It's man stuff
A man who was discovered by police who were searching for missing teenager Jay Slater has spoken out and claimed that he ‘didn’t need rescuing’.
“I think there was a lot lost in translation when they saw him and I explained to them I had water, I was wearing layers, I had my rucksack with food and I’m an experienced hiker. He went on to say that you ‘have to treat Tenerife with respect’, as it can be isolated. However, he insisted that he was not lost.
Larkin says that he hikes for solitude, and found it uncomfortable when the rescuers began to walking at a speedier pace than he would have liked. After leaving the festival at Papagayo night club on Sunday, the apprentice bricklayer got in a car with two men he had met to drive to the northwestern mountain village of Masca in the Rural de Teno national park. This was a 40-minute drive away from his accommodation.
