Tonight on National Geographic at 9:00 EST there is a documentory on Skyjacking
. It is centering around DB Cooper ,one scene shows a square canopy landing at night. DB jumped a non -steerable 28 foot round . He also had a "Do not jump"training reserve stuffed with rags. They also have DNA to solve the mystery. It ought to be hilarious. record it so when you burst out laughing you can back up and do it again.It will be like the 3:58 second freefall in "Point Bleak"

You mean people can't just talk to each other in Freefall?

There is a rather lengthy DB Cooper thread in the "Skydiving History & Trivia" forum. You might want to check that out . . . or not.

Either way, please keep discussions surrounding the minutia of the DB Cooper case confined to that particular thread.

"But my uncle's sister's dead cousin said once that he was DB Cooper. I know that there is no surrounding evidence and that that it has been disprove a few times, but I believe it so everyone else is wrong..."

There ya go, that's over 2,000 posts in a thread summed up for you in a paragraph.

WOW, Simply "WOW" aren't we adults? can't we talk about things?

So if I say "DB Cooper, it can only be in that thread? Even though it is now a current event on TV?

We prefer you keep it confined to that thread simply because it's simpler for everyone involved. Rather than chasing down a million bits of data in a million threads, it's all in one place and the "experts" there can confirm, deny, debate any question or issue on it simply rather than having to check a bajillion different threads.

This works to everyone's advantage.

Maybe, they're just trying to be polite to you.

My first jump, I was talking to God in freefall. Lately, I just hear voices...

I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.

I think someone needs to go for a long ride on all the roads in the DEATH WOODS looking for that $194,000 from his motorbike. I think he and Jerry would hit it right off

There is no "merge" function for threads on this web site.
