Los Angeles fire: Mel Gibson visits remains of his home

Mel Gibson (69) visited his property for the first time since the major fire in Los Angeles and got an impression of the destruction on site. All that remains of the actor’s Malibu home, where he lived for 15 years, is rubble and ashes.

Pictures available show Gibson in the ruins. He was able to inspect his property with firefighters while filming an interview with a television station, according to the celebrity portal. In the photos, the action star can be seen in a fire truck and shaking hands with the clean-up workers. Before leaving the property, he took a side table from the rubble as one of the last intact items.

More than 100,000 people have lost their homes in the devastating fires in the Los Angeles area since January 7th. In addition to Mel Gibson, there are numerous other celebrities. However, it is the 69-year-old who is primarily causing controversy with his statements about the origin and extent of the fire.

A few days ago he shared his conspiracy thoughts about the fire. “It seems a little too fitting to me that there isn’t enough water, that the wind conditions are right, and that people are ready to commit arson. Have they been hired to do that or are they acting on their own initiative?” Gibson said . He begins “to think about whether there is an intention or not. What could that be? What do they want? To depopulate the state?” The Hollywood star wanted to look for evidence of this suspicion in the remains of his house and inform the public about it.

In another interview with “NewsNation,” the American made a comparison with the destruction of Germany in World War II: “My home looked like Dresden,” Gibson said in the conversation. In his 14 million euro house, collector’s items such as rare works of art, photos and centuries-old books fell victim to the flames.
