Mel Gibson Surveys Malibu Mansion Fire Damage

Mel Gibson visited the site of his $14.5 million Malibu mansion, which was destroyed in the recent Palisades Fire, thanking firefighters for their efforts during his tour of the damage. While he was filming an episode of Joe Rogan's podcast, the fires ravaged his neighborhood, leaving many homes in ruins. Gibson described his experience as a mix of sadness and a sense of spiritual preparation, as he sees the loss as a form of purification before embarking on his upcoming film, 'The Resurrection of the Christ.' He noted that despite losing valuable possessions, he felt blessed and believes it's part of a larger plan. Amid the devastation, Gibson was relieved to find that his chicken coop survived the flames, with the chickens unharmed. The wildfires have displaced many in the area, resulting in significant destruction across thousands of acres.
