Sad thing is, this makes more sense than the obvious fabricated narrative we’ve been told.

the guy in the video is not the crown prince but a tropicana security guard who got called in from a softball game. he is about 5’8”and pudgy, the crown prince is 6’ and slim and full beard.

Probably so.

But why have a massive security guard for a baseball player?

Why have everyone with their hands up unless they are escorting someone/something?

As noted, probably not Salman. But it might be. And given the close-mouthedness of the authorities, nothing can be dismissed out of hand.

Salman Jr. started growing his beard about a year or so ago, right before he ascended. Prior, he looked and dressed like a GQ model. Has to keep it now.

"The assassins in Paddock's room gets[sic] a call"

"assassins"(plural)

That's some fantastic creative think there.

Only problem is it doesn't hold up in the reality of the audio - which only seems to show ONE murderer firing at any given time.

If you've got another example of audio you believe demonstrates multiple active shooters- I'd be happy to look at it.


An analysis of two sequential burts of gunfire between:
["Taxi Driver Video" the Zapruder Film of the Las Vegas shooting UNCUT / UNEDITED]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBbOFwWquAw&feature=youtu.be&t=1m7s
and
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBbOFwWquAw&feature=youtu.be&t=1m24s

===============
T1: Time from start of video (1minute N seconds) at the time of the last shot in the burst.
T2: Time from the start of the video (1minute N seconds) at the time of the echoed sound event corresponding to T1.
TempF: the air temperature (72 degrees F)
FPS:   1130 ft per second -- The speed of sound at 72 degrees F
Elapsed Time:  T2 minus T1, the number of seconds between the last shot, and the echo of the last shot in each burst.
Total Distance:  Elapsed Time * FPS = the total distance traveled between T1 and T2.
Echo Distance  = The distance the echo traveled from the aiming point back to the point of origin.
===============

Conclusion:  Burst B is NOT two weapons being fired simultaneously.  It is one weapon being fired at a more distant target.  The longer distance, observable in the period between Burst B's T1 and T2, manifests a corresponding longer period of reverb.  It is the reverb that is being incorrectly interpreted as a second weapon (and second shooter) firing at the same time.

I remember a failed coup against the House of Saud about 35 years ago. Anyone remember it?

As of 2011, there were about 15,000 members of the Saudi royal family.

They have a lot of princes, and they live large and low, so a few of them dying in a short period of time is not unusual.
