Andrew Helps was a police constable who risked his own safety by searching for Prime Minister Harold Holt in a small boat. While Holt had spent considerable time swimming and spear fishing in the area, like many people, Helps was surprised that anyone would have considered swimming in such a rough sea. This decision by Holt led to nagging doubts about what really happened. Helps goes on to make the remarkable suggestion that perhaps Holt was never there at all.
This clip is from the documentary, The Harold Holt Mystery (1985).
