The incredible true story of the millionaire who hid a chest full of gold and jewellery in the Rocky Mountains and sparked a global treasure hunt shows he was more than just his money.
Eccentric though he may have been, Texan tycoon Forrest Fenn, who passed away in 2020 after a fall at his home in New Mexico, succesfully launched the 10-year treasure hunt worth £2million single-handedly.
In 2010, around 350,000 people jumped on the bandwagon in the hopes of discovering his secret treasure trove, alluded to in a 24-line poem that featured in Fenn's self-published autobiography, The Thrill of the Chase.
