D. B. Cooper (aka Dan Cooper), around midnight on November 24 / 25, 1971, after receiving a ransom payout of US $200,000, jumped from the back of a Boeing 727 as it was flying over the Pacific Northwest of the United States, somewhere over the Cascade Mountains, possibly over Woodland, Washington.
His body was never found, and only $5,880 of the ransom has been recovered. The skyjacking continues to have an impact on popular culture, including references to or inspiration by Cooper in books, film, and music.
