Did Paul McCartney surely Die

Did Paul McCartney absolutely Die? Some crazy theories never seem to want to fade away. This is the case with the famous Paul McCartney's death rumor that started at the time that the Beatles were recording the "Sgt. Pepper's" album.

The rumor seems to have started when in 1969 a listener to a Detroit radio center called into the station, claiming to be somebody named Tom, and told the Disc Jockey, Russ Gibb, that a few of the Beatles records contained clues that were evidence to the fact that Paul had died in a car accident, supposedly mangling the singer/bassist so bad that dental records had to be used to recognize the body. Other theories said that he was absolutely decapitated, so it depends on whom you believe.

P Diddy Coming Home Lyrics

Here's where it gets absolutely good. According to the myth, after McCartney's death, the band held a contest to find a Paul McCartney look alike to replace the singer so that fans would not know that he had died and the band could carry on without missing a beat.

The winner of this contest was supposed to have been a guy named William Campbell, an actor who looked enough like McCartney that the band would be able to get away with the whole charade.

Luckily for the remaining members of the band, Campbell happened to be an orphan from Edinburgh so he would never be missed, and absolutely have the same voice and played bass amazingly just like Paul. Plastic surgical operation was used to plane out the minor differences. They failed to fix a scar on Campbell's upper lip - this is how you can tell authentic McCartney photos from the Campbell ones.

According to many, there were numerous clues to Paul's death found on varied albums and album covers to prove this theory. A few worth mentioning were on the Abbey Road cover.

This is the famous cover (probably made much more famous from this radical law actually) where the four members of the Beatles are walking over the street on a zebra crossing on Abbey Road itself.

One of the trigger giveaways was the fact that they were lined up in a row, which seemed to relate a funeral procession. Other clue was the clothing that the four members wore in the picture.

Lennon was leading in all white, which represented the church, and in the back was Harrison who wore what looked to be work clothes, representing the gravedigger of the bunch.

McCartney was barefoot indicating that like other cultures he would be buried barefoot, as well as the fact that he was retention a cigarette in his right hand when every person knew that the real Paul McCartney was left handed.

Many other clues were found, of course, within song lyrics and in other places on album covers. The deliberate upon absolutely grew to be pretty huge, and ultimately the band, and McCartney himself had to do an interview himself to disband the rumors.

Some reckon that the band was probably subsequently feeding into the ridiculousness of it all adding tidbits of their own clues here and there, but no member has yet to ever admit to doing so.

The Clues in FullButcher Album

The bloody meat and varied baby doll parts relate the horrible nature of the car accident. Notice the set of teeth of Paul's right arm. They signify that Paul's teeth were knocked out in the car crash. This rendered dental records unavailable as a means for identifying the body. George is retention the head of a baby doll next to Paul's head, to signify that Paul was decapitated in the accident. 'Yesterday' "I believe in yesterday, suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be, there's a shadow hanging over me. Yesterday came suddenly..." Paul is no longer himself. Or He's not who we think he is. 'Dr. Robert' "He does everything he can, Dr. Robert." Dr. Robert did everything he could to save Paul's life after the accident. 'Nowhere Man' "you don't know what you're missing, nowhere man can you see me at all?" Paul's is no longer around, and from where he is (buried) he can not see anyone. 'And Your Bird Can Sing' "you can't see me" "you can't hear me" Other reference to Paul being buried. Yesterday & Today Paul is sitting inside the trunk. The trunk represents a coffin. This is one of the first photographs showing a scar on Paul's upper lip. A sign that this is the imposter William Campbell sitting in for photo sessions.
Rubber Soul The photo is taken from the prospective of the real Paul McCartney seeing up from his grave. The title of the album is written in the shape of an upside down heart.
Revolver Some population say that since Paul is the only Beatle not facing forward, that it means that he is not 'one of them' anymore. 'Taxman' "If you drive a car *Paul*" Reinforces the fact that Paul died in a car accident."If you get too cold *Paul*" A reference to the state of a body after death. "My guidance to those who die - Taxman" Think of 'Taxman' as a Taxidermist - one who preserves the remains of the dead. 'Yellow Submarine' "...sky of blue, sea of green in our yellow submarine" The yellow submarine represents a coffin, buried under a sea of green which represents the grass. "... In the land of submarines" In a cemetery - in the land of coffins. 'Go To Get You Into My Life' "I took a ride, I didn't know what I would find there" Other reference to a car ride. "...and then suddenly I see you" Once you read the Sgt. Pepper clues you will perceive that he saw Lovely Rita. 'Tomorrow Never Knows' "*Paul* played the game existence to the end" Life is the 'game of existence' and when you die the game ends. The song title is taken from the 'Tibetan Book of the Dead.' Sgt. Peppers The population are seeing at what appears to be a freshly dug grave. The yellow flowers (directly below the flowers that spell Beatles) are in the shape of a bass guitar. Paul was the bass player for The Beatles. There are three sticks on the yellow flowers that relate the strings of the bass. There are only Three sticks to relate the Three remaining Beatles. Also, observation that the yellow flowers spell out 'Paul?'; questioning Paul's existence. The doll on the right of the cover (in the white, black, and red stripes) has a small white car, with a blood red interior, on her lap. This is a model of the car that Paul died in. Directly below the doll's left foot is a white vase with yellow flowers in it. If you look intimately it resembles a car plummeting over a cliff with flames coming out of the back end. Below the 'T' in Beatles is a sculpture of the Hindu God Shiva 'The Destroyer.' Its hand points directly to Paul. Notice The Beatles standing behind the drum in the center of the photo. They are standing sideways except for Paul who is facing directly forward. John, Ringo, and George look *three dimensional* while Paul looks like one of the cardboard cutouts. Paul is the only one retention a black instrument. Black is associated with death. This may seem insignificant now, but it turns up a few more times. This is the first opening where we see an open palm above Paul McCartney's head. There are many separate theories as to what this signifies. It is generally taken to mean whether that the person under the open palm will soon die or has recently passed away. As you will see, this turns up quite a few times. Take a small mirror, or the lowest of a Cd will work, and place it perpendicular to the center of the drum, so that you split 'Lonely Hearts' in half. Now read the combined writing on the drum and the mirror. It says 1 One 1 X He | Die. '1 One 1' equals three, Other reference to three Beatles. The 'X' crosses out Paul because he is no longer alive. And the arrow in the middle of 'He' and 'Die' points directly to Paul. The Fab Four are sitting facing the camera. On Paul's left arm is a patch that says O. P. D. (Officially Pronounced Dead), much like D. O. A. (Dead on Arrival). The photo was taken at such an angle, and with Paul's sleeve folded, so that it appears to say O. P. D. When in reality it reads O. P. P. This stands for the 'Ontario Provincial Police.' Another interpretation is that William Campbell was once a police officer in Canada. The lyrics to 'She Came in straight through the Bathroom Window' interpret this.
For those of you who do not have the Lp, it should be stated that the album had the the lyrics printed on the back cover, layered over a photo of the Beatles. Those of you with the Cd will find that photo on pages 12 and 13 of the Cd booklet. Paul is facing backwards, to signify that the man in the photo is an imposter. Paul, George, and John were all about the same height, but in this photo Paul appears higher than the other two. This represents that he is *rising up,* ascending if you will. The words "Without You" are coming out the side of Paul's head, from the song title "Within You, Without you." George's thumb is pointing to the lyrics "Wednesday morning at 5 o'clock," the time of Paul's death. George's (in red) hand makes an L, John's (in green) a V, and Ringo's (in pink) an E. Paul (in blue) is the Hole where the O would be in the word Love. 'Sgt. Pepper'S Lonely Hearts Club Band' "Let me introduce to you the one and only Billy Shears" As I mentioned earlier, Paul was supposedly supplanted by William Campbell. Billy is a nickname for William. Also, Billy Shears can be seen as a play on words. Billy Shears-> Billy'S hears-> Billy's Here. As though they were introducing William (Billy) to the world. 'She'S Leaving Home' "Wednesday morning at five o'clock" The time when the car crisis occurred.'Lovely Rita' "When I caught a look of Rita" Paul was seeing at Rita and not paying concentration to the road. 'Good Morning, Good Morning' "Nothing to do to save his life" " You are own you're own, you are in the street" References to the car accident. "People running around, it's five o'clock" Other reference to the time of the accident."Watching the skirts, you start to flirt, now you're in gear" Refers to Paul watching Rita. "In Gear" refers to driving. 'A Day In The Life' "He blew his mind out in a car, he didn't observation that the lights had changed" Describes, in more detail, the accident. Yellow Submarine The yellow submarine looks as though it is buried inside the hill that the Beatles are standing on. (read the Lyric Clues below to good understand) This is the first opening where we see an open palm above Paul McCartney's head. There are many separate theories as to what this signifies. It's generally taken to mean whether that the person under the open palm will soon die or has recently passed away. As you will see, this turns up quite a few times. 'Yellow Submarine' "...sky of blue, sea of green in our yellow submarine" The yellow submarine represents a coffin, buried under a sea of green which represents the grass. "... In the land of submarines" In a cemetery - in the land of coffins. 'All You Need Is Love' "Yes he's dead... We loved you yeah, yeah, yeah." If you listen intimately to the end of the track, you can hear John Lennon sing the two lines mentioned above 'Only A Northern Song' "When you are listening...you may think that the band is not quite right... The band is a small dark and out of key, you're correct, there's nobody there" Paul played the bass guitar. generally the bass player keeps the rhythm for the band. The band would not sound right if Paul was playing. Magical difficulty Tour Paul is the Walrus. He is the only one in black. We know Paul is the Walrus from the song 'Glass Onion.'
This booklet came with the traditional album, and is not included in subsequent reprints nor is it in the Cd. Throughout the booklet Paul is shown without shoes. Generally, population are buried without shoes. Page 1; Paul's magicians hat is pulled down over his face. Hiding his face because it is not absolutely him. Page 3; Paul sits under crossed flags.

Paged 4 & 5; Ringo's drum reads "Love The 3 Beatles." If you turn it sideways the population in white spell out "Rip." 'I Am The Walrus' "Bury me, bury me, bury my body" "Oh untimely death" This can be heard if you listen intimately to the person speaking in the background at the end of the song. "goo goo goo joob" These are said to be the last words of Humpty Dumpty's before he fell and cracked his head. 'Strawberry Fields Forever' "I buried Paul" John Lennon says when the song fades back in. The Beatles Anthology #2 states that John Lennon absolutely said "Cranberry Sauce." But if you listen to this version you can clearly hear that this phrase has been manipulated to sound like "I buried Paul." 'All You Need Is Love' "Yes he's dead... We love you yeah, yeah, yeah." If you listen intimately to the end of the track, you can hear John Lennon sing the two lines mentioned above White Album Page numbers are for the Cd booklet. The booklet is a reassembled version of the poster that came with the traditional Lp. Page 7 lowest right: A photo of Paul dancing. If you look intimately you can see what appears to be two skeletal hands reaching for him. Page 14: A large photo of Paul clearly shows the scar on his lip. Those of you with the Lp received this photo as an 8x10. Page 18: (bottom right corner, near the photo of George Harrison) A photo of William Campbell before the plastic surgery. 'Glass Onion' "Looking straight through a glass onion." A glass onion is a term for a coffin with a glass top. "I told you about the Walrus and me - man. We are as close as can be - man. Well here's Other Clue for you all, the Walrus was Paul" John tells us the Walrus on the cover of the Magical difficulty Tour was Paul. 'While My Guitar gently Weeps' "Paul, Paul, Paul, Paul......" At the fade out of the song you can hear George sing this. He is crying out for Paul. 'I'M So Tired' Played send it is gibberish, but backwards it says "Paul is Dead man, Miss him, Miss him" Those of you with albums plainly spin the album backwards. For those with Cd's, use the Cd-Rom drive on your computer.'Revolution #9' Played send "Number nine, estimate nine..." but backwards it says "Turn me on dead man, turn me on dead man..." This one is quite audible and very clear. Also, there are nine letters in the name McCartney. 'Don'T Pass Me By' "You were in a car crash..." Other reference to a car crash. "...and you lost your hair" Yet Other reference to head injuries. Abbey Road In the procession over the street, John represents the Preacher (or God), Ringo represents a Pall Bearer (or undertaker), Paul is the Deceased, and George is the Grave Digger. Paul's eyes are complete and he is in his bare feet, both representative of a corpse. Paul is out of step with the other Beatles - his right foot is forward, the others are leading with their left foot. Paul is smoking with his right hand. Paul played the bass as a lefty. This shows that an imposter was brought in for the photograph. An ambulance, or a morgue wagon, is parked on the right side of the street. The car in the background appears to be headed directly at Paul. The Vw bug that is parked on the left side of the street has a license plate that says '28If'. Paul would have been 28 when this album was released, If he would have lived. The license plate also says 'Lmw' which stands for 'Linda McCartney Weeps.' Or "Linda McCartney Widow" If you connect the dots they form a 3 - the three remaining Beatles. There is a crack in the letters that spells 'Beatles.'

'Come Together' "Come together right now over me" Over Paul's grave. "One and One and One is Three" Other reference to three Beatles, not four. "He got monkey fingers" The fingers of dead population curl up like monkeys. "He got hair, down below his knees." When population die the hair continues to grow. 'She Came In straight through The Bathroom Window' "So I quit the police division and got myself a steady job" Explains that William must have been a police officer. This also explains the Opd patch from Sgt. Pepper's.
Final Thoughts Some population may believe this or not but I think most population take it in fun. Paul himself has mentioned this in interviews in a light hearted way. No one will ever know if this was created by Pr population to promote the Beatles records or if the Beatles themselves added clues for a laugh to play along with the joke?.

Read the clues and make up your own mind.
