Speed of Motorcade/5 miles per Hour!!!

[Alex Hidell]

This is as simple as I can make this for you-I started counting at frame 153, the first shot, it missed, hit street behind limo, this is AFTER they have made turn onto Elm.From frame 153, first missed shot, to head shot at frame 313, it is almost exacly 80 feet.I did my measurement off a city map.Do the math, 80 feet in 10 seconds equates to 5.4 MPH.Realy, this is simple 7th grade level math.It can't possibly be confusing to you??????????????????My point is this- from the first missed shot to the head shot, the limo was averaging 5.4 MPH.

Alex,I am not trying to make light of your efforts, but the 80 feet figure has to be wrong. I have been to Dealey and counted the steps. Now, maybe you are thinking 80 yards, which would be 240 feet, which is closer to the number give or take. And average time for healthy human in the 40 yard dash is about 5.5 seconds. That would be faster than 10 miles per hour. The fastest human being has been clocked at over 25 mph. It maybe simple math, but we must have the correct distance and time to judge actual speed.Thanks,Kirk

Guys,I was as surprised by the results as you are.I went off a city map.I will check again but the lesson here is what we have all accepted for years as "fact" may not always be true.

Here ya go guys- math checks out- 5.4 MPH between frame 153 and frame 313.80 feet, almost exactly.Scary that the urban legend of 11 MPH has stood all these years.http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0viO-Dm52sM/S ... yPlaza.jpg

Alex quote: I will check again but the lesson here is what we have all accepted for years as "fact" may not always be true.No for me Alex the lesson learned is that you like to use the exclamation point & the question mark alot, Just in this thread alone !=6 & ? the big winner coming in at 37 times, You do speed things up a bit with ASAP but then follow it with the 3 letter word ( not ) spelled with 16 letters and later with another ( not ) with 14 letters. It feels like you are working at us instead of with us, I have avoided your threads because of this reason, How about easing up abit, You have some interesting points and some of us would like to read and comment on your opinions and theories instead of the !?.. This should be more helpful on 80ft of questions marks instead of 80ft from a city map.....WaynePS, Alex would you happen to be from the scam forum.
