Jones was found in the Niagara River by the U.S. Coast Guard on June 2.
Detective Sgt. Brian Nisbet of the New York State Park Police says it's the same man who became the first person to survive an unprotected, intentional plunge over the falls in October 2003.
Nisbet says investigators believe Jones attempted to go over the falls inside a 3-meter ball on April 19. The empty ball was recovered by the Maid of the Mist tour boat.
Three others have survived unprotected plunges over the falls since Jones did it.
