Sometimes I randomly remember the fact that one of our prime ministers straight up went missing in the ocean no body found, so we named a pool after him

I'm inserting a silly joke in my lecture for this week.

#harold holt #the joke is that he literally disappeared mysteriously (likely drowned) the year after his ascent

[weirdly-specific-but-ok]

Is the drowning prime minister abt ya boi Harold Holt? I’ve only heard bits and pieces of the story

Oh yes it is! I was partial to the mermaid theory, but some Australians have given me a theory involving Chinese rescue boats and I'm not sure whether they were joking.

It's Australia. You cannot be sure. They have a mermaid beach and a life insurance website where the pitch was 'keep your insurance updated in case you fall out of bed or bump into people' because in one year, four deaths in Australia were caused by bumping into people, and around 58 deaths by falling out of bed.

Look, Tony, what are the odds of a prime minister being drowned or taken by a shark?

— Australian Prime Minister Harold Holt to his press secretary Tony Eggleton. Holt later disappeared while swimming at Cheviot Beach; his body was never found.

Quoted in a biography by Tom Frame, 'The Life and Death of Harold Holt'.

I always wondered what it would be like to live through a major historical event

Now we're here and I'm writing Destiel fanfiction, watching today's episode of Rings of Power and making up theories about the disappearance of Harold Holt

I just don’t think we talk enough as a society about the fact that 17th Prime Minister Of Australia Harold Holt went missing — presumed drowned — and then they named a swimming pool after him

#we need to talk about this more #Harold holt #17th Australian Prime Minister Harold Holt #Harold holt memorial swimming centre #Australia #australian history #conspiracy theories #true crime #mystery disappearance #disappearance #I’m not even Australian and this guy lives rent free in my mind #I think we need to make him an overnight meme like that one time everyone suddenly started Tarrare-posting

Its been 56 years since Harold Holt disappeared.

I like to think he still pops up occasionally when nobody is looking.

Like a cryptid.

This pool was named after the former Australian Prime minister, Harold Holt, who is notorious for going missing (probably drowning) while swimming.

I'm watching 'Australia in Colour' on History and they've just mentioned Harold Holt and showed this picture.

Surely, they could have found a picture of him away from the ocean.

Do you guys think it’s safe for Harold Holt to come out of hiding now or should he wait a few years to make sure she’s not coming back?

i just wanted to look up harold holt to check if that was the misplaced pm i was thinking of and im losing it over the phrasing of this question

like he didnt go missing, he chose this, he went to where he belonged. we set him free at the beach and when he hesitated we shouted for him to get lost until he sorrowfully joined his own kind and then we named a pool after him
