It's the most legendary hijacking in aviation history and remains unsolved. The DB Cooper hijacking of an airliner in 1971 and his supposed parachute jump with $200,000 in cash has captivated Americans since it happened. But now the FBI has new information that might lead to solving the case. They say they have a lead on a new suspect.

FBI sources say they are in the process of testing fingerprints of an individual to see if they can match prints on a necktie and cigarette butts left behind in the hijacking itself. They're not saying if the suspect is still among the living, but one unidentified spokesperson said that the 'large majority of subjects we look into now are already deceased based on the timing.' Will we know who DB Cooper really was? It would be amazing to find out after 40 years.
