Your 312-321 nine-frame gif at official 18.3 fps translates to half second (9 frames/18.3 frames).
Plotting limo travel distance/speed using 156 inch wheelbase to guage photos:
A speed of 6.7 mph seems closer to the slowing described by the famous 59 of Palamara
Couple things about this gif...
It's only the 3 frames with 5 frame tweening to illustrate the overlay...
312 thru 321 is actually 10 frames since we start counting at the start of 312 and stop at the end of 321
The limo was moving away from zapruder at the time yet when you measure the 3d image on 2d film it becomes a streaight line... it's not.
So the limo moved a GREATER distance as it would comprise the hypotenuse with your straight line as one of the triangle's sides.
Yet in the end, your calc of 6.7mph is close enough to state that's not possible...
Muchmore shows he makes the jump from the front of the QM to the limo in ONE STEP... one left footed step and I believe HERE is a very key finding...
the limo HAD to be moving much slower than even 6mph for Hill to extend his left foot, land on the ground and NOT have the limo move away from him...
Furthermore, in every film/gif or muchmore there is a jump whereby the men on the steps and everyone else jerks forward a few frames yet I don't think there were frames there to remove....
I made another one here... I'm not sure, but it just seems to me something is very wrong at this moment... when the limo SHOULD be stopped yet is not, when Hill makes this amazing leap, when the QM falls behind, Hargis and buddy ride up past the back wheel, when the men on the other side look to their right and STOP, then supposedly take off... (McIntyre)
This is either when the limo is finally starting up again... or ??? This is also the spot that is described as both 4+65 feet and 4+95 feet in the legends....
How was 30 feet of travel and position removed at this point?
Couple forgotten notes
1- notice how the coats of Jean and Mary FREEZE during this time
2- Muchmore moves her camera quite a bit during that jump, I stabilized the gif but there is a significant movement of the camera and no concurrent blurring in the images....
That should not be possible either
