The Man Who Accidentally Filmed the Kennedy Assassination

On November 22, 1963, the Assassination of John F. Kennedy changed history forever. But one man unknowingly captured the most important footage of that moment. Standing in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, a local dress manufacturer named Abraham Zapruder brought a small home movie camera to watch the presidential motorcade. Seconds later, he filmed something no one was meant to witness. Those 26 seconds—now known as the Zapruder Film—became the most analyzed footage in modern history. This is the true story of the ordinary man who accidentally documented the John F. Kennedy assassination… and the emotional toll it took on him afterward. A moment of curiosity. A camera in the right place. And history captured forever.
