Now we can add Robert Fitzpatrick to the list of believers who think the world will end on May 21st. The retired MTA electrical engineer has stopped at nothing to advertise the end of the world. But what separates Fitzpatrick from Camping is that he spent his entire life savings to produce ads promoting the rapture. The final cost for all the promotion: $140,000.
Everywhere in Staten Island, including subway cars, platforms and bus shelters, are plastered with Fitzpatrick’s doomsday warnings. In newspapers his presence is also felt. The Staten Island Advance carries his ads, as well as the trade publication Defense News, out of Springfield, Virginia.

According to Fitzpatrick, “I believe that I will be raptured, instantly transported to heaven; I hope so, I don’t want to be here for the earthquake.”
Would you spend $140,000 promoting something that, in all likelihood, won’t happen?
