Was only a matter of time, he was never going to be found alive. I can't see how they missed him before tbh.
I wonder if the family give back gofundme or, as I suspect, ask for more to bring his body back, unless that's free, and also pay for a big funeral.

My guess is he tried to outwit people a lot more devious than himself.
His friends hampered the search imo...God knows what they were covering up.
Sad, but it was inevitable it would end like this.

They are saying he fell. Perhaps he was chucked. Though I think the most likely cause of death is probably dehydration.

Probably chucked...2 minutes after his phone was.

Thrown or fell, he had no water. So yes Digs, dehydration and heat will do it.

According to TrueGeordie Jay Slater was a wrong un. I first saw this story when the BBC headlined it everyday saying they were sending a large investigative team out to Tenerife on a <s>jolly</s> I mean to investigate.

He was into drugs there. He also stole a £5000 watch which he admitted to in Tenerife.
He got off recently when he beat up a young teen along with 8 mates, with a machete, hammer and other weapons. Leaving his head spilt open and other serious injuries.
Not a nice boy.

There are a lot of loose ends.
If a £12,000 watch was stolen, stolen from who, and where is it now?
If Jay was told a bus came along the road he was on to lead him back into Los Cristianas, why was he miles away up a bloody mountain, in terrain impossible to negotiate unless one is experienced and fully equipped?
And why, if the police had searched this area weeks ago, was he found in the same place a month after disappearing.

None of this makes sense. He could have got water before going off, then got a cab. Why did have walk up instead of down? Or did he?
Was his body always there? Wouldn't the dogs have smelt him, he was decomposed.
They said his clothes were around him, was he naked?

If he has been there for a month wild animals would have got to him .

'His injuries are consistent with falling'....it will probably be left at that.

His mum wants to see him one last time, I don't think that's a good idea seeing as he's been lying out in the Spanish sun for a month.

If you were on the run from someone, would you take the main road? Nope.

It's not a main road like we have. It's a cross between a dirt track and an A road. I doubt anyone with a brain would be scaling mountains to get away from someone.

Was it a mountain he climbed? I thought the ravine lay just beyond the road

Mr Slater was last seen by a cafe owner, who said the teenager had asked her about bus times before deciding not to wait two hours for a service.
The cafe owner said she saw Mr Slater “walking away fast” out of the village, and his phone was last detected nearby in the Rural de Teno National Park.
At around 8.15am on Monday, he called his friend Lucy Law to tell her he was lost, needed a drink of water and that he had one per cent battery left on his phone.
“He’s ended up out in the middle of nowhere. Jay was obviously thinking he would be able to get home from there,” Ms Law told the Manchester Evening News. “But then in the morning he’s set off walking, using his maps on his phone and ended up in the middle of mountains with nothing around.”
Mr Slater also phoned his friend Brad Hargreaves, who heard him “sliding” over gravel which indicated he had left the main road in the national park.
This is the road he took apparently.
So, the most likely thing is perhaps he saw the sea in the distance and figured he could walk across as the crow flies not figuring that the terrain was a lot rougher than it looks. Coupled to dehydration, and the heat, and probably the drugs in his system, he just made a bad call.
