Featured in Ripley's Believe It or Not!
Though Robert Ripley sought as many Believe It or Not! stories as he could by researching in the library and fan submissions, he also spent a great deal of his career scouring the world for amazing things to share with people back home.
Ripley adored travel, exploring over 200 countries in his lifetime. Visiting every continent but Antarctica, he became known as the Modern-Day Marco Polo for his unwavering commitment to seeking out the odd.
