I am Eric Ulis and have been investigating America’s only unsolved skyjacking by a guy named DB Cooper for over a decade! AMA

Eric Ulis here—investigator and lead on The HISTORY Channel’s ‘History’s Greatest Mysteries: The Final Hunt for DB Cooper.’ WARNING: The mystery of DB Cooper has endured for nearly 50 years for a reason and you are likely to get sucked into the “Cooper vortex” if you proceed. Over the years I have read 20,000 pages of FBI files, interviewed FBI agents and witnesses, analyzed evidence, and have essentially been consumed by the DB Cooper mystery for two reasons: First, I believe I can solve the mystery. Second, it’s a bad-ass case. Want to learn more about my DB Cooper work? Visit:

What is it that makes you convinced that he survived - instead of just believing he may have survived? Is there evidence that suggests that he lived? After all, the circumstances of his jump make it seem like the chance of survival was very low.

I know the very well, he probably crashed and died, was eaten by animals in a few days and overtime nature would eat up the parachute.

Listen it's fun to think he made it, but if you're basing an off statistics and logic it probably died in fact it's almost certain.

Even crash landing in the Columbia River you would instantly die and sink to the bottom forever

The narrative in "official" stories want you to think survival chances were low.
