“DB. Cooper” is a nickname the media gave to an unidentified man who hijacked a Boeing 727 in the airspace between Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington, on November 24, 1971. The brave, extremely calm, and polite man—as described by the crew-extorted $200,000, gave the crew very specific instructions about air speed, angle of the wings, etc., and then jumped out of the plane with bags full of money in what, in our humble opinion, might be the most impressive heist in history. Though a lot of the money was recovered, “D. B. Cooper” was never found or arrested.
