No clue, but he should have done his homework before putting it out there for everyone to see. Unless it's a hoax of course :tongue3:

For the heck of it I looked up habits of skunks, and see that they normal roam only a few hundred acres. That being said, there are 640 acres to a square mile and I would assume that the skunk was in that area. I think it would be easy enough to mark off a square mile round your house and start there :dontknow:

I agree you look everywhere a Skunk can get in,
rope of areas till you have covered it all.

His update Vid shows a Bill with only Partial serial #

which also could be faked

It's less then half of a $20 so he could have
made it, & Returned the rest for a Replacement

He mentions a Lawyer Though, so He may have already
found it, Or it's just part of his
Dreams.

Intresting he Deleted part of his Vid Too "Oops" ?

Yeah, that more updates coming soon is pretty much a dead giveaway :laughing9:

I am thinking he did find the money, whether it's D.B. Copper's or not remains to be seen. I pretty sure that skunk didn't carry it back after a long talk with this clown :laughing7:

Jeff, and you say people shouldn't be assaulted... If this is a hoax, he needs a beating :laughing9:

I noticed that the update was from May 2011, I wonder if he found it and decided to keep his mouth shut or what? You would think if this was on the level there would have been some news stories about it being found.

If he did, he Can't Openley sell them,
Without the fed Declairing them real
and taking at least 90%

I would Definately call in the News & the Fed on this one.
and Insist both be Present

& No I wouldn't call a Lawyer, so he can take
90% of My cut.

Of course Everyone thinks Different

however unless the feds dropped the ball,

Lawyer of Not,

he would have received a visit & they would
have the bill for testing.

Unless of course when the feds arived,
he told them he was just messing around.

there is No law against being an Idiot on Youtube yet.

That signature on the $20 is from the 90's even though he is 99.99999% sure it is D.B. Cooper loot.

The partial signature seems to be that of Mary Ellen Withrow. She was Treasury Secretary from 1994-2001. I think it is not DB Cooper money.

You are Probably Correct

Although Close I'm not 100% sure.

This part is different unless it's the Blurring on the Vid Cover Copy of Tsec Sign 94.jpg

This guy was sittin around with a broken leg, got bored, and made up a silly little story.
I'm guessin his boyfriend left him and he was looking for some attention.
Saw a documentary on Cooper, he was a flight attendant, and landed safely.
After his death, His ...brother..or room mate I think, admitted knowing about it, even had a picture of him holding the briefcase.
Skunk cam......fularious !

What about the fact that skunks hunt at night and spend the day sleeping. --- Just my first thought.
