[G#m] [N] You know, on November 24th, 1971, I was living in British Lordshire, and the big newspaper
headline that [E] evening was a [N] story about a man named, well, he signed his name, Dan Cooper,
or B.B. Cooper.
Do any of you remember that story?
He hijacked a plane in Portland, Oregon, and demanded $200,000 in 20-dollar bills and
two garbage cans.
And so they brought him the money.
He let all the passengers go, but kept the two captains, and the plane took off and
towards Seattle, Washington.
And in the middle of the precipitous Northwest woods, he jumped out of that plane with his
entire suite, $200,000 in 20-dollar bills.
And it's been 40 and a half years, and a million theories, but nobody ever knew who he was.
So, I'm going to tell you.
