POLICE on Tenerife yesterday appealed for volunteers to join a search for Jay Slater today, as his best pal told of their final chat before the teenager vanished.
Brad Hargreaves, 19, revealed he saw the apprentice bricklayer slipping on some rocks as they held a video call on Monday June 17.
But despite the fact Jay has been missing almost a fortnight, his friend has not given up hope he is still alive.
And a local ecology expert said the area in which the Brit went missing has plenty of aqueducts and a waterfall where he could get water.
Brad told how Jay, 19 - who he was on holiday with - had earlier been at a club in Playa de Las Americas and phoned him the next morning.
He said: "He's rang me walking down the mountain and he just says he's walking home.
"He was on the phone walking down a road and he'd gone over a little bit. Not a big drop, but a tiny little drop and he was going down.
LAUGHING
"I knew he went off the road. because I could hear like when you walk on gravel, stones.
"At the time I didn't think anything of it. I just thought he was going to get a bus home or a taxi home because that's what he says he is going to do.
