Even if it isn't him, somebody's friends and family will have answers.

RIP Julian. I hope this gives his family at least some closure now that they can bring him home.

Rest in Peace Sir.

Your soul will forever now stay in the mountains you loved so much.

Some men are not destined to die in their beds.

Human remains found in mountains in California have been confirmed to be those of British actor Julian Sands, who went missing on a hike in January.

Walkers found the remains on Saturday, police said, and they have now been formally identified.

Sands, 65, was best known for his roles in the Oscar-winning film A Room With A View and TV dramas 24 and Smallville.

His other credits included 2011's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, in which he appeared opposite Daniel Craig.

Sands disappeared on 13 January during bad weather in the Baldy Bowl area of the San Gabriel Mountains.

Air and ground searches were hampered as California was battered by deadly storms, as well as icy conditions and a threat of avalanches.

I hope he is remembered for the way he lived, and not the way he died, which I do hope was swift.

Such a great actor.

I’m glad he has been found and in a weird way I feel somewhat happy. He died doing something he loved. I hope he didn’t suffer.

Godspeed Julian. May you rest for eternity on a mountaintop feeling free as an eagle.

MOO

Julian Sands spoke of feeling “chilled” by the discovery of human remains when pursuing his love of climbing, in his last UK interview before he died on a solo hike in California.

The 65-year-old actor was a committed climber and said he increasingly ventured out alone. “Pals I used to climb with have stopped going to the mountains,” partly because rock faces had become more unstable with climate change, and partly because of age, he told the Radio Times.

“If you don’t really have the desire, the focus for climbing a route, if you’re not absolutely committed, it becomes much more dangerous.”

He added: “I’ve found spooky things on mountains, when you know you’re in a place where many people have lost their lives, whether it be on the Eiger or in the Andes. You may be confronted with human remains and that can be chilling.”
