It was a discombobulated circuitous eureka moment there at the end , but he finally clears it up by answering the obvious burning question....where the hell was entry wound on the front!??? Lol.. "hairline"...How could such a thing be missed...It's understandable given that the two first physicians were obsessed with the ABC method and missed the fact that his entire back skull was missing... BUT as the dust begins to settle you would think that 3-5 physicians might be able to confirm or be interested in glancing at a frontal hairline entry wound...geez What's most amazing about his story is the forensic pathologist being forcibly removed so they could scurry away with the President's body. That detail I have never heard...I don't even think Reiner covered that in his podcast. I think within my lifetime (born1968) the truth will finally be known. Put Bobby in office and he can nix this one finally for the American public...We were Ceasered..yep it sure is looking like it.
@@johnworsley9371Which shows you that even this great man was pressured to shroud the truth, or at least he felt fearful about blurting it out in an obvious way. To me there is enough now to know beyond all reasonable doubt that (1) it was a conspiracy. (2) If a conspiracy, then why the need for those having the power to cover it up? (3) One then concludes from (2), quite obviously, that those covering it up were involved. (4) They clearly don't want the public joining the dots. If you don't want to spend too much time, just look into the limo driver, Greer and how he applied the brakes (the brake lights coming on were caught on film) at the very worst possible moment, a few seconds before the headshot they were expecting, dude even turned around to check because obviously he was in charge of the 'means' keeping JFK in the kill zone. Of course once the first shot rang out they had to 'pull out all the stops' to finish him off or else the whole massive thing would have blown open. It was all or nothing, 'go for broke'.
You believe liars. Dr. Crenshaw told the truth years later in his book. The CIA did it. Meticulous planning. So many groups involved. So many shooters. Even Jackie shot her husband through the Lambchop puppet with a Derringer. Murderers!
I am always far more interested in the questions nobody asks. So many not asked questions??? Like: Why would you put a trachostomy into a dead person? He clearly would have been seen as dead on arrival, as I'm sure it took at least probably 5-10 minutes to get the president from the scene to the hospital, no vital signs? I'm sure there must have been alot of blood everywhere? Fixed pupils? Why would you carry out a autopsy on someone who clearly had their brains blown out?? I thought autopsys were for people when reason for death was undertermined? These seem to me as basic questions? I seriously doubt an autopsy was carried out, when no one "in the know" wanted any real answers, just a fascade. How can somebody not know these things within seeing a patient within 5 minutes?
Such a gentleman. So cordial and right to the point. I wish we could have thousands of doctors like him today. Quality men like this are a rare breed today.
Yes. And beautifully spoken. I guess heads weren't filled with so much rubbish back then, with the fast paced life and introduction of the internet and social media. And all else to distract.
@@rory7277 Two words. Social Media. That has really changed things. It's the Twitter Facebook & sadly RUclips.

@@seltaeb3302 "since Trump" - you were fine up until that point. I don't like all of what Trump said or did (he's not in office now, by the way) but the downhill slide really accelerated with the election of Barack Obama, in point of fact and the ensuing media rally to shut down any and all opinions that didn't praise him endlessly, 24/7. (And notice I didn't blame former President Obama for that, either, so please spare me the partisan/racial BS) It only got worse from there, and as social media became more and more prevalent in our lives.

I was in 5th grade in Ft. Wainwright, Alaska when our teacher made the announcement that Kennedy had been shot. I will turn 70 next month and I can honestly say that no other event in my lifetime affected me as much as this did. You could just feel the gloom and sadness everywhere. Thank you for your sincere and honest interview.
Why didn't he see the high back ENTRY wound on JFK ? Didn't even know it there ! Why give this Doctor the video time when the 3 Pathologists worked for many hours on the autopsy ? This Parkland Dr spent maybe 25 minutes with JFK that day !
@@ag4allgoodbecause he was too busy looking at the grapefruit sized hole in the back of his head that his brains were falling out of. The “autopsy” was a hoax, the photos were doctored, and Oswald was murdered so he couldn’t talk. Justice and even truth have never been served in this conspiracy and murder.
Seems incredible that the massive wound on the rear of the head wasn't noticed by the first two Doctors. The Doctor interviewed stated that JFK was shot from the front, causing the massive exit wound on the back of his head but this is the first time I heard an entry wound to the front of his head mentioned.
@@marge-bg4zn They did a tacheometry to open his air way. They didn't have time to examine JFK ! They are reporting what they saw. The 3 Pathologists doing the autopsy for over 8 hours know where the wounds came from & were they EXITED ! Its a different science then making a snap judgement without any evidence ! Read the frickin autopsy report ! The archives have it in there but nobody wants to READ what happened !
A piece of unforgettable history that this man and his peers participated in, the value of his experience and his recounting of this for the world to hear is a precious and irreplaceable interview, in particular because this brave man has now departed. Eye witnesses to this event are slowly disappearing and its incumbent to keep this alive for generations ahead to fully understand what happened that day in 1963 in Dallas.
The day this young man walked into work thinking just another long shift thinking maybe,tops, I might see a heart attack, or a car accident or how about a kid broken arm from bike crash unknowing that in the AM he was a young 2nd year resident and after 12 noon he was a full fledged chapter in American history, and it prob added 10-15 years to him instantly. Like goin ashore on D-Day 18 year old boys and if they made it through they were almost old men by the end of the day. Sobering
I think it’s very interesting/insightful to reflect back on what they were doing and how it would have been incredible to have the same interview with the Lincoln doctors and what they witnessed and personal thoughts and 1st hand medical opinions and observations. For the historical record. What a shame. That the same thing wasn’t done. I just thought that idea of the Lincoln comparison is great
@@midnitelitecompany Back part of his brain. You weren't there but this doctor was. The body can live with part of a brain for a little while. The brain he had left kept him breathing and his heart beating for a few minutes.
@@DDEENY I was there on an anniversary back in 2001. They had exhibits, where they showed actual photos of a dead JFK on a metal plank. The entire right side of his skull, about 3” in and across gone. Showing he was hit in the front top right side of his head. Shockingly there was little blood. Assuming it was post clean up. However without question a third of his brain wasn’t intact. Void of skull.
@@midnitelitecompany Thank you for your thoughtful comments which are appreciated. I strongly believe that JFK's head was struck by 2 bullets, rear and frontal, virtually simultaneously and the combination of them (and the frontal shot's bullet was an explosive bullet per confessed grassy knoll assassin James Files' account which is substantiated by others' conclusions) is what caused such catastrophic and fatal damage which caused the expulsion of about one-third of his brain (although accounts vary somewhat re: quantity). But what is undeniably troubling and at the same time compelling is the late Bethesda autopsy technician Paul O'Connor's sober account stating that JFK's body arrived at the morgue in a body bag contained in a metal shipping casket rather than the casket offloaded from Air Force One at Andrews Air Force Base, and that JFK's skull contained NO brain at all to speak of, in utter contradiction of the unanimous accounts of the Parkland Hospital staff. Paul O'Connor's account was never challenged that I'm aware, he'd never changed his story and the issue remains unresolved. And I've never heard any supporter of the Warren Commission's conclusions even attempt to challenge Paul O'Connor's statement. And BTW the attending Naval medical staff members at Bethesda including O'Connor were coerced under threat of court martial into signing statements agreeing never to divulge anything that they'd witnessed re: the JFK autopsy (although in time they eventually did). Who or what could ever explain that? Thank you again.
He is such a wonderful man. Such a gentleman and humble. Clearly this is something that he has remembered with such clarity because it was such a tragedy. I can’t imagine how horrific this was for all the ER staff at Parkland. Thank you sir for your account of this horrific death. Thank you to the interviewer as well. Asking the right questions and giving the doctor plenty of time to answer.
What Was More Horrific About Jfk Death Than Anyone Else Who Was Shot In The Head They Deal With This Everyday The Doctor Even Said It Didn't Change His Life. Jfk Was By No Means A Great Man Not Even A Good Man What Kind Of President Brings Prostitutes Into The White House Right Under The First Lady's Nose His Dad Told Him What He Could And Could Not Do He Was Ordered To Make Bobby Attorney General And He Wasn't Even A Attorney The Whole Family Was Crooked As A Dogs Hind Leg Jfk Didn't Want To Marry Jackie He Was In Love With Some Other Woman But His Daddy Said No She Was Not The First Lady Type So He Married Jackie But He Did Keep Seeing The Other Woman Jackie Could Care Less Because She Didn't Care About The President She Was In Love With The Money. Nice People
A great interview. He has been a thorn in the side of the Warren Report Apologists. He never wavered. A Great man and a true patriot. One of the inconvenient Witnesses for the Warren Report.
Well, he's not a witness. He had an OPINION. Kennedy's head was in a DOWNWARD POSITION, when the bullet struck. It sliced the top of his skull in half, but not his face. A frontal shot would've shattered his face and the bullet would not have landed in the car.
If you want to know exactly what happened in the ER room, listen to this man. Very intelligent, no forgotten information, and a straight to the point guy. He’s not an “old fart” out of his mind, government lackey.
Dr. Robert McClelland was the Doctor at Parkland and had an opinion about the shots coming from the front. But he couldn't have come to that conclusion by looking at Kennedy that day. The only evidence that's credible is the autopsy. And McClelland has changed his version of what happened over the years.
@@TELEVISIONARCHIVES Wrong again. That Golden Oldie Oswald Acted Alone has become as tiresome as a Trump Rant. He was there 18 inches away from the wound. Don't tell me what he did or didn't see.
He didn't choose to be such an integral part of this story - history chose him and he answered the call as best he could. After reading countless articles and interviews about Trauma Room One, I can't believe anyone would think these doctors at Parkland did anything but try all they could to save JFK.
Conspiracy!!! On all levels,that's why valuable information is locked away and won't be released till I pass and I was born in July 1964!!? But what's not kept secret is all the witnesses who had mysteriously passed away that knew valuable information!! You don't have to kill off everyone to get the message across! You come forward,say the wrong thing and you can be next!!!
I concur with your comment. Having been born in Dallas and growing up there (and being a young boy in 1963), I can say to those who might not know, that Parkland was then and continues to be, one of the premier trauma and emergency training centers in the U.S. The doctors on the faculty would have been at the very top of their profession in Texas. I don’t know of any serious criticism directed to the medical staff concerning their actions. Unfortunately, even with today’s advancements in trauma care, I don’t believe there would have been any chance to save the president’s life.
JFK was already gone before reaching the overpass in Dealey Plaza. As this doctor describes it, he viewed the back of the head and saw a 5- inch gaping wound. The agonal breathing means death. Never seen anyone come back from that in 32 years. The Parkland docs did try, though, and I give them points for that. The neurosurgeon called for the end of resuscitation efforts after seeing the amount of brain damage. I read where he said, "You got nothing to work with." He was right. Zero chance of surviving. Sad.
I appreciated this interview. The doctor answered the questions with sincerity, with no denial or vagueness. It is a remarkable piece of history that is captured for future generations to review. The ring exchange by Jackie is heartfelt….
@@marciahill5604 There was a description of that scene just rips your guts out in Dr. Charles Crenshaw's Book. He talked about JFK's great charisma even in death, and how it was hard to get the ring off after death and Jackie kissing him goodbye.
Also struck by his account of the Secret Service agents getting physical with the forensic pathologist, forcefully preventing any autopsy from being done in Dallas.
My father was a general practitioner who did house calls in the country. He got there driving, but sometimes he had to wait, by the side of the country road, to be picked up by the husband who would arrive by skydoo in the middle of the night, because in Quebec (Canada) where we lived, it snowed a lot in those days during Winter. The husband would take my father to the house to deliver the baby. He was my hero, a humble and caring doctor/man, like Dr. McClelland.
It's pretty incredible listening to how SHARP this man still is... It's crazy to think about the fact that he can still recall SO much, in such vivid detail... May he RIP🙏
I was a little over 4 years old when it happened. It’s one of my earliest memories I remember my mom crying and I was very upset about that then she told me that the president died.this interview is incredible. There is an evil in our government. A real evil presence .it exposed itself that day and has gained strength ever since . Oswald my dago ass.Pray everyone with all you have .
My Dad came home early from work that day trying to tell me between tears that the president was shot and killed I was only 5 years old, after my dad turned the TV on it seemed like all the adults were in tears! Something I will never forget but my five year year old mind couldn't grasp why adults were crying across America for somebody they never met or knew!
His memory is so good because horrible things impress us deeply. I don't remember what happened at school that morning, but I recall every word said, every action done, after we found out about the assassination. This was a remarkable interview, well done by the questioner and the doctor.
@@neuralmute yea its very important because so much of today is because of things that took place all of those yesterdays ago...and as the seniors among us pass on...so does the understanding of how things actually got done in times of need
@@wizz6648 You can rest assured that at least some of us cynical GenXers have learned the lessons of our elders well, know the rhythm of history, know how to live without a phone, and are ready to keep learning as we teach the next generations, and try to help them live in this mad, mad world.
I was 13 that day, and remember it like it was yesterday. Today, I'm a physician, Internal Medicine, not Surgery, and I have some knowledge of the state of medicine in the early '60s. This account is as horrifying as the event itself. A five inch hole blown out of the man's head? Incomprehensible. His (severed) cerebellum fell out of the wound onto the cart? Those kids were flying on adrenaline and pure instinct, putting in an ET tube and starting a trache. Things had to have been spinning so fast they never even took a full look at Kennedy. Dr McClelland had to have realized within microseconds that there was no possibility of salvaging the man. Fifty nine years later, I still hope the truth eventually comes out as to who did it, who ordered it, and why, no matter how catastrophic those facts may be. RIP Mr Kennedy. With all his faults, he is probably the last president we as a nation trusted and had faith in. As I tell my now adult kids, the 1960s were really, really bad years.
David. President Trump is the last President I trusted. They had a very good look at JFK. They examined the head would thoroughly! How else would they know the cerebellum was falling out of the wound? How else would they describe the head wound being in the right rear and about 5-6 inches in diameter? Of course they examined him. Who are you trying to fool?
There is an American-Korean doctor who famously said: Internal Medicine doctors know everything and do nothing. Surgeons know nothing and do everything. ER doctors know everything and do everything. My father's inoperable 2 inch anaplastic astrocytoma (which was only a couple of DNA expression away from GBM) had significantly regressed after changing his diet regimen drastically. The malignant tumor located in his thalamus nearly disappeared, in fact. I went to a few of the most prominent neurosurgeons over the years to double check with their view on this recovery. While they wouldn't medically validate the diet as the main cause of the medical miracle, they encouraged us on (though indirect). While I was studying to save my father, I read a lot (I consume information fast) and I met dozens of brain cancer patients and watched them closely. I saw their MRI scans and monitored their clinical conditions up close. There are 2 other survivors who tried my father's diet and they still share their MRI scans with me. Every time I comment on their scans, they say their neurosurgeon also said the same thing (Ex. necrosis diagnose - it is more complicated than just spotting a dark spot. There are over 1000 pictures as you know and there are 3 doctors analyzing it together, neurosurgeon, oncologist and radiologist). I met many doctors (internal medicine, surgeon, family medicine as well as neurosurgeon and biologist who studies brain) and realized brain is something of "the unknown world" even to them. Brain is amazing. Even the most experienced neurosurgeon performing the most sophisticated awake craniotomy, can't guarantee anything because it is up to the patient. I say this to you because you are a doctor who do not believe other doctor's testimony (though it is not your specialty). Don't you have incidents that you gather information and make decisions in microseconds and remember all accounts of it later? I have many of them. Doctors I know didn't jump to dismiss other doctors unless they were trying to make sales of chemotherapy drugs which makes me question if you are dismissing this doctor for your belief in conspiracy theory. I work in a leading tech sector. I value everyone's medical experiences and testimonies because innovations come from observations. I also studied about history of medicine and how clinical test began back in victorian era by (by then) wealthy pharmaceuticals. So in that context, I'd like to encourage you to channel your doubts in other doctors into making your own medical innovation instead. A neurosurgeon could claim that this video is absurd and even that would be his own opinion based on his own experience. They do their own things a bit when it comes to brain just like some of internal medicine doctor may do.
I was born in the 70's so I don't know why you couldn't trust people in positions of authority. My parents never said anything derogatory about hippies. As a child, I was innately afraid of them. Like you would be afraid of a dog with rabies. I was about 3 or 4 then. We're we fighting a cold war? With the missle crisis. If you want an account of the man behind closed doors, I would read Mimi Alford's book. Believe it she's telling the truth, because there are other women who were aides at the WH who corroborate her story. I believe she's suffering from Stockholm syndrome. JFK was also sleeping with a Russian spy.
This is a very important video. Dr. McClelland was a very fine man of integrity and honesty. I believe every word he said. I wonder if the Warren Commission members interviewed him, and if not why not?
Shock... It was hard enough for me to have a doctor tell me my brother had died. I can't imagine being in a scenario like Mrs Kennedy was forced to witness during that last half hour...
@@Duneswalker Well Thank You. I had his car which left him with his motorcycle to get round on. Because the headlight had an electrical issue, a car-full of young people on the way to a party, (it was graduation time at their high school), that driver claimed he couldn't tell how close my brother was to him. The kid crossed the center line & they hit head on. So even though that happened years ago, on this last Thanksgiving Day, my sister called me from Canada, to reminded me that his death was all my fault... Evidentially she's going through something in order to make a comment like that to me.... Thank you again for the Prayers... That's something that we can't get too much of...
@@montydaniels1054 Mr.Daniels, his death was not your fault. Maybe she will realize the truth one day. You must forgive her. She can't see perhaps because of her pain, or who knows. You are correct. Keep your head up. God loves you.💚
@@Therantguyyeazy Agree the back of JFK's head was gone. He was dead. The tracheotomy further cut open the entry hole of one of the bullet wounds. How do we know it was an entry hole? Because bullet entry wounds are the size of the bullet when the bullet enters the body. Exit wounds are large like the back of JFK's head wound. Of course this would mean JFK was shot from the front ruining the myth that Oswald was the lone gunman who killed JFK with a shot from the rear.
I applaud the Doctors efforts. I imagine seeing something so horrendous would forever stay with you. I just keep thinking of poor Jackie, sitting there so meek and quiet awaiting news on her husband. So incredibly sad.
And handing the doctors and nurses over the piece of brain and skull she had grasped from the back end of the vehicle... she'd held onto it all the way to the hospital. I believe, I could be wrong.
@@persephone2706 No, you’re not wrong. She did indeed have parts of her husband’s brain tissue cupped in her hands. So incredibly awful and tragic. She carried herself in public with such poise and dignity in all the days that followed, and truly helped the Nation in its grief, leading by example. God only knows how it was for her in private. She was a rock for Bobby Kennedy during that time too, who was completely devastated and broken after his brother’s murder. She suffered many tragedies in her life, including the loss of their newborn son just three months prior. So very sad. And still is to this day. 😔 JFK was one of the greats, IMO. ❤️🌹
when asked if she needed to change her bloody clothes, for swearing in of Johnson, she replied "no, I want them to see what they have done"...Jackie was brave & strong...
This is A GREAT VIDEO, this Doctor was a GREAT Doctor and has the Memory so GREAT. The world needs more Doctors like him. He is kind and professional and to be involved with great historical events is amazing how he lived and did all he could and remember everything.
27 minutes 50 second The doctor says the bullet hit JFK from the "front"... shot from the picket fence. I looked at a frame by frame shot of the Zapruder film and quite clearly and unambiguously and by Newtons Laws of force the splatter moves forward and so does JFK's head slightly ...quite definitely the bullet entered the "Back" of the head.
@@daveb1149 You think a bullet traveling 2500 to 3000 feet per second is not going to drive the head back and to the left? If he was hit in the rear of the head JFK would have been slammed into the seat in front of him.
@@vernpascal1531 Unfortunately Vern you need to read and FULLY understand Newtons laws of momentum to fully get what happened with the head shot. I understand fully what happened and so does the Warren commission because it was explained to them by a mathematician. One further very important point to note....JFK was wearing a steel back brace and he could NOT bend forward even if he was hit in the back of the head with a sledgehammer... Now please stop writing to me with your stupid uneducated ideas and theories and get a decent fucking education.
He was the ER doctor when I visited the ER at Parkland after a motorcycle mishap in 1968 while visiting family in Dallas. I was 13 years old and had rode a trail bike through a barbed wire fence.
What a gentleman and grateful of his information sharing before his passing. Impressive man in that I can barely recall what I had for breakfast let alone what a virtual stranger said to me in a state of panic decades ago.
ShaldonO8 I'm sure you too could recall something so dramatic and would remember every bit that happened or was said in those minutes. It was the president after all!
Dr. R McCelland testimony and has always been consistent throughout the years, you can only admire someone who's been attempting to tell the truth about what really happened, RIP Dr.
Try to imagine being faced with such a dramatic and obviously historical event right out of the blue. The man went to work with thoughts of the normal and in the blink of his eye, he was thrust into the middle of the most calamitous event imaginable. He recounts perfectly the rock-solid professionalism that was so prevalent then and still so needed now. Rest in Peace.
Of course he’s telling the truth, he’s speaking from memory he’s not thinking as one would be if they.were constructing a false story. The man is a humble, decent person who would find great difficulty be dishonest. He’s lived too long to change his character no matter how much he is pushed
Memory is a funny thing. Some events are imprinted so deeply that you can replay it as if it were on film. Like any film, what you see is your perspective, your impression, your comprehension, your truth. Each person involved will remember things differently. Time changes perspective, things known long after the event might slightly affect the retelling, however it is still your truth.
@@pamb5186 simple - three people simultaneously witness an event, all three will tell you a different story. Someone who is short stature might describe another as very tall. Someone tall may describe the same person as being average height. "Their truth" means that they are telling the truth as they see and believe it to be.
@@pamb5186 opinion is more about emotional response, how you feel about something. The truth, in this sort of situation, involves perception. A few years ago, this dress went viral. People saw it as being either black and blue or white and gold. Whatever colors you saw, both answers would be true. I understand what you mean by only one truth, something along the lines of proven (scientific) fact. Really, this is just about words, meanings, nuances, definitions... Interpretation... Really confuse things we can talk about medical and legal terminology in the mix. Even cultural differences, like American English versus British English. ..
@@pamb5186 oh - truth or lie? Personally, I feel lying is a grave offense. I would be lying if I told you that I don't lie. However, I very rarely ever lie. Truth is something I value, very much. Someone who is mistaken, can still be honest. The short and tall people, they were not lying.
One of the most interesting interviews I've seen, Dr McClelland's account of the day and the presidents injuries is remarkable. I thank him for this piece of history that will forever remain unresolved.
The evidence shows that both shots came from the rear and that Oswald alone was responsible for the murder. Therefore you can't say this piece of history is unresolved. Only among conspiracy nutbars is there still an open question. I used to be one of them (tho I wasn't hard core). But I changed my mind after a reexamination of the actual evidence that's available to the public.
@@brucemacmillan7128 How did Oswald shoot and the bullet went around the corner. The word CONSPIRACY means a group of people who INTEND danger or HARM to others. The evil ones added theory to conspiracies to cast doubts on the truth so that people will continue to believe lies.
@@estherkeeling777 The lies are those that project their own paranoia in the form of conspiracy nonsense that is based on nothing but supposition and conjecture. It is based on ideas that would require everybody and their brother's uncle's dog to be in on the conspiracy. That's just bs. Also, Oswald's first bullet did not go 'around a corner'. You are basing that idea, again, on misinformation and lies that are not based on the actual trajectory of the bullet and the position of Kennedy in the back of the limo.
@@brucemacmillan7128 Absolutely untrue Kennedy was shot from more than one direction. Go read the doctors account of what happened. They removed frames from Abraham Zaputers filming of the assassination.. Oswald himself stated that they used him as a patsy and he said they beat himThey assassinated Oswald to keep him from talking. Apparently you doi not realize how evil many of the rulers in this world are. Look at how many go ernments are forcing people to go ing with homosexuality murdering babies. Telling men they can go In women's bathrooms. Destroying peoples minds about their country so that they can destroy this system. Oswald could not shoot from the front and the back. His autopsy was changed. When he was shot from the back his head went forward when he was shot from the front his head went backwards. Bullets do not travel like that. They sealed the information regarding Kennedys death for 50 years you really think that was for no reason? There is a film somewhere that gives the correct account on what really happened. The doctor STATED THAT HE WAS GIVEN A DIFFERENT VERSION OF THE AUTOPSY AND WAS THREATENED. At least two doctors agreed that he was shot from the front as well and the back portion of his head was gone.on the right side. Even witnessesse pointed to different directions when questioned regarding the shots.

"Is there anything I didn't ask which I should have?" - Aside from a thoroughly-riveting recount from Dr. McClelland, the interviewer is impressive, as is the interview, in general. Most major media outlets would have run this as an over-produced drama, complete with suspenseful music in the background, and a baritone or bass-toned narrator speaking in a foreboding voice, simply narrating a show, as opposed to interviewing a primary source and letting them speak without distractions.
What a total gentleman Dr.McClelland is. I wish the politicians that run our country had half the integrity this man has. What a wonderful country we would live in if they did.
I listened to this and tried to imagine these people, and their last moments with JFK. I got tears in my eyes understanding, what it must have been like for Jackie. Simply horrible, and than the silence. The not being able to interact anymore. Being lonely in a full room. Is sad, I understand. For me John F. is one of my big examples. R.I.P. and strength to all. Thank you for uploading this part of the story. Thank you doc.
To incorruptus, u want to cry, 60 ,yrs later? Cry for Marilyn who was killed by Bobby Kennedy and JFk gave her to Bobby to have sex with her after he was thru with her. Also JFK had sex with a 19yr old intern. Classy to you?
It is amazing that with that head wound, he was initially still breathing and had normal cardiac activity (I had always assumed he was DOA upon entering Parkland).
He was doa._. One doctor stated there was barely a hand full of jfks brain. 1bleeding out back wound. 2 bleeding out throat wound . 3 bleeding out from hole in head. 4, 5 min to parkland bleeding out._. Dead as a vegetable with no brain to function anything . Then. 1 doctor preforms a un necessary trachyotomy._. Why? He lies about the shooting. He lies about the throat trachyotomy .
@@saskoilersfan To cut his throat up more..to mess up the narrative. With that much brain matter lost. No function of heart or any vital organs. The body goes into shut down. Even before that, that much blood loss and brain wound...cardiac arrest. But. Really one needs to know exactly where the brain matter was missing from. As I have seen people breath on their own with half their brain missing from certain parts. And survive and go on living with a "helmet" til cranial restoration is performed and set. If it was brain matter not controlling breathing or central nervous system. It can be done. I do believe Dr McClellan. He is not lying. But then I don't believe all. As he could've been permitted to state the obvious part that we are all questioning. And 'what are we going to do about it kinda thing'. I mean, he spoke all this close to his passing.. Either way it was on orders to kill and he was never going to survive back at the hospital..no matter how many Doctors. We don't know who the shooters were. But we know who made the kill order.✌

@@johnsmith1474 He was there and saw the wound in the back of JFK's head as did two other doctors. I'm more trusting of medical people with no political stance reporting as eyewitnesses on what they observed. "His truth" carries more weight than the BS of the Warren Commission IMO.
@@ktcarl Exactly. McClelland was only 18 inches away and looked with a flashlight into the wound, for some 10 minutes, so being a highly intelligent trained Professional there is no way he could be wrong about that.
Wonderful interview of a great man and physician, and an honest one, too. All of us who lived through that time, and those of us who learn of it now or in the future, will benefit greatly from this man's perspective and intimate knowledge -- of both the treatment, and the description, of President Kennedy and his wounds. Thank you.
I find it absolutely amazing that Kennedy had a steady heart beat and was doing agonal respirations despite having his brain(s) seep out from a "massive head wound". I was oh so confused beforehand when I heard that doctors tried to resuscitate him, given the obvious. But apparently, they didn't know the extent of the trauma. Again, Kennedy's condition upon arrival to the hospital was simply astonishing, considering his injuries. Bless this man for telling it like it is, unlike those that conformed to the Warren Commission.
way to go bro@..You're right of course. He was essentially dead the second that coup de gras struck FROM THE FRONT. He only had the most basic autonomous functioning of his heart and lungs (for circulation and respiration) due to the fact that his medulla remained intact with its signaling activity to the heart and lungs. More biological machine than human after that. Even with today's medical advances the best they could do is keep him "alive" by artificial means and even then only if immediately attended to, but it seems he would have died either way. We all know the last rites were performed well after he expired (as if they matter anyway...imo...and I grew up Roman Catholic).
Integrity refutes all else. Dr McClelland’s training, education, and family culture and heritage, and in small-town, even east Texas, prepared him unawares for this event as fully as any in this country, or anywhere else, could. Seeing we had such as him and the thorough competence is such as of him and those with whom he served reassures what this country has produced and perhaps still does.
Clearly an honest man. When the Secret Service commandeered Kennedy's body, the medical staff at Parkland resisted noting that Texas law required an autopsy be performed for any homicide. The Secret Service made a "deal" with them stating that coincidentally a military physician was at hand to accompany the body back to DC where an autopsy would be performed ASAP. The Parkland staff relented given the condition that the body would be accompanied at all times by the military doctor.
There was nothing coincidental about Admiral Burkley's presence - he was the personal physician of President Kennedy (as well as LBJ, and iirc was the physician at Camp David during the Eisenhower administration as well) and had traveled with President Kennedy. JFK's fairly complicated medical situation/history was the reason that his personal physician traveled with him; despite his young age, for a President, JFK's health was always a bit precarious.
@@tomservo5347 the Federal authorities had no jurisdiction over the case. There was no Federal law regarding the murder of a president in 1963. Only the State of Texas had legal jurisdiction over the case. The body should not have been removed from Dallas County until a full forensic autopsy had been performed by the Medical Examiner's office.
Dr. McClelland and all the rest were the best of the best. They were all dedicated, compassionate and great Doctors and the President couldnt have had any better in the world than these knowledgable surgeons. In my eyes they were all heros and wll go down in history as such. RIP Dr. Mac !
I just wish the interviewer would have asked him the question that was begging to be asked of the MD whom stood 18 inches or so above the president's head. Dr McClelland with your vantage point and your professional training and knowledge of human anatomy, did you see an entry wound to or towards the front part of the president's head which ostensibly led to the 5 inch exit to the rear. If anybody would see it, it would have been Dr McClelland, no? No one can disagree with these MD's as to what they saw and parts of the body they describe, its their profession, they know. For him not to be asked that question is ridiculous. Did any of the other MD's refer to a visible front entry wound to the presidents head?
@@BHeisler59 very good question. Here's the list of those at both Hospitals who saw an entrance wound in the right temple region1. Dr. Charles Crenshaw Parkland Hospital 2. Autopsy Assistant James Jenkins Bethesda Hospital 3. X-Ray Tech Jerrol Custer Bethesda Hospital 4. Dr. Gene Akin Parkland Hospital 5. Officer Of The Day Dennis David Bethesda from unseen still picture.
@@BHeisler59 if you can still find the full uncut Evidence of Revision his earlier testimony and statements are in it, confirming wound of entry at the front. Ditto other first responding doctors.
@@BHeisler59 I've read extensively about the assassination. The only account I have come across that gives a reliable description of an entry wound from the front is from the priest who gave JFK last rites. He said as leaned down to give the rites he saw a small hole/wound that looked like a powder burn in his right temple. Although it may seem counter intuitive- but none of the doctors really examined jfk for wounds. They were laser focused on life saving procedures and the back of his head- no one was looking for an entry wound. And, once they pronounced he died, they pretty much left the room.
President, with the massive headwound, was brain dead soon after he took the head shot. The fact that he was breathing and had a heartbeat for a few minutes, was just other functions that had not caught up to brain death. Truly horrible situation. This Dr. tells a very poignant story in a very respectful way.
I have seen similar situations-the patient has died from extensive head trauma (motorcycle vs guardrail, no helmet), but was still “breathing,” even after the doc called it and the ET tube was disconnected from the vent. Your brain stem can send erratic impulses to the diaphragm to initiate the mechanisms of breathing, but the parts of the guy who made him who he was, that was still on the guardrail. He wiped out right in front of two Paramedics coming back from a call, they were out of the truck and trying to save him within probably 30 seconds, but no helmet, the guy never had a chance (not to mention all the orthopedic injuries, and abdominal injuries). The paramedic (Iraqi War vet), just kept saying, “we got there too soon.” Meaning, no one could save the guy’s life, we just prolonged his death. Every two minutes, he would take a guppy breath, all while the open hole where the right hemisphere should have been was an open cavity with stuffed with sterile dressings to keep what was left in there from tumbling out onto gurney when we put him in a body bag. There are days where nursing is great, and there are days where it just stinks. Everybody in that room felt so helpless, waiting for the brain stem to wind down, and this was a stranger off the interstate who wiped out, not someone any of us knew, not a beloved President. Finally, the head nurse leaned over and told the guy it was okay to let go, he hadn’t hurt anyone when he wiped out, and if he heard someone calling his name, it was ok to go to them. He never took another breath.
@@bwktlcn Thank youi for this honest and very pertinent story that really parallels the wounds that the president had, and how you portrayed that, in your profession, you don't deal with presidents, but real people that also have souls and are equally important. Thank you.
Of course he is telling the truth,which shows the official story is impossible! If you listen to the asshole dishonest Lone nutters then you can't believe Medical Doctors,X-Ray Tech's,Radiologists, Morticians, WH Photographers,nurses etc? What kind of person would do that? Somebody that has no interest in the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
27 minutes 50 second The doctor says the bullet hit JFK from the "front"... shot from the picket fence. I looked at a frame by frame shot of the Zapruder film and quite clearly and unambiguously and by Newtons Laws of force the splatter moves forward and so does JFK's head slightly ...quite definitely the bullet entered the "Back" of the head.
@@rbmindful Yes because we now know that Oswald was ALONE ....no shots from any other direction. The big debate now is after 50 years why hasn't ALL the documents been released. We were promised full disclosure after 50 years ! Some have been withheld !? Why. There can only be 1 reason why......!
@@daveb1149 -Only if you mindlessly disregard good witness after witness can you say Oswald Acted Alone. Which is ridiculous at this point and I think you know it... or don't want to know.
The best summary I have heard or seen of the highly complex Parkland episode and its aftermath, and I have read many accounts on both sides of this issue. No gaping holes here and the timeline fits. All is well until the Secret Service enters the picture. No autopsy done there in Dallas is highly worrying. This man is clearly telling the truth.
Why is it worrying that there was no autopsy performed in Dallas?? I don't know if you've ever worked in a hospital, but regular, everyday people are removed from hospitals and cities prior to autopsy *every single day*
I was 11 years old when this happened. I was numb with the news. I really admired President Kennedy. I have been a nurse of many years and have bore witness to similar events. It is incredible. It is numbing. I think Mrs. Kennedy perhaps was in some state of shock but still able to function. That is very possible. This doctor is so articulate in his explanations. Can’t help admire him. Love the way he speaks.Good, interesting interview.
While she was waiting sitting outside the trauma room, she was probably absorbing the reality of what happened. Images of what she witnessed must have been replaying in her mind.
Numb at 11 years old?? “Similar events” as a nurse?? No other American president has been assassinated since Kennedy, there is no similar event you could have witnessed.
Same with Dr. Crenshaw. Beware of expert opinion. it's very sad that ordinary Joe's in this case, and strippers have much more credibility on the JFK Assassination than the most trusted man in America at the time Walter Cronkite and several Presidents Ford,Nixon,LBJ and Bush Sr...
I was glad to listen to this doctor. he speaks with such clarity. I was 11 when the assassination happened and then Saturday we were watching the TV and saw Oswald killed by Ruby. Those were dramatic times. I often think of all the assassinations that happended in my young lifetime, memories forever.
JPW I can't believe it. With such a hole in the skull& the stated loss of brain tissue the loss of blood pressure would have quickly resulted in heart death. Electrical impulses originate in the brain, it defies logic that enough intact brain remained to continue to keep neurons firing.
Wonderful accounting of what happened by Dr. McClelland in addition to dignified recollections. It's a shame that when interviewing such an important figure in this tragedy that the interviewer didn't put a microphone on so we could hear his questions better.
I have the utmost respect for this Doctor. He speaks with such honesty and clarity of the events that day in trauma room 1. These type of men, men like my Father and Grandfather are respectful, kind and good. What a wonderful interview.
Wow. These first-hand observations are priceless. I'd welcome a forensic artist taking his description(s) and working hand-in-hand with him to portray his experience... Hardcore stuff. Thank you for sharing.
This is a rehearsed fabrication from the beginning of: "reason for the tracheotomy, he was breathing, [ though ] part of his brain, The Cerebellum fell out on the table, ( meaning he was ALREADY brain dead, and if your brain is dead, respiratory functions cease ), his heart rate was GOOD" [ Wow, this doctor goes to GREAT LENGTHS to explain CONVINCE why the tracheotomy was NECESSARY to be performed, because that throat wound, bullet shot from IN FRONT of Kennedy proves ballistics, at least A 2ND GUNMAN, and that proves A CONSPIRACY ]. So many books first hand accounts that refute the official. "Crossfire" by Jim Marrs - good one to start with.
@@stormatsunup Fabrication? Dr McClelland explained that while the tracheotomy procedure was being started. He asked Dr Perry if he'd seen the back of the head. Dr Perry said no, but if you remember, just before Dr McClelland mentions what he had noticed, the tracheotomy procedure had already been started. Geez, I mean all this stuff is happening with room full of people. What was there during that 12 minute period from when the president was wheeled into the room, until they stopped working on him. There was like 12 to13 or more people in Trauma Room 1. (6 Doctors ended up in there), plus the Nurses & a couple SS Agents, plus Jacquelyn Kennedy kept walking in & out... This wasn't the first interview of McClelland. There was also Dr Crenshaw's interview. Some of them are probably pushed back because of Google's algorithms.....
@@stormatsunup I have a background as a neuro ICU nurse. This would not constitute "brain death" as the medulla which has centers that are involved in some very basic respiratory and cardiac control was still functioning.
Thank you City of Allen ACTV for posting this valuable piece of history. Dr McClelland talks about the large wound at the right rear of his head, not the front right side as manipulated film and the Warren Report would lead us to believe. Not long from now, all these important people will be gone, and there's few left from that time period as it is... Once their gone, all we'll have left are some video film clip interviews of them and conference discussions, and speaking to go by. If those videos get pulled off of RUclips, that will be it, other than books on the subject..... It's already been proven that all the copies of the Zapruder film that we've seen, or have/had access to, have been altered, and manipulated to the point, that we might as well call them Fakes... I've watched the lecture given by David Healy, an authority on the Technical Processes used on Movie Film. He explained what can be, removed &/or added to Film, used in Motion Pictures. He went on to explain that this technology was around long before 1963.... With all that said, I do hope that all the great interviews & discussions that The City of Allen ACTV have posted, will remain on RUclips... So with that, Again, Thank You.......
It's like a breath of fresh air hearing this man talk ....an honest account, no fluff. ....side bar.... His anecdote about the horse....my great grandfather worked for a Timber Merchant here in England in the 20's - 30's and he used to take his horse drawn flat bed trailor about 15 miles to collect Timber from a Port and take the load back to his Timber Yard...he used to say to the Horse that "It was time to go home"..... he'd sit back and have a nap while the Horse took him and the Load back to their Yard.
From what this doctor described, the fatal shot came from the front which is condradictory to what we've been told over the years. Also, the fact the secret service wouldn't allow the pathologist at parkland to perform an autopsy on kennedy is very suspicious.
Mike Martin the president has his own doctors their not going to let anyone else do a autopsy on a president. That goes for any president Secret Service isn’t going to allow that. Nothing suspicious about that. If he would of survived I guarantee they would of brought different Drs in from wherever and took over
@@pmckin92 Explain to me why was Lyndon Johnson at the hospital with Kennedy?? Shouldn’t he be evacuate to safety and not in a comprised US city that served as a war zone when Kennedy was executed in broad daylight ? Or maybe LBJ was at the hospital to make sure that Kennedy’s body left with him. Why would this respected physician lie about what what he witnessed. BLACK OPPS
@@pmckin92 JFK was dead. There was no reason to remove his body before an autopsy. After the autopsy conducted later, it is obvious that the autopsy was to be controlled by the military. Why this was allowed to happen is a curiosity, they prevented a proper autopsy from happening. The person's chosen to conduct the autopsy had zero experience with gunshot wounds. Coup d'etet
Zapruder Film was altered: many frames missing and others amateurishly blurring the back of JFK’s head. Listen to the men at Kodak that took the film and altered it. Most frames of the actually JFK lethal shot removed; and the frames of the vehicle coming to a stop were removed the Sunday before his funeral. The altered film was an attempt to hide the fact the lethal shot came from the front of the vehicle (the Book Depository building was behind JFK). ruclips.net/video/J_QIuu6hsAc/видео.html
Many people automatically assume the elderly are decent people because they came from a supposed "decent" time in our history. Not true. He looks and sounds like a lovable grandpa.

I am a physician . This man is a credit to our profession. What a gentleman .
It was a discombobulated circuitous eureka moment there at the end , but he finally clears it up by answering the obvious burning question....where the hell was entry wound on the front!??? Lol.. "hairline"...How could such a thing be missed...It's understandable given that the two first physicians were obsessed with the ABC method and missed the fact that his entire back skull was missing... BUT as the dust begins to settle you would think that 3-5 physicians might be able to confirm or be interested in glancing at a frontal hairline entry wound...geez
What's most amazing about his story is the forensic pathologist being forcibly removed so they could scurry away with the President's body. That detail I have never heard...I don't even think Reiner covered that in his podcast.
I think within my lifetime (born1968) the truth will finally be known. Put Bobby in office and he can nix this one finally for the American public...We were Ceasered..yep it sure is looking like it.
@@johnworsley9371Which shows you that even this great man was pressured to shroud the truth, or at least he felt fearful about blurting it out in an obvious way. To me there is enough now to know beyond all reasonable doubt that (1) it was a conspiracy. (2) If a conspiracy, then why the need for those having the power to cover it up? (3) One then concludes from (2), quite obviously, that those covering it up were involved. (4) They clearly don't want the public joining the dots.
If you don't want to spend too much time, just look into the limo driver, Greer and how he applied the brakes (the brake lights coming on were caught on film) at the very worst possible moment, a few seconds before the headshot they were expecting, dude even turned around to check because obviously he was in charge of the 'means' keeping JFK in the kill zone. Of course once the first shot rang out they had to 'pull out all the stops' to finish him off or else the whole massive thing would have blown open. It was all or nothing, 'go for broke'.
You believe liars. Dr. Crenshaw told the truth years later in his book. The CIA did it. Meticulous planning. So many groups involved. So many shooters. Even Jackie shot her husband through the Lambchop puppet with a Derringer. Murderers!
I am always far more interested in the questions nobody asks. So many not asked questions??? Like: Why would you put a trachostomy into a dead person? He clearly would have been seen as dead on arrival, as I'm sure it took at least probably 5-10 minutes to get the president from the scene to the hospital, no vital signs? I'm sure there must have been alot of blood everywhere? Fixed pupils? Why would you carry out a autopsy on someone who clearly had their brains blown out?? I thought autopsys were for people when reason for death was undertermined? These seem to me as basic questions? I seriously doubt an autopsy was carried out, when no one "in the know" wanted any real answers, just a fascade. How can somebody not know these things within seeing a patient within 5 minutes?

The day this young man walked into work thinking just another long shift thinking maybe,tops, I might see a heart attack, or a car accident or how about a kid broken arm from bike crash unknowing that in the AM he was a young 2nd year resident and after 12 noon he was a full fledged chapter in American history, and it prob added 10-15 years to him instantly. Like goin ashore on D-Day 18 year old boys and if they made it through they were almost old men by the end of the day. Sobering
I think it’s very interesting/insightful to reflect back on what they were doing and how it would have been incredible to have the same interview with the Lincoln doctors and what they witnessed and personal thoughts and 1st hand medical opinions and observations.

@@DDEENY I was there on an anniversary back in 2001. They had exhibits, where they showed actual photos of a dead JFK on a metal plank. The entire right side of his skull, about 3” in and across gone. Showing he was hit in the front top right side of his head. Shockingly there was little blood. Assuming it was post clean up. However without question a third of his brain wasn’t intact. Void of skull.
@@midnitelitecompany Thank you for your thoughtful comments which are appreciated. I strongly believe that JFK's head was struck by 2 bullets, rear and frontal, virtually simultaneously and the combination of them (and the frontal shot's bullet was an explosive bullet per confessed grassy knoll assassin James Files' account which is substantiated by others' conclusions) is what caused such catastrophic and fatal damage which caused the expulsion of about one-third of his brain (although accounts vary somewhat re: quantity). But what is undeniably troubling and at the same time compelling is the late Bethesda autopsy technician Paul O'Connor's sober account stating that JFK's body arrived at the morgue in a body bag contained in a metal shipping casket rather than the casket offloaded from Air Force One at Andrews Air Force Base, and that JFK's skull contained NO brain at all to speak of, in utter contradiction of the unanimous accounts of the Parkland Hospital staff. Paul O'Connor's account was never challenged that I'm aware, he'd never changed his story and the issue remains unresolved. And I've never heard any supporter of the Warren Commission's conclusions even attempt to challenge Paul O'Connor's statement. And BTW the attending Naval medical staff members at Bethesda including O'Connor were coerced under threat of court martial into signing statements agreeing never to divulge anything that they'd witnessed re: the JFK autopsy (although in time they eventually did). Who or what could ever explain that? Thank you again.
He is such a wonderful man. Such a gentleman and humble. Clearly this is something that he has remembered with such clarity because it was such a tragedy. I can’t imagine how horrific this was for all the ER staff at Parkland. Thank you sir for your account of this horrific death.
Thank you to the interviewer as well. Asking the right questions and giving the doctor plenty of time to answer.
this was the death of america the good
What Was More Horrific About Jfk Death Than Anyone Else Who Was Shot In The Head They Deal With This Everyday The Doctor Even Said It Didn't Change His Life. Jfk Was By No Means A Great Man Not Even A Good Man What Kind Of President Brings Prostitutes Into The White House Right Under The First Lady's Nose His Dad Told Him What He Could And Could Not Do He Was Ordered To Make Bobby Attorney General And He Wasn't Even A Attorney The Whole Family Was Crooked As A Dogs Hind Leg Jfk Didn't Want To Marry Jackie He Was In Love With Some Other Woman But His Daddy Said No She Was Not The First Lady Type So He Married Jackie But He Did Keep Seeing The Other Woman Jackie Could Care Less Because She Didn't Care About The President She Was In Love With The Money.

A great interview. He has been a thorn in the side of the Warren Report Apologists. He never wavered. A Great man and a true patriot. One of the inconvenient Witnesses for the Warren Report.
Well, he's not a witness. He had an OPINION.
Kennedy's head was in a DOWNWARD POSITION, when the bullet struck. It sliced the top of his skull in half, but not his face. A frontal shot would've shattered his face and the bullet would not have landed in the car.
Dr. Robert McClelland passed away last year, 2019, RIP Doctor.
RIP. He seems like he was a good man.
Rest Peacefully Doctor. 🙏🏻
RIP, good Doctor.
2019, huh? He got out just in time.
I just watched 12/14/20,
and had wondered if he was still living. 🌹What a story !
Rest in peace Dr. McClelland
@@nickroberts6984
Yeah same for me too. Unbelievable that he was still alive how distressing for his poor wife.
If you want to know exactly what happened in the ER room, listen to this man. Very intelligent, no forgotten information, and a straight to the point guy. He’s not an “old fart” out of his mind, government lackey.
Good old days
What.a memory he has!! 👍👍
Agree completely
Dr. Robert McClelland was the Doctor at Parkland and had an opinion about the shots coming from the front. But he couldn't have come to that conclusion by looking at Kennedy that day. The only evidence that's credible is the autopsy. And McClelland has changed his version of what happened over the years.
@@TELEVISIONARCHIVES Wrong again. That Golden Oldie Oswald Acted Alone has become as tiresome as a Trump Rant. He was there 18 inches away from the wound. Don't tell me what he did or didn't see.
What an articulate gentleman. Over the decades we’ve lost this level of polish and professionalism.
He didn't choose to be such an integral part of this story - history chose him and he answered the call as best he could. After reading countless articles and interviews about Trauma Room One, I can't believe anyone would think these doctors at Parkland did anything but try all they could to save JFK.
Conspiracy!!!
On all levels,that's why valuable information is locked away and won't be released till I pass and I was born in July 1964!!? But what's not kept secret is all the witnesses who had mysteriously passed away that knew valuable information!! You don't have to kill off everyone to get the message across! You come forward,say the wrong thing and you can be next!!!
I concur with your comment. Having been born in Dallas and growing up there (and being a young boy in 1963), I can say to those who might not know, that Parkland was then and continues to be, one of the premier trauma and emergency training centers in the U.S. The doctors on the faculty would have been at the very top of their profession in Texas. I don’t know of any serious criticism directed to the medical staff concerning their actions. Unfortunately, even with today’s advancements in trauma care, I don’t believe there would have been any chance to save the president’s life.
JFK was already gone before reaching the overpass in Dealey Plaza. As this doctor describes it, he viewed the back of the head and saw a 5- inch gaping wound. The agonal breathing means death. Never seen anyone come back from that in 32 years. The Parkland docs did try, though, and I give them points for that. The neurosurgeon called for the end of resuscitation efforts after seeing the amount of brain damage. I read where he said, "You got nothing to work with." He was right. Zero chance of surviving. Sad.
I appreciated this interview. The doctor answered the questions with sincerity, with no denial or vagueness. It is a remarkable piece of history that is captured for future generations to review. The ring exchange by Jackie is heartfelt….
Later, she thought about the ring and asked for it back which did happen.
@@marciahill5604 There was a description of that scene just rips your guts out in Dr. Charles Crenshaw's Book. He talked about JFK's great charisma even in death, and how it was hard to get the ring off after death and Jackie kissing him goodbye.
Also struck by his account of the Secret Service agents getting physical with the forensic pathologist, forcefully preventing any autopsy from being done in Dallas.
The back of his head was blown off..That would be a shot or shots from the front.
@@wendellrider1212Yes, without any doubt. Forensics 101.
This gentle doctor is a historical treasure.
My father was a general practitioner who did house calls in the country. He got there driving, but sometimes he had to wait, by the side of the country road, to be picked up by the husband who would arrive by skydoo in the middle of the night, because in Quebec (Canada) where we lived, it snowed a lot in those days during Winter. The husband would take my father to the house to deliver the baby. He was my hero, a humble and caring doctor/man, like Dr. McClelland.
It's pretty incredible listening to how SHARP this man still is...
It's crazy to think about the fact that he can still recall SO much, in such vivid detail...
May he RIP🙏
I was a little over 4 years old when it happened. It’s one of my earliest memories I remember my mom crying and I was very upset about that then she told me that the president died.this interview is incredible. There is an evil in our government. A real evil presence .it exposed itself that day and has gained strength ever since . Oswald my dago ass.Pray everyone with all you have .
The book of Revelations will come true. Satan will have his last hurrah. Pray indeed and DO NOT be a lukewarm Christian. You will be spit out.
He got a little confused though at the end between talking about Kennedy and about Oswald.
My Dad came home early from work that day trying to tell me between tears that the president was shot and killed I was only 5 years old, after my dad turned the TV on it seemed like all the adults were in tears! Something I will never forget but my five year year old mind couldn't grasp why adults were crying across America for somebody they never met or knew!
This is not "crazy" to think about...
What a dignified, intelligent and professional Man.... incredible account. God Bless him for telling the Truth.
His memory is so good because horrible things impress us deeply. I don't remember what happened at school that morning, but I recall every word said, every action done, after we found out about the assassination. This was a remarkable interview, well done by the questioner and the doctor.
And just think how many times he Has told it

Nothing but respect for all professionals in their respective fields, especially this fine fellow. RIP sir !
I was 13 that day, and remember it like it was yesterday. Today, I'm a physician, Internal Medicine, not Surgery, and I have some knowledge of the state of medicine in the early '60s. This account is as horrifying as the event itself. A five inch hole blown out of the man's head? Incomprehensible. His (severed) cerebellum fell out of the wound onto the cart? Those kids were flying on adrenaline and pure instinct, putting in an ET tube and starting a trache. Things had to have been spinning so fast they never even took a full look at Kennedy. Dr McClelland had to have realized within microseconds that there was no possibility of salvaging the man. Fifty nine years later, I still hope the truth eventually comes out as to who did it, who ordered it, and why, no matter how catastrophic those facts may be. RIP Mr Kennedy. With all his faults, he is probably the last president we as a nation trusted and had faith in. As I tell my now adult kids, the 1960s were really, really bad years.
David. President Trump is the last President I trusted. They had a very good look at JFK. They examined the head would thoroughly! How else would they know the cerebellum was falling out of the wound? How else would they describe the head wound being in the right rear and about 5-6 inches in diameter? Of course they examined him. Who are you trying to fool?
There is an American-Korean doctor who famously said:
Internal Medicine doctors know everything and do nothing.
Surgeons know nothing and do everything.
ER doctors know everything and do everything.
My father's inoperable 2 inch anaplastic astrocytoma (which was only a couple of DNA expression away from GBM) had significantly regressed after changing his diet regimen drastically. The malignant tumor located in his thalamus nearly disappeared, in fact. I went to a few of the most prominent neurosurgeons over the years to double check with their view on this recovery. While they wouldn't medically validate the diet as the main cause of the medical miracle, they encouraged us on (though indirect). While I was studying to save my father, I read a lot (I consume information fast) and I met dozens of brain cancer patients and watched them closely. I saw their MRI scans and monitored their clinical conditions up close. There are 2 other survivors who tried my father's diet and they still share their MRI scans with me. Every time I comment on their scans, they say their neurosurgeon also said the same thing (Ex. necrosis diagnose - it is more complicated than just spotting a dark spot. There are over 1000 pictures as you know and there are 3 doctors analyzing it together, neurosurgeon, oncologist and radiologist). I met many doctors (internal medicine, surgeon, family medicine as well as neurosurgeon and biologist who studies brain) and realized brain is something of "the unknown world" even to them. Brain is amazing. Even the most experienced neurosurgeon performing the most sophisticated awake craniotomy, can't guarantee anything because it is up to the patient.
I say this to you because you are a doctor who do not believe other doctor's testimony (though it is not your specialty). Don't you have incidents that you gather information and make decisions in microseconds and remember all accounts of it later? I have many of them. Doctors I know didn't jump to dismiss other doctors unless they were trying to make sales of chemotherapy drugs which makes me question if you are dismissing this doctor for your belief in conspiracy theory.
I work in a leading tech sector. I value everyone's medical experiences and testimonies because innovations come from observations.
I also studied about history of medicine and how clinical test began back in victorian era by (by then) wealthy pharmaceuticals. So in that context, I'd like to encourage you to channel your doubts in other doctors into making your own medical innovation instead.
A neurosurgeon could claim that this video is absurd and even that would be his own opinion based on his own experience. They do their own things a bit when it comes to brain just like some of internal medicine doctor may do.
I was born in the 70's so I don't know why you couldn't trust people in positions of authority. My parents never said anything derogatory about hippies. As a child, I was innately afraid of them. Like you would be afraid of a dog with rabies. I was about 3 or 4 then. We're we fighting a cold war? With the missle crisis. If you want an account of the man behind closed doors, I would read Mimi Alford's book. Believe it she's telling the truth, because there are other women who were aides at the WH who corroborate her story. I believe she's suffering from Stockholm syndrome. JFK was also sleeping with a Russian spy.
@@maxsmith695 With all due respects sir, you really need to be on antipsychotic meds before you hurt somebody. Free medical advice.
I was same age at that time and yes it was the end of trusting our government! People knew but what can you do!
This is a very important video. Dr. McClelland was a very fine man of integrity and honesty. I believe every word he said. I wonder if the Warren Commission members interviewed him, and if not why not?
She handed his BRAIN to the doctor? Oh my word. How did she not lose her mind after that? Oh my word. Praise God for His comfort to her.
Shock... It was hard enough for me to have a doctor tell me my brother had died. I can't imagine being in a scenario like Mrs Kennedy was forced to witness during that last half hour...
@@montydaniels1054 I'm sorry for the loss of your brother. Just prayed for him and you💚
@@Duneswalker Well Thank You. I had his car which left him with his motorcycle to get round on. Because the headlight had an electrical issue, a car-full of young people on the way to a party, (it was graduation time at their high school), that driver claimed he couldn't tell how close my brother was to him. The kid crossed the center line & they hit head on. So even though that happened years ago, on this last Thanksgiving Day, my sister called me from Canada, to reminded me that his death was all my fault... Evidentially she's going through something in order to make a comment like that to me.... Thank you again for the Prayers... That's something that we can't get too much of...

She wasn't picking up brain, she was hauling ass.
Crazy to think that Jack Kennedy was still alive after getting shot once in the throat and the other in the head. He was a fighter.
Nah ain't no way
John not Jack.
@widowmaker7462 you dropped your dunce hat /`\
@@Therantguyyeazy Agree the back of JFK's head was gone. He was dead. The tracheotomy further cut open the entry hole of one of the bullet wounds. How do we know it was an entry hole? Because bullet entry wounds are the size of the bullet when the bullet enters the body. Exit wounds are large like the back of JFK's head wound. Of course this would mean JFK was shot from the front ruining the myth that Oswald was the lone gunman who killed JFK with a shot from the rear.
I applaud the Doctors efforts. I imagine seeing something so horrendous would forever stay with you. I just keep thinking of poor Jackie, sitting there so meek and quiet awaiting news on her husband. So incredibly sad.
And handing the doctors and nurses over the piece of brain and skull she had grasped from the back end of the vehicle... she'd held onto it all the way to the hospital. I believe, I could be wrong.
@@persephone2706 No, you’re not wrong. She did indeed have parts of her husband’s brain tissue cupped in her hands. So incredibly awful and tragic.
She carried herself in public with such poise and dignity in all the days that followed, and truly helped the Nation in its grief, leading by example. God only knows how it was for her in private. She was a rock for Bobby Kennedy during that time too, who was completely devastated and broken after his brother’s murder.
She suffered many tragedies in her life, including the loss of their newborn son just three months prior. So very sad. And still is to this day. 😔 JFK was one of the greats, IMO. ❤️🌹
@@margobarry9240 Yes, He was !!
You know she left the country not long after in fear for her life.

27 minutes 50 second The doctor says the bullet hit JFK from the "front"... shot from the picket fence. I looked at a frame by frame shot of the Zapruder film and quite clearly and unambiguously and by Newtons Laws of force the splatter moves forward and so does JFK's head slightly ...quite definitely the bullet entered the "Back" of the head.
@@daveb1149 You think a bullet traveling 2500 to 3000 feet per second is not going to drive the head back and to the left? If he was hit in the rear of the head JFK would have been slammed into the seat in front of him.
@@vernpascal1531 Unfortunately Vern you need to read and FULLY understand Newtons laws of momentum to fully get what happened with the head shot. I understand fully what happened and so does the Warren commission because it was explained to them by a mathematician. One further very important point to note....JFK was wearing a steel back brace and he could NOT bend forward even if he was hit in the back of the head with a sledgehammer... Now please stop writing to me with your stupid uneducated ideas and theories and get a decent fucking education.
He was the ER doctor when I visited the ER at Parkland after a motorcycle mishap in 1968 while visiting family in Dallas. I was 13 years old and had rode a trail bike through a barbed wire fence.

Rest in peace Dr. McClelland. God bless you. Such an amazing recount of what happened.
Try to imagine being faced with such a dramatic and obviously historical event right out of the blue. The man went to work with thoughts of the normal and in the blink of his eye, he was thrust into the middle of the most calamitous event imaginable.
He recounts perfectly the rock-solid professionalism that was so prevalent then and still so needed now. Rest in Peace.
Of course he’s telling the truth, he’s speaking from memory he’s not thinking as one would be if they.were constructing a false story. The man is a humble, decent person who would find great difficulty be dishonest. He’s lived too long to change his character no matter how much he is pushed
Memory is a funny thing. Some events are imprinted so deeply that you can replay it as if it were on film. Like any film, what you see is your perspective, your impression, your comprehension, your truth. Each person involved will remember things differently. Time changes perspective, things known long after the event might slightly affect the retelling, however it is still your truth.
@@pamb5186 simple - three people simultaneously witness an event, all three will tell you a different story. Someone who is short stature might describe another as very tall. Someone tall may describe the same person as being average height. "Their truth" means that they are telling the truth as they see and believe it to be.
@@pamb5186 opinion is more about emotional response, how you feel about something. The truth, in this sort of situation, involves perception. A few years ago, this dress went viral. People saw it as being either black and blue or white and gold. Whatever colors you saw, both answers would be true. I understand what you mean by only one truth, something along the lines of proven (scientific) fact. Really, this is just about words, meanings, nuances, definitions... Interpretation... Really confuse things we can talk about medical and legal terminology in the mix. Even cultural differences, like American English versus British English. ..
@@pamb5186 oh - truth or lie? Personally, I feel lying is a grave offense. I would be lying if I told you that I don't lie. However, I very rarely ever lie. Truth is something I value, very much. Someone who is mistaken, can still be honest. The short and tall people, they were not lying.

One of the most interesting interviews I've seen, Dr McClelland's account of the day and the presidents injuries is remarkable. I thank him for this piece of history that will forever remain unresolved.
The evidence shows that both shots came from the rear and that Oswald alone was responsible for the murder. Therefore you can't say this piece of history is unresolved. Only among conspiracy nutbars is there still an open question. I used to be one of them (tho I wasn't hard core). But I changed my mind after a reexamination of the actual evidence that's available to the public.
@@brucemacmillan7128 How did Oswald shoot and the bullet went around the corner. The word CONSPIRACY means a group of people who INTEND danger or HARM to others. The evil ones added theory to conspiracies to cast doubts on the truth so that people will continue to believe lies.
@@estherkeeling777 The lies are those that project their own paranoia in the form of conspiracy nonsense that is based on nothing but supposition and conjecture. It is based on ideas that would require everybody and their brother's uncle's dog to be in on the conspiracy. That's just bs. Also, Oswald's first bullet did not go 'around a corner'. You are basing that idea, again, on misinformation and lies that are not based on the actual trajectory of the bullet and the position of Kennedy in the back of the limo.
@@brucemacmillan7128 Absolutely untrue Kennedy was shot from more than one direction. Go read the doctors account of what happened. They removed frames from Abraham Zaputers filming of the assassination.. Oswald himself stated that they used him as a patsy and he said they beat himThey assassinated Oswald to keep him from talking. Apparently you doi not realize how evil many of the rulers in this world are. Look at how many go ernments are forcing people to go ing with homosexuality murdering babies. Telling men they can go In women's bathrooms. Destroying peoples minds about their country so that they can destroy this system. Oswald could not shoot from the front and the back. His autopsy was changed. When he was shot from the back his head went forward when he was shot from the front his head went backwards. Bullets do not travel like that. They sealed the information regarding Kennedys death for 50 years you really think that was for no reason? There is a film somewhere that gives the correct account on what really happened. The doctor STATED THAT HE WAS GIVEN A DIFFERENT VERSION OF THE AUTOPSY AND WAS THREATENED. At least two doctors agreed that he was shot from the front as well and the back portion of his head was gone.on the right side. Even witnessesse pointed to different directions when questioned regarding the shots.
@@brucemacmillan7128 Paranoia has nothing to do with the president being murdered it was evil men who wanted to have their way. Just like lincoln and other men have been murdered. How you can come to the Conclusion that it is based on paranoia is weird. You need to study more.

"Is there anything I didn't ask which I should have?" - Aside from a thoroughly-riveting recount from Dr. McClelland, the interviewer is impressive, as is the interview, in general. Most major media outlets would have run this as an over-produced drama, complete with suspenseful music in the background, and a baritone or bass-toned narrator speaking in a foreboding voice, simply narrating a show, as opposed to interviewing a primary source and letting them speak without distractions.
Except for one glaring ommission. The interviewer doesn't have a microphone, so can barely hear what he is saying.
Or using jump cuts, which always bothers me because you wonder what’s left on the cutting room floor. (Figure of speech).
Keep in mind, this is the UNCUT version of this interview. This is not a version that would've been aired in a tight timeline for broadcast.
What a total gentleman Dr.McClelland is. I wish the politicians that run our country had half the integrity this man has. What a wonderful country we would live in if they did.
I listened to this and tried to imagine these people, and their last moments with JFK. I got tears in my eyes understanding, what it must have been like for Jackie. Simply horrible, and than the silence. The not being able to interact anymore. Being lonely in a full room. Is sad, I understand. For me John F. is one of my big examples. R.I.P. and strength to all.

@@saskoilersfan To cut his throat up more..to mess up the narrative. With that much brain matter lost. No function of heart or any vital organs. The body goes into shut down. Even before that, that much blood loss and brain wound...cardiac arrest. But. Really one needs to know exactly where the brain matter was missing from. As I have seen people breath on their own with half their brain missing from certain parts. And survive and go on living with a "helmet" til cranial restoration is performed and set. If it was brain matter not controlling breathing or central nervous system. It can be done. I do believe Dr McClellan. He is not lying. But then I don't believe all. As he could've been permitted to state the obvious part that we are all questioning. And 'what are we going to do about it kinda thing'. I mean, he spoke all this close to his passing..

I live on crownland , but the lie is I live on Canadian land.
The British don't police Canada anymore since they took over in secret...
The British rule Canada dream.
The red white and blue nations are all lied forces.
I don't like being here in this existance of deceptions.
I don't like the liars of earth.
I don't like this world of wars.
I don't like life...
I don't think like these beings...
What's wrong with earth and humanity ?
Fucking everything on this world is what's wrong with humans...
Lies never die , just the liars do...
Too bad Martin Luthers dream turned out to be his nightmare..
Thank you so much for all you did and for being willing to share this with us.
Thank you for interviewing Dr McClelland, a truly fine human being.
I really like the interview with the Dr. He really resonates honesty and altruism. Wish all Dr's were like this man.
Incredibly articulate and clear minded physician's testimony. It's a tragic event and this interview was very interesting and informative.
I don't know, when talking about Oswald, he was talking JFK.
This is a guy with a very sharp mind. Well articulated memories.
He's got way more cognitive abilities than Joe Biden.
His story is like that of other doctors on the scene, but differs in details. So no, he is not "telling the truth" he is telling his truth.
@@ktcarl JFK in the hospital trauma room that day had more cognitive abilities than Biden has.
@@johnsmith1474 He was there and saw the wound in the back of JFK's head as did two other doctors. I'm more trusting of medical people with no political stance reporting as eyewitnesses on what they observed. "His truth" carries more weight than the BS of the Warren Commission IMO.
@@ktcarl Exactly. McClelland was only 18 inches away and looked with a flashlight into the wound, for some 10 minutes, so being a highly intelligent trained Professional there is no way he could be wrong about that.
Wonderful interview of a great man and physician, and an honest one, too. All of us who lived through that time, and those of us who learn of it now or in the future, will benefit greatly from this man's perspective and intimate knowledge -- of both the treatment, and the description, of President Kennedy and his wounds. Thank you.
I was very young, but remember watching the funeral. A very sad time. Beautifully done interview.
I find it absolutely amazing that Kennedy had a steady heart beat and was doing agonal respirations despite having his brain(s) seep out from a "massive head wound". I was oh so confused beforehand when I heard that doctors tried to resuscitate him, given the obvious. But apparently, they didn't know the extent of the trauma. Again, Kennedy's condition upon arrival to the hospital was simply astonishing, considering his injuries. Bless this man for telling it like it is, unlike those that conformed to the Warren Commission.
true
Possibly brain stem wasn’t damaged and was in the fight or flight response
way to go bro@..You're right of course. He was essentially dead the second that coup de gras struck FROM THE FRONT. He only had the most basic autonomous functioning of his heart and lungs (for circulation and respiration) due to the fact that his medulla remained intact with its signaling activity to the heart and lungs. More biological machine than human after that. Even with today's medical advances the best they could do is keep him "alive" by artificial means and even then only if immediately attended to, but it seems he would have died either way. We all know the last rites were performed well after he expired (as if they matter anyway...imo...and I grew up Roman Catholic).
They would rather have history say that they at least tried to save him instead of giving up and pronouncing him dead on site.
When it's the President of the US they're going to try aren't they? especially one like that...they call it 'going through the motions'.
I LOVE how he is unimpressed with political power! The way it should be! This guy should be in charge, too!
Then he would be a politician.
Reminds me of Jimmy Carter
He would make an
AWESOME
Politician. !!
Integrity refutes all else.
Dr McClelland’s training, education, and family culture and heritage, and in small-town, even east Texas, prepared him unawares for this event as fully as any in this country, or anywhere else, could.
Seeing we had such as him and the thorough competence is such as of him and those with whom he served reassures what this country has produced and perhaps still does.
Huh?
@@brandoneisenhauer8735, thank you for your considered, measured response.
this is a great man and very good at anything he does , and not afraid to explain everything as it happened .
An honest man speaking the truth in a very calmed manner.
I didn’t know he passed away. RIP Dr Mclelland. I listened to many of his interviews from that horrible day of 11/22/63
Clearly an honest man. When the Secret Service commandeered Kennedy's body, the medical staff at Parkland resisted noting that Texas law required an autopsy be performed for any homicide. The Secret Service made a "deal" with them stating that coincidentally a military physician was at hand to accompany the body back to DC where an autopsy would be performed ASAP. The Parkland staff relented given the condition that the body would be accompanied at all times by the military doctor.
There was nothing coincidental about Admiral Burkley's presence - he was the personal physician of President Kennedy (as well as LBJ, and iirc was the physician at Camp David during the Eisenhower administration as well) and had traveled with President Kennedy. JFK's fairly complicated medical situation/history was the reason that his personal physician traveled with him; despite his young age, for a President, JFK's health was always a bit precarious.
U basically telling us word for word that the secret agent told us💯
@@doctormorgan5353
Addison's disease, I've heard.
If they really wanted answers instead of a coverup they'd have done the autopsy right then and there.
@@tomservo5347 the Federal authorities had no jurisdiction over the case. There was no Federal law regarding the murder of a president in 1963. Only the State of Texas had legal jurisdiction over the case. The body should not have been removed from Dallas County until a full forensic autopsy had been performed by the Medical Examiner's office.
Dr. McClelland and all the rest were the best of the best. They were all dedicated, compassionate and great Doctors and the President couldnt have had any better in the world than these knowledgable surgeons. In my eyes they were all heros and wll go down in history as such. RIP Dr. Mac !
Unforgettable....a brave, forthright recounting of an unbelievable tragedy!
He oozes integrity. Any narrative must weigh his testimony heavily.
I just wish the interviewer would have asked him the question that was begging to be asked of the MD whom stood 18 inches or so above the president's head. Dr McClelland with your vantage point and your professional training and knowledge of human anatomy, did you see an entry wound to or towards the front part of the president's head which ostensibly led to the 5 inch exit to the rear. If anybody would see it, it would have been Dr McClelland, no? No one can disagree with these MD's as to what they saw and parts of the body they describe, its their profession, they know. For him not to be asked that question is ridiculous. Did any of the other MD's refer to a visible front entry wound to the presidents head?
@@BHeisler59 very good question. Here's the list of those at both Hospitals who saw an entrance wound in the right temple region1. Dr. Charles Crenshaw Parkland Hospital 2. Autopsy Assistant James Jenkins Bethesda Hospital 3. X-Ray Tech Jerrol Custer Bethesda Hospital 4. Dr. Gene Akin Parkland Hospital 5. Officer Of The Day Dennis David Bethesda from unseen still picture.
Important thing to remember is that is 5 more than ever saw an entrance in the rear cowlick of the head 11-22-63.
@@BHeisler59 if you can still find the full uncut Evidence of Revision his earlier testimony and statements are in it, confirming wound of entry at the front. Ditto other first responding doctors.
@@BHeisler59 I've read extensively about the assassination. The only account I have come across that gives a reliable description of an entry wound from the front is from the priest who gave JFK last rites. He said as leaned down to give the rites he saw a small hole/wound that looked like a powder burn in his right temple. Although it may seem counter intuitive- but none of the doctors really examined jfk for wounds. They were laser focused on life saving procedures and the back of his head- no one was looking for an entry wound. And, once they pronounced he died, they pretty much left the room.
President, with the massive headwound, was brain dead soon after he took the head shot. The fact that he was breathing and had a heartbeat for a few minutes, was just other functions that had not caught up to brain death. Truly horrible situation. This Dr. tells a very poignant story in a very respectful way.
I have seen similar situations-the patient has died from extensive head trauma (motorcycle vs guardrail, no helmet), but was still “breathing,” even after the doc called it and the ET tube was disconnected from the vent. Your brain stem can send erratic impulses to the diaphragm to initiate the mechanisms of breathing, but the parts of the guy who made him who he was, that was still on the guardrail. He wiped out right in front of two Paramedics coming back from a call, they were out of the truck and trying to save him within probably 30 seconds, but no helmet, the guy never had a chance (not to mention all the orthopedic injuries, and abdominal injuries). The paramedic (Iraqi War vet), just kept saying, “we got there too soon.” Meaning, no one could save the guy’s life, we just prolonged his death. Every two minutes, he would take a guppy breath, all while the open hole where the right hemisphere should have been was an open cavity with stuffed with sterile dressings to keep what was left in there from tumbling out onto gurney when we put him in a body bag. There are days where nursing is great, and there are days where it just stinks. Everybody in that room felt so helpless, waiting for the brain stem to wind down, and this was a stranger off the interstate who wiped out, not someone any of us knew, not a beloved President. Finally, the head nurse leaned over and told the guy it was okay to let go, he hadn’t hurt anyone when he wiped out, and if he heard someone calling his name, it was ok to go to them. He never took another breath.
Utterly traumatic,never forget how my parents went in to crying 😭 never saw my parents cry like that in my life ..
@@bwktlcn Thank youi for this honest and very pertinent story that really parallels the wounds that the president had, and how you portrayed that, in your profession, you don't deal with presidents, but real people that also have souls and are equally important. Thank you.
It's called agonal breathing. The last gasp or two before the end.
Ain't no way that man got shot in the head like that and was alive at the hospital that man died in that car when he took that last shot
Thank you Dr. McClellan for your straightforward account.
have so much respect for the medical department at Parkland that day - what a wonderful insight to one of lowest days in America History
His body language says it all. He is telling the truth
Of course he is telling the truth,which shows the official story is impossible! If you listen to the asshole dishonest Lone nutters then you can't believe Medical Doctors,X-Ray Tech's,Radiologists, Morticians, WH Photographers,nurses etc? What kind of person would do that? Somebody that has no interest in the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
27 minutes 50 second The doctor says the bullet hit JFK from the "front"... shot from the picket fence. I looked at a frame by frame shot of the Zapruder film and quite clearly and unambiguously and by Newtons Laws of force the splatter moves forward and so does JFK's head slightly ...quite definitely the bullet entered the "Back" of the head.
The doctor says JFK was shot from the front, from the picket fence and this idiot interviewer changes the topic?
@@rbmindful Yes because we now know that Oswald was ALONE ....no shots from any other direction.
The big debate now is after 50 years why hasn't ALL the documents been released. We were promised full disclosure after 50 years ! Some have been withheld !? Why. There can only be 1 reason why......!
@@daveb1149 -Only if you mindlessly disregard good witness after witness can you say Oswald Acted Alone. Which is ridiculous at this point and I think you know it... or don't want to know.
Jackie was in shock. God bless her, she was stoic . How horrific it myst have been for her.
Oh my god, what a great man, citizen and a doctor. What a great video. What a great testimony. What a great piece of history
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
The best summary I have heard or seen of the highly complex Parkland episode and its aftermath, and I have read many accounts on both sides of this issue. No gaping holes here and the timeline fits. All is well until the Secret Service enters the picture. No autopsy done there in Dallas is highly worrying. This man is clearly telling the truth.
yep
Bruce q
Why is it worrying that there was no autopsy performed in Dallas?? I don't know if you've ever worked in a hospital, but regular, everyday people are removed from hospitals and cities prior to autopsy *every single day*
I heard they wanted to do autopsy there and CIA forbid it
There's no doubt it was a.planed assasination, by the shadow government, CIA or military, they said Kennedy was soft on Communism
I was 11 years old when this happened. I was numb with the news. I really admired President Kennedy. I have been a nurse of many years and have bore witness to similar events. It is incredible. It is numbing. I think Mrs. Kennedy perhaps was in some state of shock but still able to function. That is very possible. This doctor is so articulate in his explanations. Can’t help admire him. Love the way he speaks.Good, interesting interview.
While she was waiting sitting outside the trauma room, she was probably absorbing the reality of what happened. Images of what she witnessed must have been replaying in her mind.
Numb at 11 years old?? “Similar events” as a nurse?? No other American president has been assassinated since Kennedy, there is no similar event you could have witnessed.
What a fine Doctor and Gentelman
Same with Dr. Crenshaw. Beware of expert opinion. it's very sad that ordinary Joe's in this case, and strippers have much more credibility on the JFK Assassination than the most trusted man in America at the time Walter Cronkite and several Presidents Ford,Nixon,LBJ and Bush Sr...
I was glad to listen to this doctor. he speaks with such clarity. I was 11 when the assassination happened and then Saturday we were watching the TV and saw Oswald killed by Ruby. Those were dramatic times. I often think of all the assassinations that happended in my young lifetime, memories forever.
Amazing that JFK's heart was still beating for 5 minutes after the arrival at Parkland Hospital.
The human heart has its own electrical system, in addition there are basic life function signals from the brain stem.
JPW I can't believe it. With such a hole in the skull& the stated loss of brain tissue the loss of blood pressure would have quickly resulted in heart death. Electrical impulses originate in the brain, it defies logic that enough intact brain remained to continue to keep neurons firing.
@@Chief2Moon Ever hunted ?
@@Chief2Moon Perhaps you should take 5 minutes to educate yourself on the heart and the how it operates......
He was dead.
What a thorough gentleman. Rest his noble soul.
What a humble man. The Dr. was going to wrap up the interview without even talking about Oswald. He had to be asked.
Wonderful accounting of what happened by Dr. McClelland in addition to dignified recollections. It's a shame that when interviewing such an important figure in this tragedy that the interviewer didn't put a microphone on so we could hear his questions better.
Watch it again with "Closed Caption" on. 😉
What a wonderful man, thanks Doc! I could barely hear the interviewer’s questions though.
God Bless the good doctor. Rest easy Sir.
RIP Dr, Robert McClelland
What a fascinating interview and an incredible doctor and gentleman.
Hell of a guy. I can't imagine the pressure he felt at that moment. I can understand why he had to force himself to walk to the room.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?

This is what I expect a gentleman to act, and sound like... Hard to find solid MEN like this anymore
Dr. McClelland passed away on September 10, 2019. Who is left from the emergency room on that day?
I have the utmost respect for this Doctor. He speaks with such honesty and clarity of the events that day in trauma room 1. These type of men, men like my Father and Grandfather are respectful, kind and good. What a wonderful interview.
Harry Reasoner’s composure and ability to articulate the “fantastic” events of the moment is beyond remarkable even 60 years later.
Straightforward man. Tells it like it is.
Robert McClelland a fine decent man .... may perpetual light shine upon him.
He is in Heaven with the Lord.
What an amazing interview. Thank you, Dr. McClelland.
Wow. These first-hand observations are priceless. I'd welcome a forensic artist taking his description(s) and working hand-in-hand with him to portray his experience... Hardcore stuff. Thank you for sharing.
This is a rehearsed fabrication from the beginning of: "reason for the tracheotomy, he was breathing, [ though ] part of his brain, The Cerebellum fell out on the table, ( meaning he was ALREADY brain dead, and if your brain is dead, respiratory functions cease ), his heart rate was GOOD" [ Wow, this doctor goes to GREAT LENGTHS to explain CONVINCE why the tracheotomy was NECESSARY to be performed, because that throat wound, bullet shot from IN FRONT of Kennedy proves ballistics, at least A 2ND GUNMAN, and that proves A CONSPIRACY ]. So many books first hand accounts that refute the official. "Crossfire" by Jim Marrs - good one to start with.
@@stormatsunup Fabrication? Dr McClelland explained that while the tracheotomy procedure was being started. He asked Dr Perry if he'd seen the back of the head. Dr Perry said no, but if you remember, just before Dr McClelland mentions what he had noticed, the tracheotomy procedure had already been started. Geez, I mean all this stuff is happening with room full of people. What was there during that 12 minute period from when the president was wheeled into the room, until they stopped working on him. There was like 12 to13 or more people in Trauma Room 1. (6 Doctors ended up in there), plus the Nurses & a couple SS Agents, plus Jacquelyn Kennedy kept walking in & out...
This wasn't the first interview of McClelland. There was also Dr Crenshaw's interview. Some of them are probably pushed back because of Google's algorithms.....
@@stormatsunup I have a background as a neuro ICU nurse. This would not constitute "brain death" as the medulla which has centers that are involved in some very basic respiratory and cardiac control was still functioning.
Very informative. I appreciate the respectful inclusion of the Catholic priest and the Last Rites.
The professionalism of this man is world class.
I cannot imagine being a doctor in that room that day.
I really liked listening to the Dr.
Thank you City of Allen ACTV for posting this valuable piece of history.
Dr McClelland talks about the large wound at the right rear of his head, not the front right side as manipulated film and the Warren Report would lead us to believe.
Not long from now, all these important people will be gone, and there's few left from that time period as it is... Once their gone, all we'll have left are some video film clip interviews of them and conference discussions, and speaking to go by. If those videos get pulled off of RUclips, that will be it, other than books on the subject.....
It's already been proven that all the copies of the Zapruder film that we've seen, or have/had access to, have been altered, and manipulated to the point, that we might as well call them Fakes...
I've watched the lecture given by David Healy, an authority on the Technical Processes used on Movie Film. He explained what can be, removed &/or added to Film, used in Motion Pictures. He went on to explain that this technology was around long before 1963....
With all that said, I do hope that all the great interviews & discussions that The City of Allen ACTV have posted, will remain on RUclips... So with that, Again, Thank You.......
The Dr was a fantastic listener, very calm demeanour
It's like a breath of fresh air hearing this man talk ....an honest account, no fluff.
....side bar.... His anecdote about the horse....my great grandfather worked for a Timber Merchant here in England in the 20's - 30's and he used to take his horse drawn flat bed trailor about 15 miles to collect Timber from a Port and take the load back to his Timber Yard...he used to say to the Horse that "It was time to go home"..... he'd sit back and have a nap while the Horse took him and the Load back to their Yard.
From what this doctor described, the fatal shot came from the front which is condradictory to what we've been told over the years. Also, the fact the secret service wouldn't allow the pathologist at parkland to perform an autopsy on kennedy is very suspicious.
Mike Martin the president has his own doctors their not going to let anyone else do a autopsy on a president. That goes for any president Secret Service isn’t going to allow that. Nothing suspicious about that. If he would of survived I guarantee they would of brought different Drs in from wherever and took over
@@pmckin92 yes that is their job to protect the president at all cost
@@pmckin92 Explain to me why was Lyndon Johnson at the hospital with Kennedy?? Shouldn’t he be evacuate to safety and not in a comprised US city that served as a war zone when Kennedy was executed in broad daylight ? Or maybe LBJ was at the hospital to make sure that Kennedy’s body left with him. Why would this respected physician lie about what what he witnessed. BLACK OPPS
@@pmckin92 JFK was dead. There was no reason to remove his body before an autopsy. After the autopsy conducted later, it is obvious that the autopsy was to be controlled by the military. Why this was allowed to happen is a curiosity, they prevented a proper autopsy from happening.
The person's chosen to conduct the autopsy had zero experience with gunshot wounds.
Coup d'etet
Zapruder Film was altered: many frames missing and others amateurishly blurring the back of JFK’s head.
Listen to the men at Kodak that took the film and altered it.
Most frames of the actually JFK lethal shot removed; and the frames of the vehicle coming to a stop were removed the Sunday before his funeral. The altered film was an attempt to hide the fact the lethal shot came from the front of the vehicle (the Book Depository building was behind JFK).

Thank you so much for this exceptional interview. What a treasure. 🙏
Amazing. So glad this was documented.
This was outstanding. I'm very glad the good doctor's memories were recorded.
Which memories? He changed his stories a dozen times over the years............And it's on video so there's no disputing what I said.
Many people automatically assume the elderly are decent people because they came from a supposed "decent" time in our history. Not true. He looks and sounds like a lovable grandpa. I don't know anything about him and haven't seen any other interviews, but I know that Drs miss a lot and if one's life is threatened, you do whatever 'they' tell you to do
