Counting Pixels in the Zapruder film.

[Drew Phipps]

There is another anomaly involving Joe Brehm (the boy) and the Babushka Lady's coat. Examine these cropped versions of Zap Frames 277, 283, 289:







Each of these frames is taken less than 1 / 3 of a second apart, so the whole sequence takes just under a second. Joe Brehm has moved out from behind his father, Charles, WITHOUT moving his feet. While clapping. Some of the apparent movement is Charles shifting his weight from his right leg to his left, but that doesn't explain the placement of Joe's and Charles' feet. You might expect to see something like this is the camera was physically moving left with respect to the placed objects, but not standing still, panning from left to right.

Nor does it explain how Joe manages to drag a corner of the Babushka Lady's blueish coat with him, even though she is standing a considerable distance to the rear. The Babushka Lady's coat has done something strange, gone from nearly vertical in ZF 277 to an angle of 28 degrees off vertical in that same time frame.
