Netflix is trying to remedy the thriller of D.B. Cooper in a real crime documentary sequence titled, D.B. Cooper: The place Are You?!. Cooper is the thriller man who hijacked a Northwest Airways passenger jet in November 1971 and escaped by leaping out of the aircraft with a parachute with $200,000, and he was by no means seen once more.
There are a number of documentaries which have been made about Cooper over time and other people have been attempting to resolve this thriller for the reason that hijacking occurred. All of the docs that I’ve watched over time just about simply give us extra of the identical. One of the current got here from HBO in 2020 titled The Thriller of D.B. Cooper. The query is, will this new doc sequence supply any new particulars?
The four-part sequence comes from Fulwell 73 Productions and director Marina Zenovich’s PMZ Footage. It seems at “the 50-year quest to seek out Cooper, whose identification stays one of many best mysteries of the twentieth century and the one unsolved case of air piracy in industrial aviation historical past.”
There have been a number of suspects within the case over time together with the chance that Cooper was a Boeing worker, that he was former WWII paratrooper Kenneth Peter Christiansen, former leather-based employee and Korean Struggle vet Lynn Doyle Cooper or leisure pilot and librarian Barbara Dayton, who underwent gender reassignment surgical procedure in 1969.
The FBI formally suspended the lively investigation in 2016 and all the proof, which incorporates three items of proof discovered on the aircraft – a clip-on tie, a mother-of-pearl tie clip and eight cigarette butts, is open to the general public.
The sequence options interviews with Cooper investigators and focuses on the ten-year quest by certainly one of them, Tom Colbert, “to show that he has discovered D.B. Cooper. Colbert, the writer of The Final Grasp Outlaw, has beforehand stated that he believes retired pilot and ex-convict Robert Rackstraw was Cooper.”
Zenovich stated in an announcement: “I’m excited to convey the D.B. Cooper story to the world. It’s an all-American journey with many weird twists and turns and I’m honored to have labored on it with such a world class inventive crew.”
Producer Leo Pearlman added, “Marina, P.G., Blake and EJ have produced a classy, unique and most significantly enjoyable sequence that Netflix viewers will actually need to dig into.”
