In a surprising turn of events, a search and rescue mission in the Angeles National Forest took an unexpected twist when the team stumbled upon comedian and former late-night host Jay Leno. The team was initially looking for a missing hiker, Mr. Yang, a 78-year-old experienced hiker who was separated from his group during a hike to the summit of Mt. Waterman.

Mr. Yang was reported missing around 3 p.m. on Saturday, August 17.
