Seems some guy from Minnesota, Lyle Christansen, is convinced that his
brother Kenny was D.B. Cooper. Kenny Christansen is in fact a dead
ringer for Cooper, was an army paratrooper, bought a house in Buckley,
WA, with cash that he never explained where it came from, and he worked
for Northwest Airlines. On his deathbed he started to tell Lyle that
there was something he had done that Lyle should know, but then he died.

Kenny Christansen died in 1994 of cancer. The house is now a sign shop.

Last I heard, some woman in Florida said she discovered the man she was
married to for 20 years was Cooper. Don't know what ever happened to
this story.
My guess is that he went into one of those lakes that dot the
countryside where he baled, got tangled up in the shrouds and drowned.
I think someone found some of the money in a stream bed some time ago.
This one will hang in there with some of the other unsolved mysteries of
our time.
Perhaps someday it will get solved :-)


There was a story about DB Cooper circulating at Binion's Golden
Horseshoe Casino in Las Vegas years ago. This was told to me by a
blackjack dealer in the casion, so it must be the absolute truth.

About 7 years after DB Cooper bailed from the 727, a man showed up
with two large briefcases at Binion's Golden Horseshoe Casino. At that
time, they had a policy were a customer could set his own table maximum
provided that his very first bet was for that maximum. The man took
$727,000 in cash out of one briefcase and placed it on the "Don't Pass" at
the craps table. The roll was 6-8-10-7. The man filled both briefcases
with $1,454,000 in cash, and the casino treated him to a limo to the
airport. He was never seen again in Las Vegas. They swear that the bills
were dirty and looked like they had previously been buried and that the man
was DB Cooper.
