I just watched it, actually (anonymous IPs are very handy for us poor foreigners
). I found out about it from another site while looking for a copy of Paul Chambers' book
Head Shot.
There are several problems with that doc, though...

The part where the Jr. Ballistics guy discusses the fractures caused me to guffaw in disbelief. Even his own "evidence" shows that it is not possible to tell from which direction the fractures originate, since they are multiple paths to two points (let's get down with some
calculus of variations!!!!)... even then, after considering the botched autopsies (ahem...
paging Dr. Humes...), I don't believe those X-rays can be trusted.
But there ya go. As Papa Ballistics-master opined, "Not one of these books were written by someone who knows anything about ballistics", it can be equally applied to their reasoning regarding Physics.
But that bullet going through the wood
did surprise me...although, I have an inkling there is some flaw in the setup. For example, if they shot
into the longitudinal direction of the grain (i.e. a
long block of timber) how would that change the results?
They shot
perpendicularly into the grain of sequential blocks...this changes the
tensor matrix substantially, I suspect. But then again, it is
just wood, not like the skull/cadaver and goat tests performed in the 70s.
All in all, that doc was something of a misleading presentation...I've seen better, and it sounds like there are better ones to come. However, in consideration of how much evidence is either destroyed, missing, or tampered with,
and the amount of time (and people) that has passed, I don't know if anything truly "new" will ever come to light.
Too bad...perhaps in 40 years there will be 9/11 docs doing the same thing...Whitewash for the "official" story.
