There’s been mention of this, but for those
not aware:
Special Agent John D. Ready, primary
protection for President Kennedy, stood on the right front running board of the
Secret Service follow-up car. His reports stated he stepped off, intending to go toward the President. “But he was immediately called back by Special Agent Emory
P. Roberts...” (Warren Report, p. 51.)
Their SS reports do not say exactly when this occurred. Neither was interviewed by the Warren
Commission.
However, Ready can actually
be seen briefly at the extreme right of the Orville Nix film. Nix’s camera filmed at 18.5 frames per
second. At 1.3 seconds after the fatal
head shot, he is still standing upright.
At 1.4 seconds he has begun to step down to the street. He ends his downward movement about 1.6
seconds (30 frames) after the head shot. He is then panned out of frame.
Ready can be seen in this
slo-mo of the Nix film from 0:44 through 1:02: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcXjpBFRS5A.
