Title: Foreground images in Zapruder... Spotter or gunman?
Post by: Jake Maxwell on September 30, 2025, 11:30:05 PM
Here is a foreground image of a man's head... It seems to look like a botched attempt to cover over several foreground images, blending them into the middle ground...
This one slipped through... and there are several frames with this same image... This is probably someone at the end of the wall area... preparing for the dirty deed...
Enjoy!

I'm seeing Elvis' head or shadows on a blurry image.  Keep up the good work.

Elvis? No... not into conspiracy theories... Cataract surgery might help... ;D

The image is pretty distinct... Not sure this has been seen before...
It does not show up with such distinction in most copies...
The original, and likely 2nd or 3rd generation copies, will show this more clearly...
The question is why is the rest of the body missing?
Is this a film cover-up gone bad?

There was something going on here...
These do not show up on most copies of Zapruder I've seen...

Another view... This is an LN myth-busting image... and suggests film-tampering and cover-up...

What in god's name are you going on about? Faces? Removed from the Zapruder film to cover up "spotters" and "shooter" ? This post wasn't meant as a joke, was it?

I take it you can't see it... sorry about that...
Everyone I've shown it to can see it...
There's enough information in the image to cause a little pause before jumping to conclusions...

No, there isn't... the Zapruder film was proven to be authentic nearly 30 years ago by Roland Zavada. You are truly wasting your time trying to spot anomalies in it.

Zavada’s analysis focused on the surviving film in the National Archives.
He could not fully verify that this is the unaltered camera original.
He was brought in by the ARRB to answer whether the film in the Archives was authentic. His mandate did not extend to fully investigating whether substitution had occurred earlier...


Nonetheless, the frames in this post alone speak for themselves...
There are partial facial images in the foreground of Zapruder...

   You can see all kinds of things in these 500,000's copy of the Zapruder Film. For instance, even that guy wearing the hard hat to the (L) looks skinny. I'll eat a bug if that guy had a 32" waist as pictured. And that hard hat of his was not greenish. You are looking at a copy of the Z Film that has been spindled, folded, and mutilated. You need to examine better source material.

Look again...
Outside of the original, you cannot find a better copy...
This is from the Sixth Floor Museum copy...
Fact: There are foreground images of faces on this copy of the Zapruder film... and probably on the original as well...
The images we are seeing are most likely the vestiges of cover-up artists failing to blend all that Zapruder picked up on his film into middle-ground images...

Here is a foreground image of a man's head... It seems to look like a botched attempt to cover over several foreground images, blending them into the middle ground...
This one slipped through... and there are several frames with this same image... This is probably someone at the end of the wall area... preparing for the dirty deed...
Enjoy!

What's really discouraging is that this KGB-approved thread is only seven days old and 892 people have viewed it.

Do you think a radioman, a spotter, or one of the many snipers was hiding under big/tall Gloria Calvery's plaid skirt?

  OK, if this is a Sixth Floor Museum copy, what are YOU doing to it? What we are looking at is far inferior to the Z Film displayed on "The Lost Bullet" (2011).

Pleased that you're able to see it...

Nothing done but to brighten the image to get the hidden face out of the shadows...
No... not an inferior copy... This is from the Sixth Floor Museum...

Here are two copies... the first with the hidden face in the shadows... the second brightened with more exposure and contrast...

   "Forget it, JAKE. It's Chinatown".  The Sixth Floor Museum being "Chinatown". Those images you are posting are extremely outdated and should Not be used to reach any conclusion. Try using other sources for your research material. Stay away from "Chinatown".

Nope... we've got a good copy here...
(And if the 6th Floor is Chinatown as you say, and they had recognized or seen these images, they would have expunged them already...) We've got a good copy here.

So.... why are there faces in the foreground of Zapruder?
