Rudolph Fentz - The Man Out of Time

The Rudolph Fentz case remains one of history's most puzzling alleged time traveler accounts. According to legend, in 1950s New York, a man dressed in 1870s clothing appeared confused by modern surroundings before being fatally hit by a car. Investigation reportedly revealed he was listed as missing since 1876, with unchanged aged documents and coins. Though likely an urban legend popularized by a 1972 sci-fi story, the tale persists due to its intriguing details - the man's outdated clothes, speech patterns, and lack of aging. The Fentz story continues circulating as a compelling, if unverified, time travel anecdote that captures public imagination.
