WA WA - D.B. Cooper Hijacking Mystery, 24 Nov 1971 #4

[CaMan60]

He may have actually jumped a lot further south, WAY further south than assumed. The area of the (presumed) jump has been searched repeatedly and nothing of Cooper has been found, nor has any of the money turned up in circulation.

By jumping further south he could have jumped in a more open area with few trees. About 10 years ago a guy who looked about 45 with a light hair color. Said to me he was D.B. cooper.
So maybe his last name was also Cooper, and I said the skyjacker would Not survive because, the jump would be like jumping into a tornado. He said something like... Ya like jumping into Two Tornado's.
Now we are into 2026 and there are more details in
the recent article in Popular Mechanics. And the You Tuber who has shown the real suspect and why he (DB Cooper) was not charged.

I don't think there's a chance in hell that he survived. It would just be interesting to know who he was. What matter of man could outwit the sophisticated, yet perpetually incompetent US government, and why?

The old saying goes "where there's smoke, there's fire". In this case there is a smoke screen of Misinformation to get through.
The idea of him jumping over a forest doesn't make sense. And we know the plane was going to land once for refueling before making the trip to Mexico. So he could have held off on making the jump until it was safe to jump. Because "It's Not Jumping that will kill ya It's the landing"

So you’re saying that the information about when he jumped is in fact misinformation?

Yes, Because he got... away. A simple search online is showing a mountain of information in this case.
One solid clue is the money found by a Youth in the sand on the banks of the river. It came from the plane and we know DB Cooper removed some money from the ( Duffel money bag ) showed it to crew members and put it under his jacket.
So when the plane was crossing the river a bundle fall out, landed in the river and was uncovered 9 years later.
The location where he jumped must have been planned for. Through observing the lights of the city and towns he knew
when to jump. Since the plane was on a flight path.
This opinion is IMHO.
