In 1928 he was the star attraction in a carnival that accompanied an extraordinary transcontinental running race from Los Angeles to New York. He was the Oklahoma Outlaw, admired as a hero in a criminal league to which he'd never truly belonged. And then, in the 40s and 50s, he was reinvented for a series of Hollywood exploitation films, before winding up painted day-glo orange and hanging by his neck in the Laff in the Dark ghost tunnel in Long Beach. He was found here in 1976 during the filming of an episode of The Six Million Dollar Man and finally handed over to the authorities. Mark Svenvold unravels the story - a dead body's journey through the 20th century.
