Clint Hill: I jumped onto the left rear step of the Presidential automobile. Mrs. Kennedy shouted, ?They?ve shot his head off;? then turned and raised out of her seat as if she were reaching to her right rear toward the back of the car for something that had blown out.
But the Zapruder film shows nothing on the trunk of the limousine. We can see the individual fingers of Jackie?s white gloved fingers, but no visible piece of skull, no visible piece of brain, on the trunk. Nor does it show Jackie even pantomiming the picking up of something.
The Zapruder film trumps an eyewitness?s memory. Jackie did not pick something up off the trunk.
Hi Joe, Thank you. I appreciate your compliment and comments.
I have, for some time, been trying to make one of the GIF's of Mrs. Kennedy's actions from the moment she begins to rise from the seat and actions while her upper body is on the trunk lid. I am unsuccessful at it. One critic argues that she did "grab" a piece of brain that landed on the trunk lid. I find this impossible to believe because as she pulls her right hand back after tumbling onto the trunk lid and landing on her left elbow/forearm, she pushes herself back up with the same hand the people claim she has head matter in. It just doesn't add up. Then there's the Altgens 7 photograph which shows her right hand flat against the surface of the trunk lid. Had she retrieved a piece of brain with that hand, certainly she would have her hand cupping what she "grabbed", not smashing it against the trunk lid.

Still, die-hard doubters refuse to accept the fact that she didn't "retrieve" anything. Then there are the words of Clint Hill. He said different things regarding the actions of Mrs. Kennedy. He told the WC that he "thought" he saw something "come off the back..." If he thought he saw something come off the back, then what he saw and what others are saying Mrs. Kennedy did are two different things. They say "she retrieved" he said "she reached" , the film shows differently. It's all in what we see in the film the moment her gloved hand meets the slick surface of the trunk lid. Her hand slides out from in front of her, she lands hard on her left elbow, she pulls her right hand back towards her and lifts herself back up, turns around to look behind her, and the rest is pretty clear.
