Do you think this is DB Cooper?

The way he was dressed when he parachuted from the plane doesn't give me faith he could survive the cold temps. He was wearing a suit ,if I recall correctly ,when he jumped from the plane. He also had shoes on his feet, and I recall hearing they would have been s*cked off during the jump...

Re: Do you think this is DB Cooper?

Its hard to tell, from the pictures they could be the same person.  I just cant imagine that a veteran would not plan ahead and have supplies stashed at his drop site.  Since the case has been closed I doubt we will ever know for sure.

I think this will go down as one of the great unsolved mysteries along with Jack the Ripper and the Zodiac Killer.

@TenderMercies there was a fascinating series on SyFy (I think?) about Jack the Ripper.  His relative (grandson???) was investigating and there was compelling evidence that it was HH Holmes.  A really good series!

Well, they found the money eventually scattered along the river. I'm guessing his skeleton is stuck in some tree somewhere in that area. I don't believ he survived the jump.

Yes, but it was years and years later out in the wilderness. It probably was scattered all over the place.
