D.B. Cooper: The $200,000 Disappearing Act

About this episode

On the night before Thanksgiving 1971, a man calling himself Dan Cooper hijacked a Northwest Orient Boeing 727, collected $200,000 in ransom, parachuted into a stormy Washington wilderness... and was never seen again. Fifty years of investigation, over a thousand suspects, and a single bundle of rotting bills are all that remain. This episode examines the science, the suspects, and the enduring question of whether D.B. Cooper beat the system entirely.
