953 nut 62,560 #1 Posted 4 hours ago D. B. Cooper Day is annually observed on November 24 and is dedicated to what remains one of the most famous mysteries of all time. In 1971, a suited man named Dan Cooper hijacked a plane going from Portland to Seattle and parachuted off it. The catch? He seems to have disappeared into thin air and was never found again, dead or alive. On D. B. Cooper Day, Ariel, Washington, the little town Cooper is thought to have landed in, hosts a festival celebrating the events surrounding the skyjacking, the investigation, and the ensuing mystery. 2025 marks the 54th anniversary, and the fierce debate continues. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 74,925 #2 Posted 4 hours ago Interesting subject line. I've watched a few shows about this. The only conclusion I can come to is, nobody actually knows..... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MainelyWheelhorse 2,142 #3 Posted 4 hours ago Every so often someone pops up claiming to be him. There have been a few though that are factually scarily close and could legitimately be him. However, It gets debunked and proven not to be him pretty quickly. For all we know he’s still in the woods where he landed. Whether he is still alive or dead we may never know. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
