If I understand correctly the BOTTOM sprocket image comes the from the VERY NEXT FRAME in the film... which has been the argument AGAINST alteration... there would be breaks in this sprocket image that do not match the altered frames.... so, If Zapruder stopped his camera at Z132... the sprocket image at the bottom whould be virtually identical to z131 (which shows a portion of 132)... that is no cars, just the lone motorcycle and street... Since the camera stops at z132, and the bottom sprocket image comes from the very next frame... there should be no possible way that an image of the motorcade's cars would be in the sprocket area since the cars do not arrive for a few more seconds... turns the corner and Z supposeldy starts filming again. If the Zfilm continued thru 132 to say 140 before stopping, and we spliced the film at 132, there would still not be any cars in the sprocket area since z133 would have been virtually identical to z132. So WHY, if Z starts the film again at 133, are there cars in the lower Sprocket area of frame z132, from what SHOULD have been the very next frame, the original z133? Doesn't this mean that the film ran continuously thru the Elm turn and when spliced at z132/z133, we now see in z132 what would have been on the VERY NEXT FRAME AFTER THE SPLICE... that is the cars from the motorcade that could not have been on the original z132, since it had not arrived yet? I spliced the bottom of 132 into the frame of 133... the bottom sprocket image DEFINITELY comes from the NEWLY NUMBERED frame 133... which would have been 2-3 seconds - 30-40 frames after z132 (approx z170 if the film did not stop running) Doesn't this image of the cars on the motorcade in z132 lower sprocket area - from what would have been 30 or so frames LATER - prove the film was refilmed once the frames between 132 and 133 were removed?
