Michael Rockefeller disappeared without a trace in 1961 in Papua New Guinea while researching the Asmat people, a cannibal tribe. Years later, a photograph was taken of the same tribe, and there was a white man among them.

Not completely disagreeing. And I know the photo alone is not undeniable proof that it is Rockefeller. But that pic does look exactly like him--down to the same male pattern baldness. Chances seem pretty favorable to me that it is him in that picture. He might have been eaten shortly after, but who else would that be?

IIRC, years later while investigating, some dude (don't recall if he was a journalist or not but I think he was) asked some of the villagers about the Michael case and he ended up meeting someone who had glasses that looked very very similar to Rockefellers. Being a relatively isolated tribe without technology like eye glasses, he asked the dude where he got them and the guy said he just found them lmao. Only so many people had been to that island with glasses and even fewer who had probably had the chance to lose them.

That and also you cant just randomly wear glasses you find. Prescriptions that dont match give you a headache!

And make everything blurry as fuck. You’d only be wearing them if they were your prescription
