Natalie Wood

Entertainment, Mysteries 7 Minutes

Today is the anniversary of Natalie Wood’s terrible death.  Was it an accident or something else?  We may never know. This article from All That’s Interesting explores the story in greater detail.

From All That’s Interesting:

Natalie Wood died off the coast of California’s Catalina Island on November 29, 1981 — but some say her drowning may not have been an accident.

Before Natalie Wood’s death brought her life to a tragic end, she was an Academy Award-nominated actress who was in some of the most famous films of all time. She co-starred in Miracle on 34th Street when she was only eight years old. When she was a teenager, she earned her first Oscar nomination, for 1955’s Rebel Without A Cause. Natalie Wood was so talented and widely beloved that she was nominated for three Oscars before she turned 25. And her larger-than-life presence on camera was only matched by her glamorous offscreen life.

While the San Francisco-born star took Hollywood by storm, working with legendary directors such as John Ford and Elia Kazan, her romantic conquests included the likes of Elvis Presley before she tied the knot with actor Robert Wagner in 1957. Indeed, for decades before Natalie Wood’s death, she lived the American Dream, but one that would tragically devolve into a Hollywood nightmare. It all came crashing down during a fateful yacht trip around California’s Catalina Island in November 1981.

On November 28, 1981, Wood set off aboard her yacht Splendour with Wagner, co-star Christopher Walken, and boat captain Dennis Davern. But in the early morning hours of November 29, Natalie Wood disappeared from the boat, only to be found dead in the water due to drowning at age 43 the next morning.

The discovery of her body only yielded more questions than answers. Though Natalie Wood’s death was initially classified as an accident and “probable drowning in the ocean,” Wood’s death certificate would later be updated to “drowning and other undetermined factors.” And her widowed husband has since been officially labeled a person of interest. What really happened aboard the Splendour that night in 1981 remains a mystery. However, to this day, some suspect foul play in the death of Natalie Wood. This is the haunting story of how Natalie Wood died and what the true cause may have been.

A Young Natalie Wood’s Meteoric Rise In Hollywood

Natalie Wood was born Natalia Nikolaevna Zakharenko on July 20, 1938, in San Francisco, California to an alcoholic father and stage mother. Studio executives changed the young starlet’s name shortly after she started acting. Her mother Maria was highly eager to make Wood the breadwinner and regularly pushed her to audition for roles despite her young age.

Maria’s encounter with a fortune teller when she herself was a child yielded an ominous premonition. The gypsy said her second child “would be a great beauty” and famous, but that she should “beware of dark water.” Wood quickly grew into a professional, memorizing not only her lines but also everyone else’s. Dubbed “One Take Natalie,” she was nominated for an Oscar for her role in Rebel Without a Cause when she was just a teen.

But behind the scenes, her love life was rocky. Wood had affairs with both the director, Nicholas Ray, and co-star Dennis Hopper. She also dated stars like Elvis Presley before she met Robert Wagner at age 18. The two married in 1957 but divorced five years later. They found their way back to each other in 1972, remarried, and had a daughter.

Though Wood’s career began to wane, she did act opposite Oscar winner Christopher Walken in her last picture, Brainstorm. The two became fast friends — with some suspicion that they were dating. “It wasn’t like they were lovey-dovey on the set or anything like that, but they just had a current about them, an electricity,” said the film’s first assistant director, David McGiffert.

It was Thanksgiving weekend of 1981 when their alleged relationship became a problem. Wood and Wagner invited Walken to join their sailing trip around Catalina Island — and that’s when everything went wrong. The scene was set for the tragic death of Natalie Wood.

The Story Behind The Death Of Natalie Wood

What happened on the evening of November 28, 1981, the night Natalie Wood died, is unclear. What is clear is that authorities recovered Wood’s body the following morning, floating a mile away from the Splendour. A small dinghy was found beached nearby.

The investigator’s report chronicled the events as follows: Wood went to bed first. Wagner, having stayed up chatting with Walken, later went to join her, but noticed that both she and the dinghy were gone. Wood’s body was found around 8 a.m. the next morning in a flannel nightgown, down jacket, and socks. The chief medical examiner in the L.A. County Coroner’s Office announced that Natalie Wood’s death was an “accidental drowning” on November 30.

The autopsy showed Natalie Wood had multiple bruises on her arms and an abrasion on her left cheek. The coroner explained Wood’s bruises as “superficial” and “probably sustained at the time of drowning.” But in 2011, Captain Dennis Davern admitted that he left out key details about the night Natalie Wood died. And as the years went on, Wood’s loved ones only had more questions.

How Did Natalie Wood Die? Inside The Haunting Evidence

Davern said the weekend of Natalie Wood’s death was filled with arguments — and that the main issue was the glaring flirtation between Walken and Wood. “The argument started the day before,” said Davern. “The tension was going through the whole weekend. Robert Wagner was jealous of Christopher Walken.”

Davern said Wood and Walken spent hours at a Catalina Island bar before Wagner showed up, furious. All four then went to dinner at Doug’s Harbor Reef Restaurant, where they shared champagne, two bottles of wine, and cocktails. Employees couldn’t recall whether it was Wagner or Walken, but one of them threw a glass at the wall at some point. At around 10 p.m., they used their dinghy to get back to the Splendour.

Accounts of the night of Natalie Wood’s death have changed over the years. Walken did admit to investigators that he and Wagner had a “small beef,” but that it regarded the couple’s prolonged film shoot-related absences from their child.

Though reports initially stated that the fight died down, Davern claimed otherwise in 2011. He said everyone continued drinking when back on board and that Wagner was enraged. He allegedly broke a wine bottle over a table and screamed at Walken, “Are you trying to f–k my wife?” Davern remembered Walken retreating to his cabin at this point, “and that was the last I saw of him.” Wagner and Wood returned to their room, too, when a shouting match ensued. Most ominously, Davern said he later heard the fight continue on deck — before “everything went silent.” When Davern checked on them, he saw only Wagner, who said, “Natalie is missing.”

Robert Wagner’s Suspicious Behavior After His Wife’s Death

For many to this day, it’s Robert Wagner’s behavior just after Natalie Wood’s death that is strangest and perhaps most suspicious. At first, Wagner told Davern to go look for her, and then said “the dinghy is missing too.” The captain knew Natalie was “deathly afraid of water,” and doubted she’d taken the dinghy out alone. But then Davern said that Wagner didn’t want to turn the boat’s floodlights on nor call for help — because he didn’t want to draw any attention to the situation.

Key witness Marilyn Wayne, who was in a boat 80 feet away that night, told Sheriff’s investigators she and her boyfriend heard a woman screaming around 11 p.m. “Somebody please help me, I’m drowning,” the cries implored, until 11:30 p.m.

Their call to the harbormaster went unanswered, and with a party on another boat nearby, the pair concluded it may have been a joke. As for Wagner’s hesitance to call anyone, he did eventually did — at 1:30 a.m.

This, among other things, left Wood’s sibling Lana confused. “She would have never left the boat like that, undressed, in just a nightgown,” she said. But that’s exactly how her body was found, mere hours later. With that, Natalie Wood was dead at age 43. The investigation into Natalie Wood’s death continued throughout the decades, however, with new details, questions, and suspicions arising as recently as 2018.

Changing Stories About Natalie Wood’s Cause Of Death

The case was reopened in November 2011 after Davern admitted he lied during the initial investigation and alleged that Wagner was “responsible” for Natalie Wood’s death. Since the bombshell report, Wagner has refused to talk to authorities. However, Walken has cooperated fully with investigators. According to the BBC, Wood’s death certificate was later amended from accidental drowning to “drowning and undetermined factors.”

In 2018, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Sheriff confirmed that Natalie Wood’s case was now undeniably a “suspicious” death. And Robert Wagner was officially named a person of interest.  “As we’ve investigated the case over the last six years, I think he’s more of a person of interest now,” said L.A. County Sheriffs Department Lieutenant John Corina. “I mean, we know now that he was the last person to be with Natalie before she disappeared.”

“I haven’t seen him tell the details that match… all the other witnesses in this case,” he added. “I think he’s constantly… he’s changed the — his story a little bit… and his version of events just don’t add up.” Investigators digging into Natalie Wood’s death made multiple attempts to speak with him, to no avail. “We would love to talk to Robert Wagner,” said Corina. “He’s refused to talk to us… We can never force him to talk to us. He has rights and he can not talk to us if he doesn’t want to.”

What Really Happened The Night Natalie Wood Died?

Walken hasn’t publicly spoken much on the events of the night that Natalie Wood died, but he did appear to believe that it was an unfortunate accident. “Anybody there saw the logistics — of the boat, the night, where we were, that it was raining — and would know exactly what happened,” said Walken in a 1997 interview. “You hear about things happening to people — they slip in the bathtub, fall down the stairs, step off the curb in London because they think that the cars come the other way — and they die.”

Meanwhile, Corina maintains that Natalie Wood’s death was likely no accident. He said, “She got in the water somehow, and I don’t think she got in the water by herself.” In the end, Robert Wagner’s refusal to cooperate is legal and may simply stem from a desire not to revisit the tragedy. Natalie Wood’s death may have been the result of foul play, but the truth is, we may never know for sure.

    1. Yuck! As far as I can tell, we didn’t get any more overnight but will be getting several inches throughout the day. Temp is 28 but not windy at the moment, thankfully. No sign of Wheezer since the snow started. Technically, it might still be considered fall but THIS is definitely winter!!! Drive carefully!

      As for Natalie Wood, I think she was drunk, pissed off and wanted to leave the boat so she untied the dingy and it got away from her, leading to her falling in the water. Accident, IMO! I don’t trust anyone who comes back that many years later (the boat Captain) with a different story = attention seeking, is my guess.

      1. I have lingering doubts. Only because of the arguing and drinking that went on before hand. he could have pushed her–and she fell overboard. if he was jealous and drinking I could see that happen.
        but i agree on the captain. why come forward now? maybe to clear HIS conscious? dunno.

    ‌
    Muslim Developers are creating communities and then they create a monthly fee for all the homes, “75% of the service fee you’re paying goes to the masjid — so your tax goes to the Mosque”
    ‌
    They say all potential buyers who see that fee aren’t okay with it, they don’t won’t want their money going to the mosque so no one but Muslims will buy the homes
    ‌
    This is fraud.

    So this is how they do it, this is how Muslims create exclusive Muslim only communities in America

    Hall of Shame:

    The H-1B Kickback Machine

    The truth is finally out. This was never about “skills” or “labor shortages.” It is a national white-collar racketeering system disguised as immigration policy.

    • Fake jobs and fake demand.

    Hundreds of Indian outsourcing firms filed tens of thousands of H-1Bs this year for positions that do not exist. Multiple investigations show companies filing in bulk to “reserve” visas, then scrambling to invent projects later. Some never place the worker at all.

    • Benching scams now confirmed. Whistleblowers have shown that workers still pay to stay “on the bench.” Some pay cash, some pay through offshore relatives, some have to sign fake “mandatory training contracts” to justify the deduction.

    This is criminal in U.S. law, but enforcement is nearly zero.

    • Proxy interview factories. The DHS Inspector General flagged the explosion of proxy interview rings.

    American hiring managers think they are talking to the candidate, but they are talking to someone halfway across the world. After the visa is secured, the unqualified worker steps in.

    That is fraud by any definition.

    • Multi vendor stacking. One recent corporate review found six layers of vendors between the client and the actual H-1B worker.

    Each layer took a cut. The client paid $180 an hour.
    The worker received $32.
    The rest vanished into “marketing fees,” “admin costs,” and offshore accounts.

    • IRS and DOJ are quietly circling.

    Several body shops have been caught routing money through educational nonprofits, “temple donations,” and small shell companies that appear to launder kickbacks.

    A few cases are sealed, meaning more are coming.

    • Visa mills and college fraud are now feeding the pipeline.

    With H-1B caps tightening, body shops are buying seats at low-ranked universities to convert foreign students into OPT and later H-1B workers.

    These students are slotted into “pre arranged jobs” that do not exist, but keep the chain moving.

    • The lobbying machine is still the engine.

    Millions flow into K Street to protect the scam.

    Lobbyists pressure Congress to expand headcount, slow enforcement, and push federal contracts through vendor chains dominated by the same firms tied to kickbacks and visa fraud.

    • New twist:

    Contractors are gaming state and city infrastructure budgets.

    Major cities are buying software and IT support from integrators that quietly subcontract the entire job to H-1B labor networks.

    Taxpayer money for bridges, schools, and utilities is being siphoned into private visa pipelines instead of local workers.

    What they call “immigration reform” is a lie.

    It is a money extraction system.

    It drains American wages, traps foreign labor in debt bondage, and launders profits through a maze of shell companies with political cover.

    An honest system would reward skill.
    This one rewards fraud.

    America First means shutting down the kickback network, breaking the vendor stacks, hitting proxy interview rings with RICO, and ending federal contracts that rely on foreign labor pyramids.

    Share this so people understand the truth.

    The H-1B system is not broken, it is functioning exactly as designed.

    FBI Raids $2,000-a-Month Washington Apartment of Afghan Immigrant Who Ambushed Two National Guard Soldiers Near White House
    FBI agents raided the $2,000-a-month apartment in Bellingham, Washington, on Thursday, executing search warrants as part of a rapidly expanding terrorism probe tied to Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the gunman who ambushed and shot two National Guard members just steps from the White House.
    Lakanwal is facing at least three counts of assault with intent to kill while armed, along with criminal possession of a weapon.
    Authorities have hinted that additional federal charges, possibly terrorism-related, could be forthcoming.

    The raid, led by FBI counterterrorism agents, seized multiple electronic devices, cellphones, laptops, iPads, from a residence that stunned neighbors described as “sparse,” with no beds, just couch cushions they would sleep on, and “barely any furniture,” IBT reported

    (Aside-the Creightons had a go Fund me for them. What was the money spent on?)

    According to locals, Lakanwal spoke little English, barely mingled with neighbors, and was ‘often seen playing Call of Duty’ inside his apartment.

    The operation also included searches of properties in both Washington state and San Diego, where agents reportedly collected additional digital materials.
    The FBI confirmed that this is no longer just a shooting investigation, it is now a full-scale counterterrorism operation, possibly with international angles.

    Officials confirmed special interviews have been conducted with Lakanwal’s relatives, including his brother, who is also living in the United States.

    Before securing his own residence, Lakanwal and his family, his wife, Khamila, and five young sons, were housed by a Washington State couple who launched a now-deleted GoFundMe campaign.

  9. Just The News: “President Donald Trump declared Saturday that the airspace above Venezuela should be considered closed to airline traffic amid high tensions with that country’s leader Nicolas Maduro over drug trafficking.

    “To all Airlines, Pilots, Drug Dealers, and Human Traffickers, please consider THE AIRSPACE ABOVE AND SURROUNDING VENEZUELA TO BE CLOSED IN ITS ENTIRETY,” Trump wrote in his Truth Social platform. “Thank you for your attention to this matter! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP.”

    Trump’s declaration came as his national security team weighs possible additional military action to stop Venezuelan drug traffickers beyond air strikes on narco-trafficking boats in international waters. It also comes after the FAA issued a notice urging airlines to avoid the region.

    “Operators are advised to exercise caution when operating in the Maiquetia flight information region at all altitudes due to the worsening security situation and heightened military activity in or around Venezuela,” a recent FAA notice warned.

    Trump told military troops on Thanksgiving that he would soon be taking action to stop Venezuelan drug trafficking by land after the success of air strikes on boats.”

  11. Just The News: “The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Joseph Edlow announced Friday that his agency is halting asylum decisions after a deadly shooting killed one National Guard member and injured another Wednesday. 

    The suspect in the shooting is an Afghan national who entered the U.S. with a special visa in 2021 in connection with the end of U.S. involvement in the war in Afghanistan and was living in Washington state. 

    Edlow said the pause will remain in place until all the necessary vetting steps are completed to ensure American safety. “USCIS has halted all asylum decisions until we can ensure that every alien is vetted and screened to the maximum degree possible,” the director posted on X. “The safety of the American people always comes first.”

    The move also comes a day after President Donald Trump said he will “permanently pause” all immigration from “third world countries.”

    The U.S. State Department also posted to X on Friday that it will pause all visa issuances to Afghan nationals. 

    “President Trump’s State Department has paused visa issuance for ALL individuals traveling on Afghan passports,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said. “The United States has no higher priority than protecting our nation and our people.”

  12. Just The News: “FBI Director Kash Patel said in an interview airing Saturday that the national murder rate in the United States is at its “lowest in modern history.” Patel said there will be an FBI report in December that will show some of the latest crime statistics in the country, which will include the national murder rate that is expected to drop by double digits. 

    Last year the murder rate was five per 100,000 people, down 15.8% from the year before and about one percent higher than a decade ago in 2015, according to Department of Justice data published in August.

    “I’m happy to announce, finally, that one of the big targets we had for this year, obviously, was to reduce the murder rate across America,” Patel told The Epoch Times. “This FBI is going to be releasing murder rates in December, which is the lowest it has been in modern history, by double digits.”

    The director also noted that his team has made 30,000 arrests since January, including 25,000 who were charged with violent crimes. The FBI has also been targeting criminal organizations that go after children, and has made 40% more espionage arrests compared to last year. 

    “We are actually disrupting them,” Patel said. “We’re kicking them out of our networks, we’re bringing them to trial, and we’re putting them in prison. That’s a very powerful public display of force.” Patel added that the increased productivity and arrests are the result of his restructuring of the agency, which has focused more on putting agents in the field rather than keeping 12,000 agents in the Washington, D.C. area.”

  28. “A Revolution in Vaccine Regulation and Approval: The truth behind this letter is stunning. I am embargoed by ACIP membership terms from disclosing what I know about this.”

    Dr. Robert W. Malone, Nov 29, 2025

    EXCERPT: “In the context of being vice-chair of the ACIP committee and a member of the relevant working group committee (whose proceedings are confidential), I have been in the loop concerning the investigation of these post-COVID vaccine deaths in children, whose deaths have been known since this summer but not released to the public due to the need to validate the initial findings independently.

    But due to my position with ACIP, I have not been able to report on them publicly. Even worse, frankly, I had to trust in the system and that Dr. Prasad, MD, CBER Director, would release the information or be allowed to release the information. But I have seen the data and findings, and they are even more stunning than this strongly worded letter indicates.

    To my great relief, Dr. Prasad has now been allowed to respond to these investigative findings and more. Just in time before the next ACIP meeting, which will be held December 4-5, 2025.

    I am stunned, gobsmacked by his letter below. The significance and importance of this letter in the context of US and global vaccine policy cannot be overestimated. This is a revolution, the likes of which I never expected to see in my lifetime.

    The Washington Post called me a liar for stating what is now official FDA policy and truth. These products do not work. They do not prevent disease and death. And as Secretary Kennedy testified in the Senate, objective analysis cannot even demonstrate that, on balance, they saved lives.

    Please take the time to read this stunning letter in its entirety…..”

  30. A second Afghan national who was flown into the United States under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome program in 2021 has been arrested in connection with a terror plot after threatening on TikTok to detonate a bomb in Texas. 

    This comes just days after 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, who entered the country under the same program in 2021, ambushed two West Virginia National Guardsmen in Washington, DC, killing one and critically injuring the other.

    Lakanwal’s permission to be in the US expired in September 2025, and he has been living in the United States illegally ever since.

    Now,  Mohammad Dawood Alokozay has been arrested for posting a video of himself online, threatening to use a homemade bomb in an attack around Fort Worth, Texas.

    He was admitted as a lawful permanent resident on September 7, 2022, following Biden’s failed withdrawal from Afghanistan during the summer of 2021.

    Alokozay has been charged with making a terroristic threat at the state level.

    “Just one day before the Terrorist attack against our @NationalGuard, another Afghan national who was paroled into the United States under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome was arrested for threatening to blow up a building in Fort Worth,” DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin posted to X. 

    “Mohammad Dawood Alokozay posted a video of himself on TikTok indicating he was building a bomb with an intended target of the Fort Worth area. He was arrested on Tuesday by the Texas Department of Public Safety and FBI JTTF and charged with making Terroristic Threats,” she explained. 

    The announcement of the arrest follows an attack against two National Guard troops in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday. The suspected shooter has been identified as Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan national welcomed into the country under Operation Allies Welcome. 

    “The magnitude of the national security crisis Joe Biden unleashed on our country over the span of four years cannot be overstated,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt posted to X. “President Trump has directed his entire team to continue rooting out this evil within our borders.”

    In response to the attack, President Donald Trump’s administration halted all asylum applications and visas for Afghan nationals. The president also suggested the government could “permanently pause” all immigration from “third world” countries.”
