New Zealand man's coincidence
Forty-four years after it was thrown from a ship in the Indian Ocean, a message in a bottle was found in New Zealand near the home of Austrian-born author, Hans Schwarz – the man who had thrown it in the first place. While sailing to Melbourne, Australia in 1956, to attend the Olympic Games, Schwarz had thrown the same bottle into the ocean, with a note for a “dusky Pacific maiden”. Schwarz, born in 1934, wrote the message in English and German. The bottle was found by a man living about 70 km north of Wellington, New Zealand where Schwarz was residing.
