The Disappearance of Lars Mittank

At the end of June 2014, Lars and 5 of his friends took a lads holiday to Bulgaria. This was Lars' first holiday outside of this home country, Germany, and unlike his usual trips to go fishing or diving.

The week flew by filled with swimming, laughter, drinks and, with the World Cup being on - plenty of football.

On the 3rd July 2014, Lars and his friends went to watch the Argentina V Netherlands match in a local bar, when they ran into an altercation with another group of lads over football. Following this fall out, Lars' friends headed to McDonalds, but Lars told them he was going to walk back to the hotel - when his friends returned - Lars wasn't there.

The next morning, Lars reappeared and told his friends he had been beaten up by a group of 4 men the bar had hired, although not looking like he had been beaten up, Lars did complain of ear pain and went to see a local doctor who diagnosed a burst eardrum. The doctor told Lars he would not be able to fly home on the 7th July as planned, but referred him to see another doctor in nearby city, Varna.

Lars saw this other doctor, who prescribed him some antibiotics.

Lars friends flew home as planned, despite offering to stay with Lars, the following day, Lars mum had paid for him to fly back to Hamburg but asked that he see the airport doctor prior to the flight to ensure he would be ok to fly.

Lars went to see the doctor, but as the consultation finished, he fled the office, fled the airport and ran into some nearby woodland - he has not been seen since.

Other strange events happened in the lead up to him fleeing - tune in now to find out what and to hear the theories around what happened to Lars Mittank.
