could have caught up with him on the road and then chased down the slopes or paths?
@@dadanum8443I thought his Mum said that it was a hive of activity up by the Airbnb? If so and he was scared , why didn’t he just approach someone ?
Hes a teenage boy he absolutely would of walked threw they thinking He could cut threw also he isn't from there so wouldn't of realised how dangerous it is. And also boys don't see danger I have w teenagers my self no fear
If he'd walked that way past that camera people would have seen him 100%. People were literally looking at the time lapse on that webcam 2 hours after he was reported missing.
Surely if he had walked to the end of that gravel path he wouldn’t have then thought he could get through all that bushy area?? I know he had had a good night the night before and wasn’t at his best but the lads common sense would have kicked in at some point surely?
Paul you are simply an angel. I hope this video shuts a lot of the armchair detectives up now that they can see what you are up against.
Why has pedro changed his mind about you staying at his though?
Why on earth would anyone go on that mission unless you wanted to cover up something - thanks for the tour its had for me to believe that anyone with a brain would do this after a night out
Hope you are good Paul. Really hope something comes up soon. I cant imagine what Jays family & friends are going through. Please keep us all updated over there ❤
What 19 year old after a three day bender really is thinking clearly? that desperation to get back to your friends also not knowing the area and thinking things are alot closer than they are and it's not as far to walk. I truly believe he was already dead by the time the search teams were out there. He could have fallen had a heart attack anything could of happend out there. He needs to be found desperately to bring peace to his family and stop all the crazy theories and absolute horrendous things that are being said about this young lad and his family. This is another case that's really has made me hate the human race there's so little compassion out there from people it's sickening
I liked being able to follow the whole path with you. After that 25 min mark I got a couple of psychic hits. I feel he tried to walk down towards the ocean, believing he can find his way back following along the coast, however, there is no connection to the beach back to los Christianos, it’s all rocks. He may have collapsed from dehydration and heat exhaustion.
