Harold Camping was the force behind Family Radio, a Christian radio service that mainly featured Harold Camping. He briefly came to national attention several years ago by predicting the rapture was about to happen. He spent all of the money on the ministry to put up billboards and hire people to spread the message that the end was coming based on his numerology calculations.
