STATEN ISLAND, NY (1010 WINS) – Two days and counting… the end of the world is near, according to a Staten Island man.

Robert Fitzpatrick says that around 6 p.m. Saturday, all Hell will be breaking loose.

Fitzpatrick is the author of “The Doomsday Code.” He says come Saturday evening, buildings and bridges will collapse, dams will burst and flames will consume the planet.

“Industrial wastes will be released, radioactive wastes will be released, it’s going to be Hell on Earth,” Fitzpatrick told 1010 WINS’ John Montone.

1010 WINS’ John Montone reports: Staten Island Man Predicts The End Of The World, Says He’s Sane


Fitzpatrick says as God begins destroying the planet, true believers like him will be sucked up into Heaven. Everyone else he says, will die.

“It’s very upsetting but that is what the Bible is telling us,” he said.

Some skeptics may think Fitzpatrick has a few screws loose and though he says he has never met with a mental health expert he says he is “quite sane.”

Naysayers around the country are sponsoring “Rapture parties” to celebrate the world not coming to an end. Online, a Facebook group sarcastically promoting post-Rapture looting has thousands of people signed up.

Yet even as he anticipates the fiery end to all human existence, Fitzpatrick continues to recycle his trash as if life will go on.

Do you think the world will end on Saturday? Sound off below in our comments section.

  • Rita S

    This guy is a nut job – just like HAROLD CAMPING….and the crazy people that probably quit their jobs, spent their savings, etc…will be the ones standing on the corners begging for money thereafter. What makes these nuts think that Man will crack the code…get a life and stop trying to scare people. I anxiously await May 21…22 so that I can see what ‘excuse’ we will hear now? Another miscalculation??? PA-LEASE.. do us all a favor and shut up!

    • Jeanie Schneider

      I believe he’s one of Camping’s followers. I’m a Christian myself, a devout one, but I firmly believe in what the Bible says, “You do not know the day or the hour”. So I just keep going about my business – work, church, everything – expecting Christ’s return at any time.

  • phyllis

    the bible says no one knows the day nor the hour that christ will come he will come as a thief in the night but you can rest assured that he wiil come i hope that this message of his coming on saturday would make us aware of that jesus christ who loves us and gave his life for us as smart as we think we are the breath that we breathe belongs to him weather we believe or not there is an eternal life to come its your choice why not try jesus you would not be dissapointed

  • harry kim

    the bible also says you should be put to death for working on the sabbath, lets all get a grip

  • tnt1528

    damn, i just got my flu shot

    • a gray

      Thank you. I needed a good laugh.

  • Uncle Vito

    Wasn’t there a movie called, “The 70-Year-Old Virgin” ?

    • badman

      Uncle Vito for president!!

      • Rita S.

        I vote for Uncle Vito!!

  • Bob and Diann R.

    The Bible States: No one knows the hour or the time of Jesus Christ’s second coming or the end of times. But accept Christ, Jesus into your heart now, receive Him and ask for forgiveness of your sins this day and hour. We are ready and excited for His coming now, why wait for Saturday! Thank You Jesus for ALL that You do this day and everyday, Amen!

  • Fernando

    He did get one thing right in his statement.

    “Fitzpatrick says as God begins destroying the planet, true believers like him will be sucked up into Heaven. Everyone else he says, will die.”

    He is right “Everyone else will die” NO KIDDING!!

    • Ace of Spades

      Thats why the world is the way it is.It’s not the gods or anything like that. Man will destroy themselves before the gods get to use. It’s talk like that that makes people upset. Religion is pure. But it’s people like fitz whatever and you who make religion seem so cruel. How can a person live a life devoted to saving lives and helping others. A person who puts others before themselves but doesn’t believe in a god not make it to heaven?? At that point think to your self is it even worth believing in a religion that scares people into believing in it just so that their souls can be spared. Sad…..

      • Fernando

        Religion is not Cruel. people are cruel.
        And just to clarify, I am not speaking about religion I am speaking in a biological sense.

        “We will all die one day”. Correct???? Unless you know of a special elixir that might make us live forever?

        The End

  • harry kim

    bring it on! I dare ya!!

  • Mariam

    Not even His Son knew the day? Don’t believe in some crazy. The day was reveal to this man. I don’t think so. Look in Matthew 24:36, Marcus 13:36, Hebrew 1:6-11 and Phillipians 2:3-11.

  • Borlan

    I can only assume you are a child or mentally handicapped in some way. Sorry you are so unhappy with yourself.

  • Ms. Billie M. Spaight

    No way. No more than Y@K destroyed everything. Besides, the world is supposed to end on December 21, 2012 anyway.

    It does appear that we are LIVING through Armageddon though–with all those disasters going on.

  • DanTe

    Now, will this prophet be considerate enough to die on that day? Preferably taking out all his spawns and removing the contaminant in the gene pool at the same time?

  • Enjoy the day

    Only God knows when he will end his creation. Genesis states that God will never break His Covenant with us. Thus the rainbow is a reminder to us. As Jesus says no one knows when the time will come…we need to stay awake and ready.

  • CSI

    And what if it doesn’t happen. Then what????? Would that change his view on religion? Probably not. God could say cyborgs are going to take over and he will probably believe it.

  • Mike

    We already have the media badmouthing Christians. And now it is sad to see Camping make a mockery of the Bible. We are definitely on the threshold of judgment day. But the date cannot be predicted.

  • Ann

    Lord, I’m ready!

    • The Lord

      As am I. Come to papa.

  • Nick

    I think I will stick with what Jesus teaches us not Mr Fitzpatrick and or Harold Camping.
    We may be in the beggining satges of the end – the Bible does talk about false prophets – lets start with one named HARLOD CAMPING

    • Philip Aing

      Nick, I am 100% agreed with you. No one in the earth can predict when Jesus
      will come again. When he comes he comes, this is what Bible says too.
      Philip

      • Rita S.

        Absolutely correct. We were not meant to know these things. These guys are obviously considered false prophets.

    • CSI

      There has been false prophets since the begging of time. Lets put it this way. As long as human life is present there will always be someone who will think they can do, see, hear or what ever that is to become of the future or the end of the world.

  • Dalllas Kid

    The whole concept of “rapture” is not really in the New Testament. It was a later concoction of mistranslation, misinterpretation, etc. Do you research and you’ll see how it came to be popularized in the 19th C.

  • Surrymail

    Must be a Harold Camping devotee!

  • Betsy Crenshaw

    Glory be, what a handsome fellow!

  • Brenda A

    Did he read the Bible where it says that noone knows when, not even the angels only The father.
