Hey there. New guy in the forum.
This may have been discussed, but has anyone read the book "ha ha ha" by a DB Cooper?. The story is fascinating, and makes a lot of sense as to how he was able to escape flawlessly. It appears that he was able to separate himself from every possible angle, and the only way that he would have been able to be caught, was to get caught in the act itself. He was Scott free after it happen... I also believe that the money was left behind as a clue.. I think the 5800 bucks was purposely left there, just to taunt someone.. It makes sense. The guy was not crazy about the governemnt, and he specifically used 20 dollars bills to show that. He basically used Andrew Jackson to show how he despised the US, for whatever reason. Then he placed the money that was seared or burnt around the borders, and deliberately placed it ON the border of 2 states in the Columbia river.. To me it is just so obvious that the money was supposed to be found, to send a subliminal message. To me, this turned into a game for him..
Maybe he was also not a fan of Columbus too.. It sounds like this guy was a conspriracy kind of guy, that wanted to make a fool of our own system, the FBi.
The words Columbus, and Andrew Jackson do not mix well with Native Americans..
Of course all of this is just a hunch, and I know a lot of folks have been studying this for quite a while, so I definitely do not want to teeter anyone's opinion, I just like to take a look at New angles..
There seems like a slew of unaswered questions, and the reason why that may be, is because this entire thing was deliberately made that way..
Everything is just a little bit odd enough for it to work out in just about any favor.. This will create a very sophisticated game of chase..
If my theory fits, then I have a suspect, that has never been in the spot light.. But he is in a spot light for different reasons, and he is giving back to someone that has a mind like him, in a similar way of changing an identity.
I think he is still alive, and I think he used his entire legacy to pass along to someone else with the same wits, if you can find him..
I don't know how far fetched this is, but if you take every detail, and ask every single question, then you should get a similar answer.. This took me a good amount of time and thought to sort out.
DB Cooper could be behind the scenes in a lot of scenes.. He had that power, as long as he knew the right people to tell.. He is the rarest at what he did, and people like rare things. As smart as he was, he knew that, and someone could have used his mind to create a lot of what we may have today..
I cannot see someone as smart as DB Cooper was to let his entire legacy go in 1 single death bed confession. He had a plan, and I am sure he had a plan to reveal his legacy for those who earned it. Just like he did.
Everything was carefully thought out and planned.. Everything from the name Dan Cooper, to Thanksgiving Day.. (Native Americans). There was a reason for all of it. You have to think that, otherwise your kind of leaving clues on the table.
Thanks yall!
