      I have a feeling that secret was probably something both personal and shameful, and likely had nothing to do with this. I don't think being Dan Cooper is something you'd take to the grave which would *also* be weighing on your conscience. No one got hurt, after all.

      Possibly, although one important thing the video missed is that before it could be searched the revised drop zone people theorized after finding the Tina Bar money was damaged by the 1980 Mt St. Helens eruption. If there was evidence of Coopers fate there it was possibly destroyed.
      This however perfectly fits into my theory that Cooper was a fucking wizard and he caused it to erupt to hide the evidence after he heard the money was found.

    Honestly I am almost certain D.B Cooper is William J. Smith:
    - Had access to railroad flares and could have made a realistic looking fake bomb.
    - Was in the military and knew how to use a parachute.
    - He had excellent cursive penmanship. The note handed to the flight attendant was written in very good cursive.
    - He was excellent at tying knots. Could have easily tied the money to him with the parachute.
    - He was familiar with the seattle area through his friend Dan Clair.
    - Looks VERY similar to the sketches. (Skin color, hair color and eye color matching)
    - The age description matches (43 at the time)
    - The height description matches (5’10)
    - Knowledge about the railroads for a successful escape.
    - Perfect reason to do this and needed cash.
    - Had a friend in highschool who died in WW2 named Ira Dan Cooper.
    - He is believed to be the man who communicated with author Max Gunther in 1972 (Who wrote the book. DB Cooper: What really happened) claiming to be D.B. Cooper.
    There are too many connections for this to just be a coincidence.
    Unfortunately William J. Smith died in January of 2018 at 89.

      This is my favorite theory. For those of you wondering, this is a bit more than just a one line meme. Mainly the fact that people speculate about the origins of Tommy Wiseau (the guy from The Room), who seemingly came out of nowhere with a decent sum of money to produce a film. IIRC he has given several conflicting or strange remarks as to where he is from.
      Anyway, people wondering about what happened to DB Cooper and people wondering who Tommy Wiseau is eventually resulted in the pet theory that Tommy Wiseau is DB Cooper, which is absolute top tier headcanon

      Cigarettes. The brands was Raleigh filters. Raleighs were a mass market brand just like Camels or Winstons. Some people seem to think that it was an exotic brand. It wasn't but its market position was upscale male. Executives and secret agents smoked Raleighs. Major security measures came in long before the 9-11 attack. Passenger screening as it exists today was not started until after 2001 though. The red sticks in the attache case were designed to look like dynamite. It is widely believed that Cooper's bomb was fake. It is assumed that the name he purchased the ticket under, Dan Cooper, was fake but strictly speaking no absolute proof of that. You seriously need to eat your Wheaties.
