The mystery of D.B. Cooper is one of the most famous cases in FBI history. The story hones in on November 24, 1971, when a man calling himself Dan Cooper hijacked a commercial airplane carrying 36 passengers and the flight crew. He demanded that they land and that he be provided with $200,000 in cash before they would take off again. In one of the strangest escape plans ever documented, once they were up in the air, D.B. Cooper jumped from the plane using two parachutes while holding onto the money, and was never seen again. The case has been turned over countless times, and to this day the full explanation as to who D.B. Cooper really was and where he went remains an unknown.
