According to a new analysis,

[...] In this paper, simple one-dimensional dynamical models are uniquely applied to study in detail the fatal shot and the motion of the President's head observed in the film. Using known parameters from the crime scene, explicit force calculations are carried out for determining the projectile's retardation during tissue passage along with the resulting transfer of momentum and kinetic energy (KE). The computed instantaneous KE transfer within the soft tissue is found to be consistent with the formation of a temporary cavity associated with the observed explosion of the head, and subsequent quantitative examination of this phenomenon reveals two delayed forces at play in the backward motion of the President following impact. It is therefore found that the observed motions of President Kennedy in the film are physically consistent with a high-speed projectile impact from the rear of the motorcade, these resulting from an instantaneous forward impulse force, followed by delayed rearward recoil and neuromuscular forces.

janrinok: Be prepared for some detailed mathematical proofs, but well within the abilities of our community, and some interesting deductions.

    Sorry, but your knowledge of political history is at the alt-right level, as in everything you have said is an alternative to what is right. Amazing how easily some are taken in by Russian troll-farm agitprop! I bet you think Islam is a threat to the "West". I'll bet you think that blacks commit more crime than whites, because they are "black". I'll even bet you think that women are different than men, in areas like cognition, calculation, and rumination! Yep, another gun-loving, Schlitz-drinking, ammosexual, gamergating, wymen-hating, white-somethingist, complete and total looser, stupid enough to support a NY real estate developer, because he's "country" and "christian"! The stupid, it burns! Sorry I have nothing helpful to say to you, other than, "oh, noes, you're on to me!", and to insult you until you double and triple down and start doing stupid things like supporting Nazis.

    Whoops! Seems like I have triggered a mod-bombing by a Nazi lover! C'est la vie!
