LOST IN TASMANIA | Episode 2.. (The Case of Nicola Sallese)

In this heart-wrenching 2 part docuseries, we delve into the depth of Tasmania's wilderness in search of Nicola Sallese, a man who vanished from his home in Tasmania on November 17, 2008 - a sorrowful anniversary eight years after his wife's passing due to cancer. The story you are about to witness is one of a father's love, a son's unyielding hope, and an enduring search to bring Nicola home by Dan from Downunder Search and Recovery along with his good friend William McIntosh.

Nicola's disappearance, at the age of 69, sparked a mystery that has gone unsolved for the past 14 years. Today, at 83, his whereabouts remain unknown.
His son, undeterred by the passing years, is a part of this journey, seeking closure and the chance to put his father to rest. The search has seen the family and local community come together, searching roads, hiring helicopters, and even utilizing drones to check rivers and roads across the state.
Nicola Sallese, originally from Vinegar Hill, was an adoring father and a loving husband who moved to Australia in the early '60s. He was a dedicated employee at the hydro and a loving caretaker for his wife when she fell ill. But as his early onset dementia began to show, Nicola's life was set for change. This is the story of his life, the love he shared, and the mystery of his disappearance.
Join us as we follow the advice given about his potential actions and the reality of his condition. We search through mountains and across valleys to clear ponds and bodies of water. Alongside the emotional struggle is the physical strain of spending weeks in the wilderness. Despite the emotional toll, the team remains committed to finding Nicola.
Our journey has taken us from the local town to areas as remote as Cethana Lake. The explorations have been exhaustive, going through the mountainous regions, often in challenging conditions. We've explored every possibility, even theorizing about his Sunday drives and potential picnic spots.
In this episode, we return to Southport, following a lead from a tourist who reported seeing an elderly Italian man, matching Nicola's description, driving a silver Camry. With his early onset dementia, could Nicola have mixed up his days and been trying to reach his son's house for a birthday party? Could a panic at the Southport boat ramp have led to a tragic accident?
Together with Downunder Search and Recovery and Bill McIntosh, we're leaving no stone unturned in the quest to find Nicola Sallese. This is a journey of hope, endurance, and determination. Join us as we bring you along in this search for Nicola. Stay tuned for an emotional ride through the wilderness of Tasmania.

[@nascarwildcatfan7577]

Absolutely love this series of helping people in Australia, keep on going!

[@doggpow69]

My wife absolutely loves you guys. Your doing a good thing for families. Your the best!!!!!!!.

[@TheGmodGirl]

As someone who lives in Tasmania I personally don't think you'll find him in water. I'm a hunter so I've been around in the thickest bush and have found cars just sitting out in the most random places you wouldn't expect. Also the fact that he was driving his car around the neighbour's paddock could've meant that he was testing to see how far his car could go and what it could do off road before getting stuck. Thanks to this video I'm going to take note of every car I find in the bush from now on. I really hope you do end up finding him.

[@lisasaxon7828]

Get together n help on land and water…then they’ll have the best of both worlds to find lost loved ones.

[@lisasaxon7828]

Dan and crew…My dad apparently walked out of the family home in 1972 when I was only 5. No one knew why, what happened more where he went, he simply didn’t come home. Articles in the news paper over days n weeks asking if any one had seen him and that he may have been suffering depression never came up with any substantial info. Many searches by officials and helpful public were also done. Approx 8 weeks later two land surveyors were in the outer sth east suburbs of Perth in an area called Jarradale, roughly 60 klm away. It was semi bushland that way and they would have been land surveying for new suburbs to be opened up. Sadly they came across the remains of a body which were identified to be that of my dads by his initialed wallet, black rimmed spectacles, his watch and possibly remains of clothing. The body was too decomposed to ID and DNA wasn’t used back then. I so wished they had of kept some of his remains to test now tho, iv always wondered was that really dad who they found. I and my family still have no idea to what occurred and why dad just walked off n ended up that far from home, il never know and that kills me even still, I’m 57 now and it’s been 52 years but I wonder n wonder why or was it because of me some how…silly I know😔 Although he was not found in water ways I want to Thankyou for all the work n searching you and fellow divers, ground crew, camera dudes etc do to help find lost loved ones. I get quite emotional watching as it makes me think of dad..I have no memory of his being I was only 5. I just wished I could have had him longer to love and remember forever 🩵🙏🏻😔😢

[@Minkfang]

I know there is newer drone technology that can scan the bush for vehicles. I hope that’s the next step the family can take

[@michalja2926]

You do a good job. Grettings from Polen

[@georgia8678]

I think the hardest thing about missing cold cases in Tasmania, not even just cold cases, missing people in general, is that about half of the entire state is forest/bush (either national park of plantation forestry). Just our small village alone we are surrounded by private forestry or national park land. I honestly think its a miracle any missing person is found in TAS, thinking of Shyanne-Lee Tatnell found recently in the bush and the sheer luck they were actually able to find her body being where it was, and they had evidence thats where she was. And Celine Cremer, still hasn't been found and its suspected she went missing near bush walking track too but no trace of her. The Australian bush and forests are so so dense, you walk less than a minute into the bush off the road and you cannot see the road anymore, you cant see what's in front of you or behind you, just a hell of a lot of trees and shrubs. Someone who accidentally went into the bush or slipped off a track, wondered further than they thought, or just inexperienced are going to get lost very quickly. Ive seen cars go off the Sideling and other similar passes and you cant see them, its like the forest has swallowed them and their cars whole, its so dense and wild that it doesnt even look like a whole entire car has crashed through it... And then theres the sink holes. Tasmania has an insane amount of sink holes, you lose control of your car off the road and end up in a sink hole and you'll never be seen again. How many people have been lost to sink holes? probably a lot more than we think!

[@dequitarogers5490]

Thank you for amazing work

[@seanh4841]

I can understand how people take their lives when the light of their lives is extinguished

[@MPWEST83]

I love these cases in Australia. That'd be cool if one started in England, Canada, Ireland, and other places in the world. You KNOW there's unsolved cold cases all over the world just begging to be solved...

[@dawnweston9380]

Aok😊

[@craigolson6311]

New Zealand. Too would be interesting

[@susiesantino5625]

Yes many countries would be lovely!

[@wesleyshoup3936]

Nice search guys I remember when Dan and Jason pulled those 2 cars out of the water when searching for Nikola

[@colleenvile8826]

Keep doing what you guys are doing, bring our Angels Home for their Families ❤Thank you

[@mischiefmile3330]

I hope this family finds closure😢I’m sure Mom and Dad are together again.

[@mischiefmile3330]

They had a secret place. They use to go there

[@TheKatehall]

I love to see you here Dan.❤

[@robinm6662]

God Bless and Thank you for your dedication and passion to bring loved ones home!❤️

[@Headloser]

I would recommend that the searchers talk to local people whom lived in that particular area. They may know hidden dangers or places he could accidentally drove off and you wouldn't even know it.

[@kimfitzgeraldrockfam8973]

I really hope that these cases are solved if not today hopefully soon we all thank Dan and Bill for the great job there doing

[@staceycordero5991]

At 22 minutes the clouds spell love u 😢

[@melly1322]

As a Tasmanian, thank you for coming over and helping in the search ❤❤

[@Da_messiGuy]

I’m a Tasmanian exactly why I’m here

[@shielagurulemartinez]

❤ so happy knowing there's people like you guy's that actually care❤ God has Blessed you fur sure to help families bring home their loved ones ❤thank you for what you do❤

[@marycunningham-ym2sx]

Never give up guys I like watching these video ❤❤

[@Cent4man]

We need to have conversations with our elderly parents. We need to understand when they are already at the end of their lives and when the spouse they lived has already passed. We need to let them know that these feelings are normal and that we understand. We may not can prevent a suicide but, we can prevent the person feeling like they had to hide their suicides.

[@lisasaxon7828]

Yes…bless u hun x

[@mmw331]

the podcast Truth and Justice with Bob Ruff is telling stories about current missing persons. I thought maybe you would be able to help some of these families. I'm just putting it out there. Thank you for everything you do.

[@Toni-rp3hs]

Hi No seatbelt passenger just saying stay safe. love your enthusiasm Dan & Bill though. RIP Nicola 🙏 your with your wife now 😅

[@elenadearth6950]

Could he have gone back to his childhood home? Great job guys

[@LittleSweed]

One thing that blows me away is the fact you let ppl with dementia keep driving doesnt you understand that its really dangerous for both them self and others?

[@dawnlindgron5570]

How heartbreaking for the family of all those years.. Thank you for trying

[@Motorsportqueen]

Dan thank you for doing your little bit for the Australian Community. Bill thank you for helping looking for Nicola. I hope that every family get an answer for their missing loved ones.

[@Kruppie2024]

Seems like a mountainous terrain, have the hills and sides of the mountains been checked, via drone or airplane ?

[@seanh4841]

Stand in the middle of Northern Territory and you'll realize you're alone

[@blindkimberly1360]

Y’all have some awesome and wild areas to search! Absolutely stunning views. I’m so thankful y’all never give up. Stay safe. Keep posting videos cuz we love them! 🫶🏼

[@Headloser]

He shouldn't be ashamed when forced to move to other cases. By eliminating ponds, rivers that they have search, they help future search for this gentleman.

[@madmoo5599]

Nice

[@Headloser]

Is there any cliffs on the route they think Nicola went on??? I would get a drone to have a look down there.

[@sheilad6237]

Did I hear you say it was on her anniversary? She was on his mind, with his condition he could slip into earlier years… where was she from when he met her?, where did they meet?, so many possibilities… sad 😢 hope his sons find him!

[@doggpow69]

You guys are the best. I watch yall all the time

[@gachadinolol2389]

As someone that lives in tasmania this just breaking my hearts💔 I hope his family is healing, I can under stand all they wanted to do was find him and see him again or atleast put him to rest

[@dor4376]

You are doing amazing job! You're so invested in it and spend so much time on searching💜

[@SmallWonda]

Gosh you didn't leave many stones or ponds um-explored - such a shame Nicola wasn't found, but the journey was certainly beautiful. Thing with Tassie, there's so many wild places & shonky roads you could drive off of & no one would ever know. I find it very hard to imagine he would have ended up in Southport by mistake - and there are a zillion places he could have driven off the road... But, yes, People, keep your eyes open! There have been a few cases this year where people have gone off the road & it's been days before they were found - in UK, even in urban areas, so always worth keeping your wits about you. Thanks for all you guys do, & we hope Nicola will be found soon.

[@user-bh3bz3hv4g]

You need to get flex shot caulking that fix your boat leaks.

[@julieseymour5]

Love this show i have been watching Jared and the guys and came across your episode down under dan its a wonderful job you all do LETS BRING THEM ALL HOME ❤

[@susiesantino5625]

It is terrible to lose a parent by death, but not evening being able to say bye or put them to rest properly is possibly as hard... And I feel for these two sons But one way I'm glad with this channel besides the obvious, is since it is Down in Australia I get to see views of there and Tasmania.

[@anthonygareau5604]

Awp thanks again , Australia ❤

[@jroze04]

Omg please come to New Zealand toooo, we have so many missing 🥺

[@nodnarb101]

Maybe he doesn’t want to be found. Like most of the people you look for. I guess sometimes there isn’t a way to know if it was an accident or on purpose.

[@caroldurand7722]

Please hand the gentleman a life jacket.

[@nitrothunder9937]

🫡🇦🇺🦘

[@biancaalvarado7113]

🌎🙏🏽🌊 let's find him bring him home

[@shannonswift589]

I feel like I'm in a reality. SHOW

[@SandyKNOWS]

Are you releasing the 2 locked videos that were for members only from a week ago? Been waiting for this content thanks Jared!

[@jenniferw5095]

My husband and I sleep at rest areas and it is faster getting across the US, rather than stopping at a hotel, checking in, getting settled, etc. We download some movies when we have access to wifi, then watch TV before bed, walk the dogs, then go to sleep.

[@traceygrimm4736]

Aussie Aussie Aussie 🇦🇺🙏👌💚💛

[@ceciliamoore2806]

You guys are so amazing, if you see this comment could you look into the Maura Murray disappearance this videos made me wonder if she could have ended up in water

[@susanharris3040]

That's a hill. Come ta Colorado n see mountains

[@lisakedward1162]

The private property pond you needed permission for in last episode for sure I think you need to clear 😢

[@judysummers4178]

Forestry tracks, hoping forestry companies are keeping a lookout for a car when they are harvesting their trees.

[@deborahdavisreyes8589]

A relative of mine was just killed in his car on the way to a repair shop. The car caught fire …😢 he couldn’t escape it.

[@janetjedrzejczyk1903]

❤

[@Chloescaninesdogsanctuary]

I'm going to watch this program no matter where they base the searches but im just wondering why the influx of aussie cases instead of usa?

[@lisasaxon7828]

It’s simply a variation to the regular and they’re teaming up helping Dan, as they often do with others.

[@anthonygareau5604]

No idy wants to be more smart then police. We just want to bring them home if possible in hopes to bring closure to the families which in return will allow police to close case and move on to office cases and duties that also need time.❤

[@Sierraman59]

it's more likely to be in the forest than underwater when I see Tasmania.

[@suzetteperkins1089]

It’s not ‘the woods’ it’s the bush and it’s not a ‘ one way road’ it’s a bush track,lol

[@NoirMat]

How many people stop his car when he sees other people in trouble on the side of the road... five minutes of your time can save the day of someone else (sorry for my English, I'm french😅)

[@anthonygareau5604]

If he is here he didn't want to be found

[@anthonygareau5604]

I visited my mom in Houston Texas and it seems a lot like Australia in a way everything is around the corner or down the street.ten miles around the corner and Five miles down the street. Nothing close ever.lol😊

[@bwhelan1705]

Please put on life jackets

[@Leonardo-uf8hx]

Shows not the same without Jared, I miss that guy, I wonder how the media would be if it was double standards for it, roles switched. Jared made this show amazing

[@lisasaxon7828]

Jared’s still doin episodes

[@turidhelenkjnvik5491]

I think this Familywas imigrants and he meet his wife ther

[@buzzybeemee4254]

Why not just use a psychic to find all these people? Cheaper and faster

[@Kenneth_Brinkley]

Have fun finding him because u never will 😂

[@lisasaxon7828]

What on earth do you find funny? Hope your not ‘actually’ laughing at this situation. Trust me, you would not like having one of your parents or family go missing to never return, it plays on your mind forever.

[@brittanybitxh2761]

Jared i Don't know how to message you. i just watched this crime story. This family has been missing for decades with no trace. I don't believe the family vehicle was ever found. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5-re56BbaiJotE Robby Ann Floyd Last seen 12/1/96 Fayetteville North Carolina 3 of her 4 children disappeared with her and the family van none of them have ever been heard from since 1996.
