Patrick McDermott
It’s possible that Patrick is more famous for his alleged death as well as his relationship with Olivia Newton-John than anything he’d actually done on his own. In 2005, Patrick disappeared from a fishing boat off the coast of Los Angeles. It wasn’t till a week later that he was reported as missing. All 20-plus passengers who were on the boat gave conflicting reports. In 2008, he was declared “most likely drowned”. However, a suggestion came out saying he might have faked his own death in order to cash in on life insurance and move to Mexico.

Slim Wintermute
Slim Wintermute was a famous basketball player who was famous for being part of the first-ever NCAA Tournament championship teams. He played for the Oregon Ducks and went on to have his number retired by the University. He played basketball in the National Basketball League for a while before the NBA came to be. In 1977, he was boating with a friend when he went missing. Foul play was never suspected, but the scenario was strange. The boat set out at 7 am in Lake Union. At 2 pm, the boat was found in neutral, the other passenger asleep on board. He said that Wintermute was on board when he fell asleep. A lot of people believe that Wintermute’s known heart condition led him to have a heart attack and fall overboard. His body was never found, however.
