The original jumping skyjacker, Cooper boarded a Northwest Orient flight for Seattle on Thanksgiving Eve in 1971. Once aloft he threatened to blow up the plane and demanded $200,000 and four parachutes. After his demands were met, Cooper ordered the 727 to take off and then jumped from the rear of the plane somewhere over Washington state. Despite exhaustive searches, Cooper's body was never found and his whereabouts are unknown.

Extra credit: The hijacker actually called himself Dan Cooper; a law officer mistakenly described him to the press as "D.B." and the name stuck.
