Even though it might seem impossible, some people really do vanish into thin air.

Lars Mittank
On June 30, 2014, 28-year-old German man Lars Mittank was vacationing at a seaside resort with his friends. A few days later, on July 6, Mittank got into a fight with four other men over football. Mittank ruptured his eardrum in the fight. As a result, his doctor encouraged him not to fly home with the rest of his group. Mittank checked into a cheap Bulgarian hotel alone. He had been prescribed an antibiotic, Cefuroxime, at the hospital.
