So for most of his life, Forrest Fenn was known as a famous art dealer.

He owned a gallery 500 miles south of Dinosaur National Monument in New Mexico. And he had a reputation for being able to track down rare pieces of art that nobody else could find. And so because of this, people called him a real life Indiana Jones. However, late in Forrest's life, he started to get weird.

He stopped spending as much time at his art gallery and began spending a lot of time in the woods. He became increasingly obsessed with his legacy and with the stories in the adventure books that he'd read when he was young, like Treasure Island, Robin Hood, and The Legend of King Arthur. And also, he started writing.

And what he wrote was his book, The Thrill of the Chase, which was kind of a memoir, except that it was totally insane. Because in it, Forrest Fenn said he'd filled a literal treasure chest with $1.5 million worth of gold and jewels and hidden it somewhere in the Rocky Mountains.

And in this book, he wrote a cryptic poem that was supposed to contain nine clues that would lead the reader to the gold. When the book was published in 2010, it created what may have been the biggest treasure hunt in American history. But this treasure hunt did not result in anyone getting rich.

Instead, over the course of a decade, hundreds of people searched the Rocky Mountains looking for the gold, but nobody could find it. And also, four people who went out searching for it died. And so as a result of that, officials began begging Forrest Fenn to call off his treasure hunt before more people died. But Forrest refused. Both Beth and Stephen didn't believe in the treasure.
