A little from the other side:

It was just a general question to the audience. I never spoke to Robert West.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to my question.

Just another building block of the deception/adjustment to tie trajectories/timing back to the SE 6th floor. Using the same concept from the previous posting should allow you to understand Shaneyfelt's testimony a little better. Remember too, the speed from said z161-166 now becomes 2.24mph because of retarded distances.

btw, Station# 381.3 = extant z218 approx. I'll fill in a little bit more from z207-station# 371.1 to 381.3 in a bit.

Yes, the camera was higher in the reenactment than the original. Why? I'm quite sure it was done intentionally. By May of 64 (among all the other prior reenactments) had they not ascertained Zapruder's camera height? Why? They had his physical position on the pedestal well established and Zapruder was still available for height sizing. Shaneyfelt surely knew the importance of this as he shot the reenactment from the pedestal using Z's camera. Where is the beautiful color reenactment footage shot by Shaneyfelt? It was only the president that was shot, I guess they could half-ass the reenactments. The StemmonsSign alterations were completed in "Notchville" Tennesee. "Raised up in his seat" - Enough to see, partial hands at the throat, above the sign??? I asked if West saw a version described in the previous sentence at approx extant Z208 ,which was then advanced to what is seen starting at approx extant Z226.

Four/Five extant frames after Robert West(Life Mag Investigation) surveys in a shot, we arrive at extant z212, which shows someone in the QueenMary reacting to something. The time period between West and the QueenMary reaction is where the extant sprocket hole images are missing. This gif might also help you with the SA Ready apparel fiasco.

Does this clone work for you with the blue lines being an equal distance apart? Making the assumption that an adult human head averages between 9.4 and 10"

Yes. JFK's was riding 10" higher in the reenactments measured from the street to his head top.

After the limo clears the StemmonsSign=Z232, I reduced it 22% to fit, when it was behind the sign at z206. The rotation applied in the gif is 3.13° CW which is what the Elm St slope(in degrees) is, at those extant frame locations.

If I were a matte artist, which I am not (although I did a lot of work with knockouts, same concept via the film route in graphic arts) and had to alter the rising action of JFK, I could probably eliminate the top half of the rise by opaquing/creating a mask to hide it. Viewing frame z206 from the previous posted gif, keep the following in mind as you watch JFK below the sign and the reenactment stand-in above the sign. Notice where the reenactment stand-in lands, in relationship to the mask (imo) on the original extant zfilm.

Allow me to introduce my reenactment, using the extant reenactment, along with the extant zfilm. Frame z212 is taken from the 6K version of a third generation(I believe)copy. z206 is a composite(layered opacity) which uses a frame from the reenactment film, shot, using Z's camera.

Hi David, Reasonable disagreements are fine, that’s encouragement for me to provide a more detailed explanation of the concept /alterations. I’ll continue posting on this thread moving forward. Beginning with: Credit John Costella PDF: Bill Newman (on the north side of Elm Street, near the Presidential limou­sine at the time of the shooting), November 24, 1963: “The car was pro­ceeding toward him and it seemed that the President’s arms went up and that he raised up in his seat and started to look around.” [FBI report: CE1432: 22H842] I'm getting the distinct impression that Robert West saw on the original Zfilm, that which Bill Newman describes two days later. The difference between them being: Where West plotted the reaction and where we see that reaction on the extant zfilm.

What do you think West saw on the Zfilm that caused him to create a first shot impact survey at approx extent z207? Would a JFK 10" elevation change make a difference in what he saw above the Stemmon's Sign?

Connally (in the hospital) describing being shot. As you watch this, notice the top side of his left hand and imagine the Zframe with that same area (except on the right hand) blood soaked. https://vimeo.com/793065745

From the west window, it would have looked like this:

Since I'm quite sure that a blind person didn't do any shooting, sometimes it helps to use the official documentation as a guide. For instance, the surveyed rifle height for extant z207 was 65.05ft from the TSBD base. Use that height, move the shooter's location to the TSBD west end connecting it to a plotted z223, use Shaw's 25° trajectory and I'd say Connally is a hit. Shaw was wise to the WC deception.

The SS started their re-enactment on Dec2, 1963 and ended on Dec4 with a plat created Dec 5th. They placed 3 pylons (which represented the limo front end) in the street. The following gif shows the SS agent putting a pylon down at what would be JFK’s z235 plotted position. When they filmed this from the snipers nest with the boxes in place, they realized it was impossible to view the limo and occupants looking over the box arrangement before extant z235. And, since the z207 survey had the rifle placed at 14.04” (incrementally higher as it moves further down Elm) above the window ledge, which I believe was approx 4” above the 10" window box, along with a bullet hole in JFK at 3.27ft above the pavement, a blind shot would have been in order. Keeping this in mind, go back and watch the segment I suggested, provided by Micah.

Matthew, Thank you for the link.

The flat line distance for the first shot measured by Robert West was 163.64ft. The flat line distance for extant z207 was 162.34ft So, at approx extant z208, West determined a first shot response. Referring to the initial gif, what are the odds that the Zfilm section missing the sprocket hole images would reside from extant z208-z211 with extant z212 (red box) showing somebody in the most awkward position(body orientation) as if they are reacting to what event?

But we know, according to official records, JFK's head height above the street was 52.78"= 4.398ft. You can't establish truthful trajectories using the same elevation adjustment, when body parts with different elevations were hit.

That segment includes the conclusion the SBT alignment would have worked down at extant z313 except for the correct Connally body size. The CE884 version never released for public consumption contained calculations (imo) supporting the video. In other words, the official elevation used in CE884 for JFK's height above the street was 3.27ft for all entries.
