Online conjecture and conspiracy theories have been stoked by a widely shared video that depicts a group of young guys escaping the original location of the enormous Palisades fire in Los Angeles, USA.
On January 7, the fire started close to Temescal Canyon, scorching 24,000 acres and destroying more than 12,000 buildings.
On January 8, a guy called Beni Oren posted a video of six companions at a well-known beautiful overlook in Temescal Canyon to his X profile, which was previously known as Twitter.
The video, which was posted soon after the Pacific Palisades fire started, has received close to 591,000 views. “My friends and I were ambushed by the Palisades fire shortly after.
It started,” Beni captioned the photo. We climbed up to Skull Rock, where we were hanging and could smell burning. We had to hastily flee for our life.
