Ilford 120, for instance, is a real chore to get off the paper without sending a little flash of static electricity. When it fogs film (the little flash) it usually does it from the edge and then inwards, not like your little defect. But who knows? It sure is a strange one. Fuji film, Fomapan don't use the same kind of tape as Ilford films. It could be that your brand of film is liable to do this to (this= flashing when ripped off).
