Tenerife police finally can closed Jay Slater case.

Jay Slater's family will use £53,770 GoFundMe to cover Jay body repatriation to UK and funeral costs.

Felt bad for Jay best mate Brad Hargreaves, he is hot.

When the bot starts catching feelings ^

He always posts with that weird broken English. I don’t think he’s a bot but I don’t understand the posting style at all.

At least the family have a body to bury now. Hopefully the right one.

Surely the cost of repatriation will be covered by the travel insurance?

Do young people buy travel insurance?

I didn't when I was young, still don't but I never went on holiday to take risks.... Fine, venturing around Brazil wasn't the safest thing to do, but most people thought I was a local until I spoke.

Sad way to go, his mum encouraged him to go on holiday, she must be distraught.

I think many people are so far removed from nature they don't have any understanding of what can be dangerous.

I mean you see it over here with people dying or being rescued from mountains that they've trekked up in sandals and shorts.

Google maps routing should be sufficient tell him it is a stupid idea.

At least the person who got a machete to his head that went down to the bone can get some closure now.

It's odd to think that if Jay hadn't been given a slap on the wrist for violently attacking someone with a machete that he'd probably still be alive.

I believe I read a post from that machete victim that was quite supportive of the family and finding Jay alive and well. Which would indicate he probably had a much better character than the deceased Mr Slater.

He wasn't the main perpetrator. The guy who got attacked actually said to cut all the crap on tik Tok, stop mentioning his name and show some respect and help find Jay slater.

Not saying he wasn't a douche mind.

He was probably forced to say that at machete point.

Got drunk, possible drugs, got into an accident, died. Happens all the time, this story was just a bit more exotic and so made the news.

Have you seen the video of the area? More like god drunk, possible drugs, decided to go on a quite complexity level 9 hike through a mountainous area lol.

Your typical young person ‘I know what I’m doing, I can wing it and find my own way home’

Hope the lad didn’t suffer too much and it was a quick death at least.

I’m sure the ‘he crossed the wrong people and ended in the volcano’ crowd and their ilk are suitably embarrassed. Though I highly doubt it.

You call it complexity level 9, he probably didn't see it as a complexity level 9 and instead saw it as just a bumpy route home
