Who is sitting up in Zapruder @Z456?

[Steve Barber]

And you have some means of proving this theory of yours, of course? Or is this just another biased and bigoted opinion from a biased and bigoted fool?

"If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the coverup."

Are YOU part of the coverup?

 It's not a "theory", Prudhomme. The proof is in the film. The only biased, bigoted fool here is yourself.

[John Iacoletti]

You are also one of the few commentators who dismisses Jackie picking up a piece of skull or brain from the trunk of the car. After fifty years, even Pro LN articles and TV shows report this false factoid. The most widely believed false factoid of this assassination, in my opinion.

[Bob Prudhomme]

"I saw a part of his skull with hair on it lying in the seat."

So, I have always wondered what became of this piece of JFK's skull. Anyone?

Your analysis from 2003 still looks good today.

Clint Hill:  I jumped onto the left rear step of the Presidential automobile. Mrs. Kennedy shouted, ?They?ve shot his head off;? then turned and raised out of her seat as if she were reaching to her right rear toward the back of the car for something that had blown out.

But the Zapruder film shows nothing on the trunk of the limousine. We can see the individual fingers of Jackie?s white gloved fingers, but no visible piece of skull, no visible piece of brain, on the trunk. Nor does it show Jackie even pantomiming the picking up of something.

The Zapruder film trumps an eyewitness?s memory. Jackie did not pick something up off the trunk.

  Hi Joe, Thank you.  I appreciate your compliment and comments. 

 I have, for some time, been trying to make one of the GIF's of Mrs. Kennedy's actions from the moment she begins to rise from the seat and actions while her upper body is on the trunk lid.  I am unsuccessful at it.  One critic argues that she did "grab" a piece of brain that landed on the trunk lid.  I find this impossible to believe because as she pulls her right hand back after tumbling onto the trunk lid and landing on her left elbow/forearm, she pushes herself back up with the same hand the people claim she has head matter in.  It just doesn't add up.  Then there's the Altgens 7 photograph which shows her right hand flat against the surface of the trunk lid.  Had she retrieved a piece of brain with that hand, certainly she would have her hand cupping what she "grabbed", not smashing it against the trunk lid.   http://america.aljazeera.com/content/ajam/articles/2013/11/20/secret-service-

 Still, die-hard doubters refuse to accept the fact that she didn't "retrieve" anything.   Then there are the words of Clint Hill. He said different things regarding the actions of Mrs. Kennedy.  He told the WC that he "thought" he saw something "come off the back..." If he thought he saw something come off the back, then what he saw and what others are saying Mrs. Kennedy did are two different things. They say "she retrieved"  he said "she reached" , the film shows differently.  It's all in what we see in the film the moment her gloved hand meets the slick surface of the trunk lid. Her hand slides out from in front of her, she lands hard on her left elbow, she pulls her right hand back towards her and lifts herself back up, turns around to look behind her, and the rest is pretty clear.

That's right, Steve.  Mrs. Kennedy begins to get up and onto the trunk before she even looks back at it.

  Thumbs Up, Bill!     (I can't find the thumbs up icon, lol)
