[@hopefullynotbutprobably6643]

He 100% did not survive the jump. He left the plane in the middle of a storm and would have been traveling at 200mph when temperatures outside would have been have -76 degrees Fahrenheit. He was wearing nothing but a business suit. Clouds would have prevented him from even seeing when to open the parachute. The parachute he left was uncontrollable so he wouldn’t be able to steer out the way from any obstacles. Even if by some absolute miracle he survived the jump and made it to the ground he would be stranded in the middle of the wilderness while dealing with hypothermia with no supplies. His body was never found because the wilderness is a big place.

I read a book from the 1980’s by Max Gunther titled “DB Cooper, What Really Happened.” It was about a man, then a woman 10 years later who contacted the author explaining what happened, why he did it, and what he did after. It was ignored as a hoax, but a few facts not known at the time by the public were revealed later by sleuths. One of the facts was revealed recently by the FBI through the freedom of information act. It was very believable and I think this person really was Cooper and his girlfriend. It was largely dismissed by Cooper fanatics because of small things in the book like the color or the parachute were wrong. Really, they were small facts easily explained by normal human memory changing things over time. Gunther was a well respected author who mostly wrote about financial matters and the previous year had a bestseller discussing investing techniques. The book never revealed their names, just their story. The main problem with McCoy is that both airline attendants said he wasn’t Cooper. One sat next to him for a few hours and McCoy committed the crime not too long after the Cooper hijacking. They were both adamant. McCoy wasn’t Cooper.

[@Sassyglbeauty]

Could be possible that the flight attendant didn’t want to be responsible for putting the guy away. Since, he didn’t really harm anyone?

[@johnbaugh2437]

@@Sassyglbeauty anything is in the realm of possibility…but McCoy had bad makeup and sweating profusely when he hijacked the plane. He was acting very odd and fidgety. Everyone noticed this. Even the pilot called air traffic control saying he thought the plane was about to be hijacked. The pilot had the plane diverted because of his concern. When McCoy noticed the plane was being diverted, he then proceeded with his crime. He used a gun threatening everyone on board. On the other hand, Cooper was pretty calm and collected. The other passengers had no idea they plane was being hijacked until the FBI met them at the airport after departing the plane.

You Guys won't ever Catch Me.

[@viperford6840]

It's funny how a good portion of people know who this guy is and yet we don't talk about it

[@sargentcool1882]

Maybe a bear tried to rob the hijacker and the robbery went sideways.

[@abhishekghosh2686]

Its safe to say that DB Cooper had a.... glorious purpose!!

[@MrAlexiasjones]

We all know it was Loki now...

[@NateM154]

No way an eye witness would miss those ears. That'd be the first thing anyone describes to a sketch artist. So, unless McCoy had a way to pin his ears back, it's not him.

[@pixeldragon6387]

Please, we all know he’s Loki

[@arjuns8915]

After jumping from the plane, he was like: Aight I m out

[@kbrock9146]

Ah yes, the ol' spray on nail polish.

[@speakforyourself1989]

We all know Loki lost a bet to Thor 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@ghoulasticz1052]

The joke is getting dead

[@Kroggnagch]

Guys, we can’t find missing persons when we know precisely their last known locations, destinations, attire, all that. Why is it impossible to believe he died and is somewhere perfectly disguised and unable to be seen, or is somewhere so thick with overgrowth we will never find him before deforestation.

[@sanjaygandotra644]

Foolishly so, all intelligence agencies think alike; that no one can think beyond what they think.

[@yannik_3462]

I feel like he just wanted to feel like an agent in an action movie jumping out of a moving plane.

[@chrissmith7669]

Lol. By far the best explanation was given by Stephen Kung in one of his short stories.

[@evilrules2124]

Honestly, the fact that he was so calm even though if he was as experienced as he seems to be he probably would of known about the survival rate leads me to think that he likely had mental issues, especially since he didn't seem worried about the evidence he left

[@noah7008]

He prolly was just tired of life and wanted money I can definitely understand something like that especially since he came up with a plan that wouldn’t physically harm anyone but mentally unstable is definitely a possibility

[@travisscottlover911]

His reply of him simply having a grudge is also vague. Something someone experiencing some sort of mental episode might say. He seemed confident. I think he could've been military experienced with multiple mental issues

[@me3333]

I always wondered if it was one of the pilots or if they were all in on it? It would be incredibly easy to make the whole thing up. The only thing is why didn't the money ever turn up.

[@davehooper5115]

brilliant story has gone down in folk lore, and great video explaining stuff

[@nathanielilo8380]

You'd assume at that time the airline would know the person sitting in that seat by looking to see who checked in to their flight.

[@jacobmathew4224]

DB Cooper is a legend and I am sure he survived 💯

[@cassidy2301]

The reality is.. if DB copper was ever caught he should be giving an award rather than a jail sentence” to pull this off in the 70s was pure genius 😊

[@kyledamron]

The man Eric Ulis just named as his primary suspect, Vince Petersen, really seems like a great candidate for Cooper.

[@williamrae9954]

Without doubt

[@MatsuK512]

Milton Vordahl is an even better candidate, he totally looks like all the sketches. Listen to the podcast on him

[@richardpierce7819]

One theory ( which make sense ) was that it was a CIA operation to show how vulnerable US aircraft were to highjackings, which would explain changes in security after this particular high jacking , it also explains why he was never caught. This highjacking also mirrored tecniques used by Air America ( CIA) in viet nam.

[@TudorOwen50s]

Press conference: "I am Dan Cooper"...and then he crokes!?! Press corps: "Guess that means no follow up questions."🤨

[@TrustMelDontCare]

Who else has watched "Without A Paddle"? 🤣

[@trentaccid2177]

HE HAD NO BOMB

[@the_synack]

We all know it was Loki paying off a bet with Thor

[@Rehmat-uw4vw]

he was found, michael scofield found him

[@DoctorCreepy]

I worked on the 727 for years. After DB did his thing, the rear door could no longer be lowered in flight.

[@lisacesari89]

Cooper Vane. 👏

[@dancooper8505]

This made my day

[@jethrobruceandal7487]

I thought this has already been solved... It was Loki.
