High Adventure (TV series)

High Adventure is an American TV series presented by Lowell Thomas. It ran on CBS from 1955 to 1958.[1]

Seven episodes were made by the Australian producer Lee Robinson.[2]

One of these was called "Australian Outback". It involved the search for the explorer Lasseter. Robinson claimed he found Lasseter's bones. He was charged with an offence by the government but charges were dropped.[3][4]

Footage from this episode were later used in the 1979 documentary The Legend of Lasseter.[5]
