Exaggerated of course! All of these triangle people are the same height but if the first sits down he's going to look shorter than the other two. Seems like Cooper might have been more like our small torso triangle man and if he was slumping over the whole time... So what... I said it is less reliable.. It doesn't prove Cooper's actual height in the context of all the evidence. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not arguing the validity of yours to your own self, I am just a little put off by choosing so narrow a focus on what appears to me to be one of the areas least likely to achieve a positive result. It's...interesting to begin with and the fact that your two choices to back it up/argue for it are 1) being abrasive and 2) refusing to actually back anything up in an argument about how others are misusing facts is wild. And boring, in the end. How do you rationalize your assertion that people who are not privy to the hijacking are less reliable than those who are? When we get into unreliable witness testimony we are almost always talking about people who knew they were witness to a crime. After years of this,, I have no patience left for stupid arguments and the persistent disrespectful comments and especially people twisting my argument into something it isn't... and some are attacking me personally thinking that elevates their position.. they have done this for years because they don't have a rational argument. I am respectful to those who are respectful.. some aren't worthy. I have laid out the facts, you and others just ignore it in favour of your own opinion.. My argument is clear,, Cooper could be 5-9 or 5-11... based on the evidence. Yours is. under 5-10 is an outlier or dispositive... THAT is INSANE based on the evidence and a product of Ryan's influence. It is self evident that believing you are observing a hijacker would stick in your memory better than some random person in a crowd or served in a line of possibly hundreds..... and Tina, the only one who saw Cooper standing briefly in the dark knowing he was the hijacker had 5-10" as the lower bound... We don't know if she was still seated or face to face with him.. or how that went down.... a freaking 1/2" from 5-9.5",,, INSANE... Almost 10 witnesses had Hahneman at 5-11 or 6 feet standing and knowing he was a hijacker... So, this standing accuracy thing is complete BS... it is an assumption that fails in reality.. The FBI issued a memo to agents TO NOT ELIMINATE based on height to 5' 8".. So, once again my position matches the FBI but I am attacked... YES, all of you are wrong.. Stick to it... with that level of analysis you guys are going nowhere... fast Think for yourself.... don't follow these guys,, Edited 8 hours ago by FLYJACK Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NO, Martin D18... I don't really discuss guitar stuff here because it is a Cooper forum but the second one is now public... I found Neil Young's first guitar from high school, an orange 6120 Gretsch he sold in 1965 to go acoustic... He regretted it and always wanted it back.. he replaced it in Buffalo Springfield with another orange Gretsch,,, Randy gave him my number and he called me, I gave him all the details and proof, he obtained it within hours,,, He is playing Mr Soul on it for his current tour..
