Been obsessed with Kennedy assassination lately. Particularly the number of people in the car. Now, the footage most folks remember, it shows a four-seater car. You got the driver, front-seat passenger, JFK and his wife.
But look at the actual 'Zapruder' footage. It's a six-seater car, not four. There are two strangely forgettable guys between the driver and the Kennedys. I've quizzed co-workers, friends, even my old history teacher - NO ONE remembers it as a six-seater.
Here's where it gets crazy. Look up the 'SS-100-X'. That's the code for JFK's specially constructed limo. It's always been a six-seater. Has retractable jump seats for additional passengers.
So the question is - why do so many of us remember it wrong? Just faulty collective memory or is something else at play? I'm unaware of any widely broadcasted recreations, movies or myths that presented it as a four-seater. Open to discussion!
Man, I've been down this rabbit hole before. It's not just the car. There's a whole load of strange stuff about the assassination. Different angles of the shot, inconsistent witness accounts, hidden documents. Reality, as we're led to believe, is skewed. Stay woke, my dude!
