Why was it so shallow, and where did it come from? It's hard to believe that professional mechanics would be using faulty equipment. And to enter at an angle of 45 degrees it would have had to have been fired from a helicopter or a balloon. The only explanation I can think of is a ricochet. But the only obstruction I can see is the tree in front of the TSBD SE 6th floor window. I believe the limo doesn't clear the tree until Z 210. So to strike the tree it would have had to have been fired sometime prior. The president begins reacting to being hit around Z189 but his reaction has always seemed to me to be that of being hit in the throat from the front. He appears to me to be hit from behind at around Z224-25. He has been clutching at his throat, when his chin comes up his elbows flail outward and his body lurches forward. These seem to be the reactions to being struck in the back. However at this point the tree is no longer an obstruction. It's a conundrum, IMO.
