Mel Gibson has revealed his Malibu home was destroyed in the Los Angeles wildfires while he was in Austin, Texas, calling it 'devastating'

The actor is in good spirits though, joking, "I went home and I said to myself, ‘Well at least I haven’t got any of those pesky plumbing problems anymore.'"

The controversial actor said his property "looked like Dresden" after bombing in World War II due to the fires raging in Southern California.
