Great Zapruder Film Hoax (eBook)

The Zapruder film has been described as "the most significant amateur recording of a news event in history." The 27-second "home movie" of the Kennedy assassination is often claimed to be bedrock fact, against which all theories of the assassination must be judged.Yet from the beginning disturbing questions have been raised. The Zapruder movie contradicts eyewitness evidence, photographic evidence, medical evidence, and ballistics evidence. The events depicted in the film even contradict the laws of physics.Mystery shrouds the film's history, including who developed it, who edited it by splicing and painting in additions, and how several alternate versions came into existence.The Great Zapruder Film Hoax presents the remarkable new findings of leading scientific and technical experts, rigorously tested and meticulously documented. These findings demonstrate beyond reasonable doubt that the Zapruder movie is, not merely touched up and altered, but wholly fabricated.

This is the first book to expose a crucial aspect of the cover-up of the JFK assassination conspiracy: the doctoring of the Zapruder film, allegedly a 27-second home movie shot by Abraham Zapruder in Dealey Plaza. The evidence for alteration of the Zapruder movie takes many forms, including inconsistencies with eyewitness testimony, discrepancies with other films and photographs, impossible movements within the time-frame of the movie, contradictions between the movie and the physical layout of Dealey Plaza, and the multiple versions of the movie itself. This book brings together all the leading authorities within the assassination research community, including David Healy, authority on technical processes of film production; Jack White, who for forty years has made a special study of the JFK assassination movies and photographs; John Costella, Ph.D., a physicist and engineer with a background in optics, the properties of light, and moving objects; and David W. Mantick, Ph.D., the foremost expert on the medical evidence in the JFK assassination.
