 Single bullet theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
the bullet's passage near the spine slightly fractured the president's sixth cervical vertebra, C-6.
If a bullet exiting Kennedy's throat did not wound Connally, then another shooter behind both men (given the timing of the reactions in the Zapruder film) had to have fired a bullet that hit Connally.
The single bullet theory was parodied in a 1992 episode of the sitcom Seinfeld, in which baseball player (and guest star) Keith Hernandez allegedly spat a "magic loogie" at Kramer and Newman.

It is often called the "magic bullet" or the "pristine bullet." This essay shows that both these terms are false and highly misleading.
Supposedly, a bullet hitting "this low" could not exit the throat at the collar where the single bullet would have to.
If the throat wound couldn't have been the exit for a bullet that entered the back, then it was probably an entrance would from a frontal shot, which implies a shooter in front of the limo which implies conspiracy.

 TEN REASONS I REJECT THE SINGLE-BULLET THEORY
The bullets that were fired into the wrists of human cadavers emerged with significant damage to their noses.
Elementary anatomy indicated that the minimum lateral angle for the bullet to miss the transverse processes and emerge in the midline [of the throat] is 28 degrees; this is obviously impossible from Oswald's alleged firing position.
SBT defenders suggest the FBI untied and then retied the tie and that the retied knot shifted the nick's position, i.e., that before the tie was supposedly untied and retied the nick was originally on the left edge of the knot.

 Single Bullet Theory
A single Yankee bullet to the Hunley's front conning tower may have set off a chain of events that slowly sent the Confederate submarine to the bottom of the Atlantic 136 years ago.
One theory has held that the Hunley, too close to the Housatonic when its 90-pound charge detonated in the Union Sloop of Wars arsenal, could have sunk from concussion blasts that buckled the iron plates of the hull, allowing water in.
Another theory was that the Hunley successfully completed its mission only to sink after it was hit by the Union ship Canandaigua, coming to rescue the Housatonic's crew.

 The Shifting Sands Of The Single-Bullet Theory
According to the SBT, this bullet, which is allegedly the bullet labeled CE 399, did all this damage yet somehow emerged with all of its lands and grooves intact, with no damage to its nose, and with less than 4 grains of substance lost from its mass.
It's a theory that defies common sense, that ignores Gov. Connally's own clear testimony, that ignores the Zapruder film, and that is in conflict with the vast majority of the eyewitness descriptions of the shooting.
The dead giveaway of the fabrication that this is where the magical bullet must have exited, according to the official story, is the nonmagical, mute evidence of the slit on the left side.

 The JFK Assassination Single Bullet Theory
If the Single Bullet Theory is true, then Kennedy had to be hit at the same time, and again, detailed scrutiny of the film shows this was likely the case.
The chain of evidence for CE 399 was in fact intact, and the Warren Commission traced its possession from discovery by Tomlinson to analysis by the FBI.
His essay "The Case for a Bunched Jacket" shows that Kennedy's jacket was bunched in the majority of pictures of the motorcade in Dallas, and that Kennedy's posture at the time of the Single Bullet hit makes it overwhelmingly likely that the jacket was bunched at that moment.

 The scientific single-bullet theory
Since no fragments of lead were left there, presumably because the bullet was not tumbling enough to distort it and squeeze lead out the base and allow tiny fragments to be shorn off, this part of the track could not be tested by NAA.
If, however, the bullet entered some inches lower, as claimed for example by those who reason from the holes in the coat and shirt without accounting for bunching, the trajectory could be upward relative to the car, and the bullet might fly out without hitting Connally or the car.
But this damage was far too slight to have deflected the bullet significantly, and it was not even clear that the bullet actually struck the bone.

 Wecht, Specter joust on single-bullet theory
Wecht, for years, has been one of the most prominent critics of the theory, ridiculing it before audiences from coast to coast, contending that it obscures evidence that the wound in Kennedy's throat was an entry, not an exit wound, inflicted by a second gunman in front of the motorcade.
He was even more dismissive of Specter's most noted contribution to the report: "[the single-bullet theory] is an asinine, pseudo-scientific sham, at best, and, very possibly, a deliberate attempt to cover up the truth about what really happened," he wrote.
And while the two men are completely at odds on the core point of the single-bullet theory, Specter would concede some of the criticisms of Wecht and others about the work of the commission that he served as a young Philadelphia prosecutor.

 The Truly Amazing Single Bullet Theory   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The bullet rapidly descended toward Dallas, and specifically toward Dealy Plaza, entered a plumbing vent on the roof of the Texas School Book Depository, penetrated through the ceiling of the sixth floor, and ricocheted off the metal sighting device of a Mannlicher-Carcano rifle leaning against the wall near the south-east corner window.
