Wait for it...

My favorite Wikipedia animation of all time! Quite literally a stick figure animation used to demonstrate how the infamous D.B. Cooper jumped from his hijacked 727 on November 24 1971.

Disappearance Edition II

Given that Judge Crater, Roanoke, and the Dyatlov Pass Incident are credibly solved, though not 100% provable, I'm leaving them out in favor of things ,ore mysterious. I almost left out Amelia Earhart, but the evidence there is sketchier.

On This Day In History

November 24th, 1971: D. B. Cooper parachutes off a plane in a thunderstorm with $200,000 in ransom money, never to be seen again.

New D.B Cooper theory: He didn't go anywhere. He's just been chillin at cruising altitude this whole time.

Re-watching Loki today (because I work from home and also have a problem) and the D.B. Cooper scene gets me EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

He's so fucking SUAVE and CHARMING and I MELT.

I desperately need more Doctor Who-style "actually it was ME at this famous historical mystery" stories from Loki.

Did he start the Dancing Plague as an anti-Footloose joke that got out of hand? Did he spend some time as Cleopatra and then vanish when things got dicey? I NEED MORE

Shows and movies love to use DB Cooper and put their own spin on the story, and rightfully so, it's a fun mystery! We don't know what happened, and the speculation is fun. Maybe he was just a dude in prison who then partook in a bonkers escape with two brothers, maybe he was an asgardian god who lost a bet to his brother. But I'll tell you what, nobody is ever going to top Leverage, because rather than use it as a quick gimmick, those writers took a fun folk legend and gave it a raw, beating heart.

"He did bring him to justice" is now burned into my brain. Only on this show can you get served a mystery, a buddy cop movie, a rom-com with the meet cute to end all meet cutes, and then have it all tied together by the statement that "justice" isn't a life spent in prison, but a life spent helping other people.

Was thinking about the Don Bluth Anastasia movie and y'know, we need more animated films about real historical figures whose fate was a mystery mixed with wizards and dark magic and other batshit fantasy themes. I wanna see D.B. Cooper robbing a plane with the aid of his magical talking sugar glider friend

So I was looking for something else, but I stumbled upon the knowledge that there's a DB Cooper episode of Leverage??? And I have to wait until my family catches up to Season 5 to watch it??

Snoopy either is DB Cooper or knows who DB Cooper is

Would like to thank Ryan and Shane for my better understanding of Loki series

Grunkle Stan was DB Cooper but a Bigfoot stole the money
