The Strange Disappearance of D.B. Cooper

It was adjustable. He's starting to look like an idiot. - A bit. - The whole time, he's like, "Yeah, bourbon soda, mm bomb." Here's your note. "I'm a cool guy, sunglasses." Jump out of the plane. (screams) (screams) Splat. - It's not a splat, I think it's just a pine tree. Just, "No, no, no, no." (grunts) - "Kill me." - A little squirrel approaches him. "Get out of here." - Here are more details from Agent Carr. Quote: "No experienced skydiver "would have jumped in the pitch black of the night", in the rain, with a 200 mile per hour wind in his face, "in moccasins and a trench coat." , end quote Other reasons he possibly died in the fall include that he jumped into a wooded area at night, and there was no visibility of the ground at the time he jumped since there was cloud cover at 5,000 feet.

Obviously, this theory loses some credibility due to the fact that either his body or his parachute were never found. The last theory we will discuss comes from a group of amateur scientists who refer to themselves as Citizen Sleuths. I got you guys, no Don't worry. It will be down. Citizen Sleuths used an electron microscope to discover more than 100,000 particles in D.B. Cooper's tie. Among these particles they discovered cerium, strontium sulfide, and pure titanium. According to Citizen Sleuth principal investigator Tom Kaye, quote: "These are what they call rare earth elements." They are used in very limited fields, "for very specific things", end of quote.

Kaye stated that although these elements were rare during 1971, one place they were being used was at Boeing, where they were developing an advanced supersonic transport aircraft. Kaye and Citizen Sleuths posit that Cooper may have been a Boeing employee, explaining the rare materials found in his tie. Quote: "The bond accompanied him to these 'manufacturing environments,' so he was not 'one of the people running these manufacturing machines.' He was an engineer or a manager 'at one of the plants,' end of quote. Kaye believes the key to identifying Cooper lies in the memory of perhaps a person in the Pacific Northwest who was involved in the aerospace industry at the time.

If that person is you, all information can be passed on to Citizen Sleuths through the contact tab on their website, Citizensleuths.com. The FBI called its search for D.B. Cooper, "One of the longest and most exhaustive investigations in its history. In 2011, the FBI case file was 40 feet long and covered more than 1,000 suspects, so what we present here is just the tip of the iceberg. . The case was open for 45 years before the FBI finally closed it in 2016, although they are still open to listening to potential leads. What do you think that happened? - I'm going to use Occam's razor on this case and assume he shot himself to the ground.

A little juxtaposition of him being on the plane like, "I'll have a bourbon," and then two hours later. (screams) - After all these years, people are still transfixed by the identity of the cunning Thief known as D.B. Cooper. But for now, and perhaps forever, the case of D.B. Cooper will remain unresolved. What if the trench coat was like Batman, where it was like a flight-activated suit that allows him to fly like a flying squirrel? - In my mind, though, I don't imagine him saying, "Oh, here comes the tree line." I imagine him saying, "Oh, I can't see through the clouds, oh, now I can." - It's just. - Wile E.

Coyote. - Column of smoke. - Yes. - Oh, hello, I didn't see you come in. That's enough for this season of Buzzfeed Unsolved, but we'll be back with a new season soon, I promise. Now I'm going to go back to this case file. - That's bullshit. (wolf howling) - Look out for the new season of Buzzfeed Unsolved Supernatural coming soon.
