Ep. 44 : The Unsolved Mystery of DB Cooper
On November 24, 1971, a man wearing a trench coat and sunglasses walked into Portland International Airport carrying a black attache case, walked up to the Northwest Orient Airlines counter and slapped down cash. He gave his name as Dan Cooper and purchased a flight to Seattle, leaving that afternoon. That day would go down in infamy, as the day "DB Cooper" hijacked a flight, demanded cash and a parachute, and bailed into the middle of nowhere, never to be seen again. On this week's episode we take a deep dive into the mystery of DB Cooper and evaluate what we do know about this fascinating and confusing case. Halee gets maybe a little too into it, and considers a life in the forest looking for evidence of DB's daring jump. Elise brings her back to reality with a delicious and dangerously easy to make sweet treat! Join us on this adventure, and let us know who you think the real Dan Cooper was! Happy Haunting!
Who Was DB Cooper anyway?
The composite sketch of Dan Cooper has evolved over the years (after every eye witness said the first sketch didn’t look a thing like him!) The second photo is the one that most witnesses agree looks like him.
