Nearly 30 years after Jessica Alba’s terrifying kidnapping on the set of Flipper, the shocking case remains unsolved.
In 1996, while filming in Australia, 15-year-old Alba mysteriously vanished for 14 hours. Her disappearance sent shockwaves through the production team, as frantic searches yielded no immediate clues. She was eventually discovered bound and gagged in the trunk of a car, miles away from the set yet no suspects were ever identified.
Adding to the eerie circumstances, Alba had reportedly received unsettling phone calls prior to the abduction, fueling speculation that she was being watched. However, despite investigations, no concrete evidence linking the calls to the crime was ever found.

Fans recently rediscovered the story, flooding social media with disbelief. “The fact that they’ve never found who kidnapped her and nobody saw her being kidnapped on set is so disturbing,” one user wrote.
Another commented on Alba’s resilience, saying, “The fact she stuck it out in the industry and became such a sexualized woman is wild.”
While the Fantastic Four star has rarely spoken about the harrowing experience, she has since built an empire, thriving in Hollywood and as the founder of The Honest Company.
Yet, the chilling question lingers: Who was behind Jessica Alba’s kidnapping and why?
