On 17 December 1967, Harold Holt, the Prime Minister of Australia, disappeared while swimming in the sea near Portsea, Victoria. An enormous search operation was mounted in and around Cheviot Beach, but his body was never recovered. Holt was presumed to have died, and his memorial service five days later was attended by many world leaders. It is generally agreed that his disappearance was a simple case of an accidental drowning, but a number of conspiracy theories surfaced, most famously the suggestion that he had been collected by a Chinese submarine. www.patreon.com/carouselsnipervictim Links Produced by Shaun Jeffery Tunes by- Architects "Hereafter" Follow us on all your finest social tubes: @CarouselSniperVictim @DeadGlassDesign Facebook, Instagram, Twitter Unwritten Return by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4570-unwritten-return License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Shores of Avalon by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4349-shores-of-avalon License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license I Knew a Guy by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3895-i-knew-a-guy License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Fluidscape by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3767-fluidscape License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Comfortable Mystery by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3531-comfortable-mystery License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Tranquility Base by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4542-tranquility-base License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license sources/ further reading: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-11-01/disappearance-harold-holt-inside-search-operation-australia/12817236 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Harold_Holt https://www.feetonforeignlands.com/2015/08/19/are-australian-beaches-safe/ https://www.sbs.com.au/news/harold-holt-the-australian-prime-minister-who-disappeared
