For the $200,000 DB Cooper took, there has been millions and millions of dollars spent trying to find who the hell was he is.
Yup in today's dollars it close to $1,200,000.
It's the principle... that money can't gain interest!
Okay, bad joke. Usually, it sets a bad precedent to let a guy get away...
It was a great, ironic observation, though.
@@MrSoarman NO, it's much more...maybe 2.5 mil
@@cyanara01 I saw a story today that said $21,000 worth of equipment got stolen from a police car. That dude hit's 10 more cars and he's a bigger thief than DB! lol
D B should stand for Don’t Bother & try to figure it all out! He pulled it off & no one was hurt except the ones who can’t solve it!!😊👍 Hats off to DB !!!!!!
Congratulations on the meticulous research that led to finding the original owner of DB Cooper's necktie.
I've been waiting for this information ever since he pulled off his caper ;-)
Bahahaha necktie bahahaa tieclip give it up its over he won
My thoughts exactly
😹
@@ermano58 we are not certain if he won.
Any number of things could have explained where DB Cooper got the tie. He could easily have bought it from a thrift store days before the hijacking.
that was my immediate thought.
If DB handled the tie there's DNA.
@@deependz3231 50+ years later?
@@mj.l good point
This comment is dumb. Any number of things could exclude *anything*. They're looking for evidence to narrow down suspects. They know he could have bought the tie but is that likely? You have to consider all the evidence.
My uncle Earl was an engineer at Boeing 60s & 70s ... he swore it was a guy he had worked with who disappeared, was part Native American from the Columbia river area who was a Vietnam Vet. Thank you for all your efforts.
Did your uncle call his name , Grimesy ?
you should call that tip in
@@stardust4225 : ), thnx, I will!
What is your uncle's name?
If this is all true, I have no doubt that your uncle worked with DB Cooper.
Provided the tie didn't come from a thrift store...
Dohhhhh..!
They dont have a clue all they can do is accuse dead people based on so called evidence that wouldnt hold up in court. Anyone could have traces of metal on their tie I think its time for the FBI to give up.
This is definitely the best step by step analysis I’ve ever seen broken down. The detective work is impeccable!
literally nothing new came of this
Yea not really great detective work
DB Cooper was my father's sister's cousin's friend's uncle. I know it!
What a coincidence-DB Cooper was my uncle's neighbor's 3rd cousin twice removed former belly dancer turned lover

The man never got off the plane. He was the pilot. Entire flight crew collaborated. He walked off a hero.

...and you know this...how?
@@jamesw1659
Because he didn’t parachute out of the plane. Flight crew played absolute ignorance to when and where he supposedly jumped etc. they were complicit and in retrospect it’s obvious they were but at the time they looked like cool headed professionals even volunteering to stay on the plane lol.
@@sailingseahawk2012 So in other words, complete conjecture...
Dead ass you could be right. The whole crew of Chernobyl caused the explosion because of lies. It could be the same way with this case.
Bring back Paul Harvey, And now 'The Rest of the Story's I sure miss Paul Harvey
Absolutely
Question : Did you ever consider that maybe DB , shopped at Goodwill , before he hijacked the plane , as to throw off anyone trying to investigate that type of stuff ??? 😳🤔🙄🥴
That wasn't a concern back then, as pertinent technology didn't exist. A tie was to make you presentable in public and that was about it. Not wearing one would've stood out. His legend survives because, among other things, he was nondescript.
This person knew what he was doing, and had a plan. If he went out to buy clothes, it would've meant more people could have had a chance to identify him.
@@fallandbounce you try really hard
Years ago I went to look at some livestock located at a place owned by one DB Cooper. It was set back off a dirt road in a thick wooded area.It was a sort of survivalist center of some degree or type. Really strange buildings. The kind that a engineer might build. Not the normal house and barn.
Mr Cooper was not available to talk to but a young woman showed me some of the buildings. Really different.
Dan Cooper was the name used by the hijacker. A reporting error in the first run of the story resulted in the name DB Cooper bring picked up.

It's another theory. Thank you for the hard work researching and providing the name of a new suspect. Thought I'd let you know the camera did not pan out allowing viewers of this video to view Mr Peterson's picture.
Where can we hear the rest of the seminar? What did he look like as the camera didn't show?
Totally agree. Its just another theory video.
This might be the Part 2 you're looking for. th-cam.com/video/0cFlixmDAJA/w-d-xo.html
You can see what I presume is Vince Peterson's picture next to the "usual" picture of D.B. Cooper in the thumbnail for this video !
A hypothesis actually
The part we're not hearing is "What happened to Vincent? Did he become a missing person?"
It would seem an essential piece to linking DB Cooper to the research professional who came in contact with the elements on the necktie. Did Vincent's wife report him as missing?
Obviously he wasn't missing he lived until 2002. He didn't necessarily have to be reported missing, his family could have believed he was away for a legitimate reason. Since this was around Thanksgiving, there is a good chance his wife and family will remember if he was gone around that time. If he just happened to be gone from that particular Thanksgiving then this might be a solid lead. If he was having money problems at the time maybe even more solid. If he wasn't, then its another dead end. His family is probably the key. But as far as we know he had no connection to the Seattle Tacoma area which it was believed Cooper did. I think he was a little old for Cooper too. His family would also have an idea if he was spending more after the incident.
@@joshlight6892 : Good points! Maybe the one tell tale sign to Vince's family would be the compound fractures in both legs, massive head injuries and the shattered branch of yellow pine puncturing his thoracic cavity. Other than that, he might pull it off if he just didn't spend the money recklessly.

The 727 added a simple device to keep the rear stairs from being dropped while in flight after the D.B. COOPER robbery, it was called
" THE COOPER LATCH" .
No,, it was called the cooper vane,,, it turned like a weather vane,,, so in fwd flight it would turn and prevent the steps from coming down,, it was spring loaded.
Yeah, we all know that.
actually it is refered to as the db cooper mod among aircraft mechanics' it is a simple modification blocking the aft ladder from opening in flight.
Im an aircraft mechanic, its called the cooper vane by any aircraft mechanic thats ever worked on 727's.
@@markpede1865 and its no "ladder" its a set of stairs.
I believe there are a lot of loose ends, that haven't been "tied" together.
Why does it cut off
So these peeps will watch part 2, shameless views grab! I'm out!🤣 I'll wait until it hits the news, "We got him!" and all that.
I never thought there would be any new information about this case to come out. Amazing how law enforcement is on the cutting edge of technology.
This is interesting, but at best for what is in this video (I think it cut off at the end), is that the tie may have worked in various labs and workshops and that tie ended up attached to D.B. Cooper's shirt. LOL!
One of Australia's longest unsolved mysteries was Somerton Man. He was a fellow who, in 1948, laid down on Somerton Beach near Adelaide and quietly died in the night. No one came forward to identify him. For various reasons, over the years it was thought he may have been a ballet dancer or a Russian spy.
All labels had been removed from his clothes and a number of articles were made in USA. He too had a tie and on the back was printed the name T. Keane (or could it be J. Keane?).
In 2021 to 2022, extensive DNA tests were run on Somerton Man and the results were worked through familial DNA. Only by way of DNA was the man identified as Carl (Charles) Webb, a troubled man from Melbourne. Some of his clothing and the tie came from a nephew or brother-in-law whose names were J. Keane and T. Keane. The nephew who was killed in WWII had lived in the U.S. for a short period of time.
I think my point is kind of clear. D.B. Cooper's tie may have been all sorts of places but was it on Cooper's neck when it was in those places? An engineer's relative could have obtained the tie. D.B. Cooper was ultimately a criminal so he could have stolen the tie. The tie could have been donated to a thrift store or swiped from a laundry. Did the engineer travel? His tie could have been swiped from a motel room or from lost or stolen luggage. Clip on ties could be quickly shared if a man needed to wear a tie and did not have one. Yes, even some restaurants in those days required neckties.
I assume there is more to the talk presented in this video since it practically cut a word in half at the end. Perhaps I am premature in my theorizing but IMO there needs to be a lot stronger evidence than where the tie has been. ;-)
I agree. I saw this story a year or so ago. My first thought was, well this tells us where the tie may have been. He says DB Cooper had these particles on his tie… Also you have to take into account that Cooper took the tie off on the plane, sat it on the seat next to him. Particles could be picked up from coming into contact with the seat. I doubt Northwestern vacuumed the seats between flights. I think you hit the mark on the thrift store aspect. The case this guy is making, would not convict someone in a court of law without more evidence.
Im glad I lent him my tie.!
Random question. During the time DB Cooper hijacked the plane did hand-me downs or second hand store not exist? Cause if they did than that might poke holes in his story :/ I want to know who DB Cooper is but I was robbing a place I would rip off tags and buy second hand clothing. So just saying…
How about yard sales and flea markets?
@@scottsent8120 that too.
Yes, there were tons of yard sales, rummage sales, garage sales. Many, many people wore hand-me-downs from friends or relatives.
Yeah
Not sure that any of that would have been a thought back then. They never even knew about DNA let alone particles of titanium
Nice video Mike.
Looking forward to the next one!!!
Thanks

WTF!! Wheres the rest of the story?
Very interesting, great research. However I can’t imagine DB would not have been known how to skydive. He would have been an extremely experienced skydiver, and everyone who knew him would’ve been aware of that, in my opinion.
He jumped with a parachute that had been sewn shut. Checking your chute before jumping should be the first thing anyone learns and does when skydiving. Idk...
Who would consider parachuting out of the back of an airplane with a bundle of cash with no airborne experience? I would be like.... What do I do?!?!
Idk. I'm very experienced in a lot of different things. That I haven't told others about.
Checkout Dan Gryders channel, this mystery has been solved!
@@governmentghost01 yes but that’s not the one he used. I have thought about this before and I think that he was so well-versed that he most likely knew the bad one from the good one right away. Probably laughed. And jumped anyway.
He wasn’t doing a classic protocol jump that’s for sure.
Oh, this was just getting interesting when it got cut off... I wanted to hear the whole talk.
I so glad to hear all of this! Thank you all!
That tie had 6+ years of use prior to the hijacking. Also, your assuming no cross contamination after 50 years in FBI custody.
cross contamination of those particles would be pretty difficult, even if the chain of custody was marginal, unless someone took the tie to a research lab containing those particles and then brought it back to evidence.
they would have had that thought and it is extremly unlikely the case based on one evedance is not just tossed around willy nilly it is the FBI. And secondly 100,000 particals and he found three extremly rare ones, so again unlikely these were from cross contamination particals.
Are you really suggesting we trust the FBI files/evidence. They dropped the case officially recently, 10 to 1 it was part of a whole false flag op anyway. Let's move on to other crimes please.
EXACTLY... TIE COULD HAVE BEEN WORN BY A WORKER THEN GIVEN AWAY.......GEEEEZ, THIS GUY HAS NO CLUE.....
That would be an odd thing to come up with in cross contamination... wouldn't it??? A very rare substance?
In 1970, a man buys a tie at a yard sale and goes on to be the infamous D B Cooper, rendering all of this bright eyed fellow's hard won research moot...
After watching this video, I feel likeI asked someone for the time and they proceeded to tell me how to make a watch.
McCoy or Christiansen are much better suspects with greater amount of circumstantal evidence and and witnesses
There's some circumstantial "evidence" that a guy named Kenny Christensen was D.B.Cooper. K.C. was a former paratrooper who worked with Boeing planes at an air base in Alaska and then in several positions at Northwest Airlines. D.B. Cooper was familiar with the plane's drop down back steps. He knew flying well enough to order the wing flaps kept at 15 degrees from horizontal to keep the plane from exceeding 200 mph, a doable jump speed. Christensen would have known these details and was an experienced parachute folder and jumper. Moreover, at his rural house, he appeared to suddenly make a lot of purchases right after the hijacking. Height, size, build, and face he fits the description of Cooper the F.B.I. produced. Brad Melzer's "Decoded" series did a program on Christensen, who has already died. Christensen's brother claims Kevin gave a deathbed statement that he was Cooper. The true identity might well end up like the JFK assassination, neither to be settled beyond doubt in my lifetime, not to mention the Zodiac Killer around San Francisco.
But Dan Cooper jumped with a dummy reserve. He had jumped I think, but not often. I think he was not an expert.
They found the money years later ..and it was marked
@@Mary-xj3lt SOME of the cash. @ 5 grand
Your C.K. Is much more compelling the this Fox update ✌️❤️
@@Svensk7119 What is the typical consequence of doing a jump with a defective reserve parachute?
I like how he is using particle evidence to try and come up with a suspect, rather than a death bed confession.
Yeah, particle evidence that could have come from anywhere.
@@Mooseman327 no it came from one place specifically, lol you didn't watch the video and make comments that make you look like a moron, good job Skippy 🤡
Yes - it sounds to me like particles may have been picked up in a tie factory.
Fun fact… DB Cooper actually pulled that tie from the Salvation Army bin on the morning of the hijacking.
@@paulbenoit6076 really?
If I learned anything from this presentation, it’s that you should *never* buy a necktie at a yard sale or resale shop.
Where can I watch the whole thing?
Ok, I confess, I bought the tie on clearance at Penny's in '66; and, I gave the on-board flight attendant a bundle of bills for her cooperation and lowering the staircase; the "seed" money
left on shore was to give the appearance of drowning; the chute that was found was the primary chute left on the tree canopy--while the backup chute was the one never recovered; 9 years prior to this event, I also coordinated the night time boat ride for the Anglin brothers and Frankie--as I was the mechanic/machinist that repaired their boat also. This month I'll be 83.
Open up, FBI! We got you surrounded!
Richard McCoy who denied being DB Cooper, is who I believe is DB Cooper. He pulled off the same crime, fits the description, had the skills to do it.
This is for people who don’t look at facts, totally different personalities, the witnesses said not him and he was a bumbling wreck who lost his notes and drew attention to himself not to mention those ears! . McCoy also was too young, had a big mouth and was caught right away. Agent Carr wanted to pin it on him and call it a day but couldn’t come close.
I mean of course he’s going to deny being D.B. Cooper 😂
@@steph8030593 there have been a couple of attention seekers claiming to be.
Richard Floyd Mccoy. He was busted after a similar hijacking in Utah with money, and parachute. Eventually shot by FBI agents. Dan Gryder alleges an FBI cover-up because of the embarrassingly off base "investigation". The kids have come forward after their Mom passed away. They just found the one of a kind customized parachute he used in storage.
He was my pick also
He says nothing about if Vince Peterson disappeared for any amount of time, or when he died, or….anything else
Incredible! Just incredible.
DB probably found the tie at Goodwill. All I can say is, thankfully we are all innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
🤘😎
Pretty much
I was thinking same thing. Charlie Manson could worn clothes before you got it on the cheap. That don't make you a guilty of Manson Murders.
Yes, there were tons of yard sales, rummage sales, garage sales. Many, many people wore hand-me-downs from friends or relatives.
NOT so anymore. Unfortunately your guilt or innocence has a lot to do with your political party these days. Watching/listening to/reading people's responses to that statement will tell you immediately who is who. FYI
Actually they don't know if the tie even belonged to Dan Cooper.
Need to hear the rest of this please
where is the rest of this video? why does it cut off?

Totally different finding.
I appreciate the feedback. Who do you believe more?

The ENTIRE saga sounds like a CIA False Flag operation to keep the public’s attention FOCUSED on a massive NOTHING BURGER.
The Government dies this regularly with the sheeple to keep their brains focused on a dime store mystery novel being played out on National TeLIEvision.
The entire thing was STAGED just like the Fake George Floyd Event but for very different reasons.
@@LaGrandeBayou I like the disgruntled airline employee that was stationed in the Aleutians and was trained in special forces in the military, the guy picked the parachute that he had trained on.

Brilliant research! I love this stuff.
When I was young and we visited Tacoma WA as a kid, my mom befriended a guy who fit the description and had DB as his actual name initials. Tall, looked almost exactly like the drawings, ex green beret who trained gunboat soldiers and was a paratrooper of course. Highly intelligent and very capable of doing this hijacking. I met him again, much later in life, and he was involved in the drug trade as a business as he had ties to Vietnam suppliers and was a business man, even dressed in a tie, suit regularly.
He fit the age, the time was right as he was in the Wa area during this and I have always wondered as he could have easily had the intelligence and military experience to pull this off and it fit his personality as well as his initials of his first and last name being DB…
Maybe, maybe not, but for me, he fit this scenario perfectly
Thanks for sharing.
I am 71 now and grew up in Kent, Washington. We grew up knowing very well of DB. This info is fascinating to me and I am so interested in this!!
But do you think he would be dumb enough to keep matching initials even if he changed his name.
@@SavageFrenchies Fair question. You never know human nature and others have done similar. A mystery that might never be solved after so many years, but it just always made me wonder as my guy fit so well…

So, who is to say Cooper didn't buy a used tie, for the costume he was wearing? Goodwill, yard sale, borrowed a friends old tie, etc.
Thanks for this information, always interested in DB Cooper findings.
There was a little kid that found some money from DB Cooper in the woods a long time ago and his niece in Portland Oregon came forward and said that her uncle was DB Cooper . She said he's successfully pulled it off and lived in obscurity until the day he died in the early 90s I believe
Marla Cooper
The money find had nothing to do with DB or Marla.
pssst....it was a false flag. Rubber bands still intact.

@@bryonharrison1978 exactly! You made my point even stronger. He proved it could be done, & the fact he broke out of prison which was the cause for the FBI to shoot & kill him.

McCoy has the closest resemblance to the composite of all the suspects.
I wonder why finger prints didn't match.

Everything about Marla Cooper's (we live in the same town and I've talked to her) story makes sense. DB had to have help and LD's brother has ties to Boeing. The parachute got burnt and LD moved to Canada and dropped of the radar. Every suspect I've researched has a disqualifier except LD.
Marla said LD's favorite comic was Dan Cooper. Had copies on his wall.
just sayin

@@christinaFaith84 ha. Funny. For a woman anyway.
I love intellectual and mystery unsolved cases type shows and themes...
T.V. shows such as Dateline, Unsolved Mysteries, the UnXplained, Cold Case Files, Forensic Files, the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes...and many other similarly-themed shows...
Some cases intrigue me more than others. The "D.B. Cooper" case has is one of the more intriguing mysteries that I am aware of.
I have watched over the decades -- at least 7 or 8 very distinct T.V. shows concerning "D.B. Cooper": From most recently Josh Gates (who's "Expedition Unknown" appears often on the History Channel) to other very distinct programs as well. This case has been 'beaten to death' and most of the evidences and hypotheses to who D.B. Cooper is to his fate or lack of such have been very convincing -though there is much disagreement and variation as to who his identity is or isn't...and whether he survived at all or not......etc....
As far as I know -from past episodes I have seen about D.B. Cooper- the F.B.I. "officially" closed his case not many years ago...but seemingly are willing to 're-open' the case pending VERY STRONG EVIDENCE OR MOTIVE to re-open it...
An 'amateur' who is either 'thinking outside the box' or exploring avenues not touched on sufficiently (i.e., "forensic evidence") may be poised to be the one who finally solves this case for once and for all -such as the "frog" who narrates this youtube video who I gather and deduce is employed by Fox 13 Seattle (?)
I have heard in other previous episodes that Cooper's tie had been forensically-tested. However, perhaps this "frog" in this video may either have expertise in 'chemicals' and 'forensics' that previous investigator's into the D.B. Cooper case have NOT HAD.......and/or perhaps he has just simply 'pushed the envelope' SLIGHTLY MORE......and/or has a keen eye for the 'poignant' forensics that would "tie" (no pun intended) D.B. Cooper to a specific place and time -- eliminating all other suspects in the process...by means of a more thorough 'chemical analysis.'
Could this "frog" in this video be correct? Could he have accurately identified D.B. Cooper as one "Vince Peterson?" Maybe. His theory seems to fit but could there be ALTERNATE explanations for why certain chemicals were found on Cooper's tie -that were identified by this "frog?"
I would like to hear more about how this case is proceeding in the future...

That guy never left his state let alone traveled to Japan.. 3 particles isn’t a lot… maybe he hugged D.B Cooper, and it was transferred that way. Working with metals, I guarantee that tie would be riddled with debris not just a couple fragments.
It wasn't part of our culture for men to hug back then. A firm handshake, and maybe pat on the back was about it.
@@nash...... it was 3 particles of the titanium
Oops I deleted my comment before I realized you replied. I went back and answered my own question. Interesting. 3 particles of the rare patented titanium but sounds like there were more generic titanium particles found as well.
found over 100k particles
Good point. My uncle swore it was someone he worked with at Boeing who disappeared at that time, he was part Native American and a Vietnam vet.
The never-ending persistence given to solving this case, provides me with hope for finding MH370. Humans don't give up on mysteries and things that are lost.
That's a big part of our makeup as humans. We persist, over and over, until we solve things. When people tell me MH370 will "never" be found, I say they're full of it. It will be found. Just a matter of time.
This is what distinguished us from Neanderthals. Just imagine how many people sailed off into the ocean to never be seen again before one ship finally returned.
@@justussneary19 I was saying that to someone earlier today! What made us outlast all other hominid species is persistence no matter the odds.
Persistence doesn't always pay off.
There's still mysteries from decades and even centuries ago, that haven't ever been solved, and probably never will.
@@truthseeker2321 Persistance always pays off, ask DB Cooper!😷
I mean, we’ve found a couple pieces of floating debris that were later confirmed to be part of the wreckage, other than that though they found the flight data recorder but it was discovered that the batteries had gone flat long ago so there was no data to discover from that. It’s really sad but it’s truly bizarre how a modern aircraft and over 200 people can just vanish off the face of the earth like that.
Just imagine when the cop who took the tie out of evidence to show it to his friend who works at a machine shop realizes what happened.
Would like to see the rest. Why was it cut off?
Dan Gryder already solved the D.B. Cooper mystery. Check out his channel and search D.B. Cooper Deep Family Secrets Part 1. It's 2 hours and 48 minutes long and worth it if you're interested in the subject.
I've watched that 3 times. Obviously this is not the truth this guy is looking for. Move along.
@@mattherres9795 lol
@@mattherres9795 what's your proof? He actually jumped out of a plane to see if it was possible to hang on to the money using the same bags that were used in the hijack. He proved it was not possible no matter how Hard he hung on to them. Have you seen the videos. He spent 20 years with this investigation. He actually went out and tried to repeat what theories and other investigators claim. If they didn't pan out he moved on. His background as a Delta pilot and actually flying that very same model of plane and many other fixed Wing aircraft gives him some perspective that most other investigators don't have. His channel investigates plane crashes and incidences and actually goes out to the sites and he finds things that the NTSB will miss. One site he actually found many parts that they left behind and he could not believe that they had done that. And they are supposed to be the experts. One recent crash he had found at the NTSB and left behind pages of the pilots log book strewn about the site. He went and picked them all up reorganized him and made copies. To him it is evidence and it helps him determine what was the pilot thinking and their experience by their history when they crashed. These are details that many of these so-called investigators of this mystery don't look at as important. Maybe you agree with Dan it's hard for me to tell from your comment. But we have to look at what these people are thinking and what they're missing when they explain their theories.
@@davidclemens1578 My comment was a facetious remark about those who were dismissive of Dan Gryder's video.
And of note, Dan Gryder is experienced in skydiving and aviation, and did a thorough job of applying that knowledge. He also found the children of DB cooper and they were willing to talk now that the DB Cooper and his accomplice have passed away, and 100% confirmed it was their parents (They were unwilling to talk to him before the parents passed away). He also interviewed close friends of the family and one of them confirmed that they knew that friend was "DB Cooper". And Dan Gryder's theory fits with "DB cooper" as someone with motivation and means (training). It also gives a plausible explanation of how DB cooper avoided being caught for so long (hint: he tried it again on got caught for that).
So would you finish the story please? Like what became of Vince Peterson? Did he leave his family and never return? Or what?

No one on earth wants this man caught, we’re glad he got the money!
He needs a lot more to sell this to a jury. If this is all you have, then you are about 5% there. Not YET worth the time to watch IMO.
Dan Gryder has already solved the D.B. Cooper mystery

Is there a part 2 to this video?
The Remington Crucible makes sense. For those who don't know. Remington had a plant / factory in Ithaca NY on the hill. Syracuse is about an hour from Ithaca.
Sure would like to see the rest of this.
Doing a night jump out of a 727 without at least night vision is pretty damn hardcore. Had to be a highly trained Army Special Forces.
I doubt he never planned thinking about landing in just any place.
Or crazy and extremely lucky.
and then he landed in a thick jungle with rough terrain during a cold and heavy rain. you have to see that part of Oregon to believe it. good luck getting out.
Db Cooper was a fake name and scapegoat. And most won't belive it but He Never jumped. The parachutes and some money were thrown out. The money was then handed to one of the passengers that got off the plane. Many in that plane including the pilot who was most likely a friend or knew "db cooper" were in the inside job. That's why no one was harmed not even grabbed, punched, or slapped it was well planned.
Well, we have nearly 99% positively ID'd "The Tie".
Now if we could just ID Dan... 🤔

Where are the other parts to this video?
Could those titanium particles have gotten on the tie when DB was moving around the stair case or the vacillating or the plane?
Once again the Simpsons were right, it’s Grimesy
Guy's wife has a yard sale and neck tie is sold to DB Cooper for 10 cents. Very nice, detailed work. I'd like to hear more about this
why is the video cut off? why wasn’t the speaker’s name mentioned in this video?
But what if he took the tie from somebody he knew or bought it second hand.
Great job solving nothing.
Is there another video where we can see the rest of the presentation? It just cuts off in the middle.
Where is the rest of the video?
First time here on the channel, keep us posted. Awesome work 💯
Legend has it, D B Cooper is still sky diving and hasn`t come down.
