Dino Brugioni claimed that he had seen a different version of the Zapruder film which included a large red mist over JFKs head, which lasted 2 to 3 frames, at the time of the fatal head shot. The Zapruder film as it stands only shows a red mist for 1 frame which is frame 313. Brugioni claimed that the version of the Zapruder film we have now shows a much shorter headshot sequence than the version he saw.

However Abraham Zapruder disproves such a claim. When Zapruder sold the rights of the  Zapruder film to LIFE magazine, he stipulated that frame 313 must never be published, a stipulation that LIFE honored. The fact that Zapruder stipulated that only 1 frame must not be published, and not 2-3 frames, is prima facia evidence that the gore of the headshot did not last longer than 1 frame.

That maybe makes sense to me although I think Zapruder was more upset about the Z-313 frame showing the head exploding open then the spray being shown. Perhaps both. And you can see some mist in Z-314. Or I do. I think the B&W version that Life showed doesn't show it.

Of course, there are conspiracists who say Zapruder was one of the conspirators.

The key observation for me by Brugioni was that the mist/spray that he recalls seeing came out of the TOP of or OVER JFK's head NOT the rear. No rear mist/explosion.

Here's Z-314 from Costella. Looks like mist/spray above JFK's head.

    The above assumes that Zapruder and Brugioni were viewing the same film under the same conditions. Brugioni viewed the Z Film at the NPIC over the course of an entire evening/early morning. And Brugioni repeatedly examined the film "5 Ways To Sunday". He also assembled "briefing boards" using still frame images from the Z Film he turned inside-out that night. The Zapruder viewing conditions? Wham-Bam, gotta have it Now, "and remember to pay the lady/man". Also, there is a chasm between "prima facie" and "Opinion".

There is mist in several frames' forwards then backwards.
