More clues...??
 
A story that just keeps getting new legs...



Quote:

Physical evidence that may be connected to the unsolved 1971 D.B. Cooper hijacking case is now in the hands of FBI agents in California.


The “evidence” -- a frayed 18-inch-long nylon strap that may have come from the parachute D.B. Cooper used when he escaped from a plane with $200,000 -- was found in a mound of dirt in the deep Pacific Northwest mountains nearly two weeks ago. It was turned in Friday to the FBI’s Ventura County office by acclaimed D.B. Cooper sleuth Tom Colbert, a Los Angeles TV and film producer

Given the altitude that DB Cooper made the jump, and the wad of money found in the river, I'd just made what, a mile (maybe two) circle from that wad of money that came from the duffle bag and find the body hanging in the trees or in a nice hole he made upon impact.

Jumping in a thunderstorm..... I can see him wrapped up in his own parachute screaming all the way down......

DB is dead....... so is the story, unless you're a moronic reality TV producer looking to cash in.

The FBI knows it but were covering it up because they don't want the truth coming out because Bigfoot had photo evidence of how they killed JFK. :munchin


As a matter of fact, he had to steal the money to cover the cost of the surgery. It was the extreme make over that went sideways.

DB Cooper was really Bill Otley, the Operation saved the USPA...

So you're saying that wasn't Bigfoot on the grassy knoll?

Actually, that was Bigfoot!...You see, Bigfoot was using his own hair as a ghillie suit and when the shooters hid behind him, he was effectively stuck.

I know how that feels, having someone take up a position right next to where you're prone in your ghillie.........:munchin

DB Cooper is dead.

Yeah, Yeah, I know...but this is just too fun to watch :munchin

Sort of a modern version of Butch Cassidy's alleged death in Bolivia

But hey, maybe it sells a few books and the guy makes a couple dollars.

A new ‘D.B. Cooper’ suspect? Yet another possible identity for elusive hijacker.

On Thursday, a whole new theory emerged from Carl Laurin, an 84-year-old pet sitter who lives in DeLand, Fla. Laurin, his Michigan publishing firm announced at a news conference, has written a memoir detailing the confessions of a longtime friend who supposedly committed the crime: Walter R. Reca, a former military paratrooper and intelligence operative.

Agree.

Another idiot hack and one more moron that thinks he'll make a buck off of bigfoot stories.

DB Cooper is long dead...…. he died in 1971 while "parachuting" from a jet in a thunderstorm. You can only perform that trick once. One day they will find the remains of his parachute/bones on the ground under a large tree that he landed in and hung himself while trying to release the parachute.

The true constants surrounding DB are (and both end in -ity): gravity and stupidity. I’m sure someone will find someone’s happy sock out in the woods and claim it was DB Cooper’s.

BTW, my dog’s name is Cooper! (Named because he was rescued, living in a chicken coop)
