Coming to the realization that proper use of free will really does open up so much in life is such a profound benefit.
You can just do shit.

The leading theory is he was a CIA operative, because jumping from the rear stairs like that was something they did in the field.
And the leading theory was he survived, because there was a copycat crime, which worked until the guy was caught on the ground, with the cash.
It just gets crazier the deeper you go.

Damn, I saw some guy on YouTube last year going through the parachutes harnesses in a barn of a deceased suspect (with permission) and he found the chute while talking to the camera. Was just turning over over on vest at a time in a box and stopped and said “this is it, we found it.”
I think the tape said they turned it over to the FBI? Anyone with more info?

Huh.
Here’s a Popular Mechanics article that’s exactly one year old: A Secret Parachute in the FBI’s Possession May Have Finally Solved D.B. Cooper’s Identity
And here’s the FBI’s web page over it, which notes they diverted resources to other investigations in 2016, but specifically names McCoy as a suspect: D.B. Cooper Hijacking
As far as updates go? I only have sardonic comments about what the FBI is to these days. But I don’t think they are going to work on this one anytime soon.

Just think of all the crazy shit you might be able to pull off if you had cajones the size of cantaloupes.

It was obviously Tommy Wiseau, how else did he get the money to make his hot movie The Room.

I still think that this is the most entertaining theory. Tommy Wiseau does, too.
