241. The Beyond Conspiracy clip is silly
Myers shows Kennedy's hands already coming up in frame 224 and you can also notice that Jackie is already starting to turn toward her husband.



And then Myers points out that "something happens between frame 223 and 224" That's when the bullet strikes he says. The Z-film is 18.3 frames per second. So Myers would like us to believe that JFK had already started reacting to the bullet before the bullet passed through him and into Connally, or at least simultaneously.

From Jackie's WC testimony:

Mrs. KENNEDY. No; I was looking this way, to the left, and I heard these terrible noises. You know. And my husband never made any sound. So I turned to the right. And all I remember is seeing my husband, he had this sort of quizzical look on his face, and his hand was up, it must have been his left hand.

Notice her already looking toward her husband at frame 221




So according to the Beyond conspiracy show we are supposed to believe that Jackie heard the sound of the shot and turned toward her husband BEFORE the bullet hit Connally. JFK reacted to the shot BEFORE it hit Connally. The bullet traveling at roughly 2000ft/s (maybe slowed down because it went through Kennedy) and sound traveling at 1128ft/s makes the Beyond conspiracy show seem a bit silly.

And as I pointed out in the video I posted

The video clearly shows that the recreation of the shot went through the Kennedy body back and out the chest. The Beyond Conspiracy actual video shows the hole out of the chest.
