TIL Australia lost a prime minister in 1967. His body was never recovered, but he was presumed to have drowned. He is commemorated by the Harold Holt Memorial Swimming Centre in Australia, and by the United States Navy ship, the USS Harold E. Holt

in reply to Today I learned

so a PM who supposedly died by drouning has both a swimming pool and an oceangoing vessel in memoriam?
If I got killed by a wild animal, the last place I'd want my rememberance would be at a safari park.
