Myth Busting

The Myth:

[Walt Disney had a wonderful eye for animation. His artists and film recordists wanted to test this so, in compiling an early sequence of film for Walt to view they added one frame of a naked woman. (Considering Disney works at 24 frames per seconds it would take a great eye to spot this lady.)

During the pre-showing to Walt the offenders in question waited for the scene to appear; it did and Walt said nothing. When the film was over, Walt turned to them and said, "Whose idea was it to add the naked woman?" To which someone replied, "We did it to see if you would notice." "I did," Walt said; then added "and you are all fired!"] (Courtesy: Snopes).

The Bust:

I'm going to attempt to disprove this myth by proving that 1 frame out of 24 in the period of 1 second will NOT be noticed. To see if I succeed in busting this myth:

I'm not able to access your file. I believe the technical term is "backwash" and it lasts until one micro-second beyond the pale.
