British actor Julian Sands — whose stays were discovered last month after going missing within the southern California mountains — spoke of finding stays himself while on climbs during one among his final interviews.
“I’ve found spooky things on mountains, when you recognize you’re in a spot where many individuals have lost their lives, whether it’s on the Eiger or within the Andes,” Sands told Radio Times last yr — months before the actor disappeared on his solo hike.
“Chances are you’ll be confronted with human stays and that might be chilling. It’s not necessarily supernatural, it’s possibly all too natural – what I might call hypernatural,” the “A Room With A View,” actor said.
Sands was reported missing by his wife on Jan. 13 after the 65-year-old actor didn’t return from his solo enterprise up Mount Baldy within the San Gabriel mountain range.
“You’re within the presence of massive nature and large nature is revealing itself in all its power. It will probably take us over a threshold of hypersensitivity right into a realm of natural forces,” Sands told the Magazine, expressing the danger in his nature exploration endeavors.

The San Bernardino County Coroner later confirmed that the stays were a positive ID of the “Arachnophobia” star, ending the extensive seek for the British-born actor.
The Sands’ reason for death continues to be under investigation.
The “Warlock” actor was a committed mountain climber but revealed that lately he and his “pals” had “stopped going to the mountains” as a result of the rock faces becoming more unstable with climate change, and his age playing a think about the physically demanding explorations.
“When you don’t really have the will, the main target for climbing a route when you’re not absolutely committed, it becomes rather more dangerous,” he said through the interview with Radio Times.
Mt. Baldy is taken into account one of the dangerous peaks in California.
Since 2020, six others have died attempting to scale the mountain — with over 100 searches conducted as thrillseekers and climbing veterans flock yearly to the challenge of the ten,000-foot peak, in keeping with the Los Angeles Times.
Following the invention of his stays, his family released an announcement saying the “Leaving Las Vegas” actor would all the time hold a spot of their “hearts with brilliant memories of him as an exquisite father, husband, explorer, lover of the natural world and the humanities, and as an original and collaborative performer.”
