18 Celebrities That Vanished Without a Trace or Explanation

Harold Holt

Harold Holt had been serving as Australia’s 17th Prime Minister when he vanished on an otherwise normal December day. Holt had been visiting the Cheviot Beach located in Victoria where he had fostered a love for swimming. The weather was purportedly bad with waves higher than most surfers were willing to handle.

Holt was never found and the general consensus is that he drowned while swimming, or had an incursion with some aquatic life. Imagine if JFK had simply vanished at sea and you’ll get why this was such a big deal at the time.
