  On November 30, 1948 in South Australia, a man in a suit appeared on the beach.Despite the many efforts of detectives, scientists, and the public, the man could not be identified.

However, in 2022, science finally caught up with the case and the identity was revealed. But even with that information, the case still remains a mystery.You can find Edwin social media as @edwincovHave an idea you want to send? Send me an email or DM!
