The Bizarre Fan Theory Claiming Paul McCartney Is Dead 

What theories are you a fan of?

The only thing I think is weird about the whole thing is that before 1966 Paul was not taller than the rest of The Beatles then all of a sudden in 1967 he towers over them how is that possible?

if you are a portrait artist - it's easy to see the difference easily. voices are very different.

Had McCartney actually died the bloke who's been impersonating him deserves an accolade for being the best actor in the world

Paul is dead, man. Miss him. Miss him. Miss him.

I thought it was bizarre too until I started looking at the evidence that Mike Williams presented. Now I think life can be even stranger than fiction.

I am afraid Paul McCartney did indeed die in Sep. 1966. After all it would make zero sense for books, and songs about him been dead if he was still alive, that type of joke would be pointless and would have nothing to gain after 57 years. The Billy's Back book contains too much information about him been dead but it is written in a way as described as "masterfully speaking". Also notice how the beatles did not do any open air concerts after Sep. 1966. I am greatly afraid Biological Paul McCartney was murdered on the orders of the UK Kabal because of the Faustian Bargain they entered into with their Tavistock Controllers. Sad that this happened to him but You should never mess around with Demon or Negative Spirits from the Underworld.

To hell with that, they look different. Real one looked kind, soft spoken the other looks kinda mean and has a longer head.

The self published book "The Memoirs of Billy Shears", if it's false - then why didn't McCartney's lawyers put a cease and desist order on it? It also uses several lyrics from the Beatles' back catolgue(again needing legal clearance), and lastly, several other musicians are mentioned in it(e. g. The Rolling Stones, Elton John, Donovan, etc.) - so if it was false, why didn't they they sue the author and publisher?

The new one can read music and play several instruments, two things the original could not.

If you want to know if Paul McCartney died in late 1966 and was replaced it's very easy to do. 1. To have an open mind you must first rid yourself of the idea that it would not be possible. 2. Don't assume that because 99% of people think it's ridiculous, that means it can't be true. 3. Take into account that in the early 60's at the height of Beatlemania, The Beatles were probably one of the UK's biggest exports earning £millions for the British Exchequer, and if all was well would continue to provide £millions more in tax revenue. 4. It's impossible to exaggerate just how popular the Beatles were and how talented they were also. When you watch them performing in the early 60's the affect they had on their mainly female audience was electric, and that was mostly down to the chemistry between all the band members and especially Paul McCartney. Paul had a very confident yet humble way with him that made him very likeable. Even during interviews around that time he was so smiley and witty and there was just this aura humility that surrounded him. 5. Study all the performances of the Beatles from 1963 until late 1966 and pay close attention to the way they all interact. They had been playing together as a band since they were 15 and younger in Georges case. Everything on stage came so natural to them, that even if a mistake was made it never showed. None of them came across as a leader, they were very sharing on stage, and all of them had their own unique style. When John and Paul sang together at the one microphone you could tell the strong love and admiration they each had for the other. 6. In 1966 the Beatles conquered America, but really they were just getting started. Suddenly they announce that they are stopping touring and spend the next 3 years, more or less out of sight in the recording studio creating as many albums as possible. They did come out in 1969 and did a 40 minute concert on the rooftop in central London. If you study this concert especially all their mannerisms you can see that there's something missing. The magic is gone and when you look at the one playing the bass guitar you can see that it's not the same Paul McCartney that drove the fans wild in 1966. He's trying his best but the likeable aura that Paul had is missing, it's clearly a different person. 7. The family of James Paul McCartney must have been persuaded or coerced by Government officials to go along with the charade, it had to be the Government or it would have been investigated, because unless sanctioned by them, I would imagine that taking someones identity would be illegal. Jane Asher was probably hired to continue her relationship with the new Paul, to assist with the whole process of convincing the world that Paul McCartney is alive and well, contrary to the rumours. You can clearly see the new Paul in photos with Jane during 1967 and 1968. 8. It must have been horrific for everyone involved, The McCartney family lost their beloved son and brother, The Beatles lost their beloved Paul, Jane Asher lost her lovely boyfriend but as far as the world was concerned we lost nothing because we didn't know. 9. The most disgusting thing about this whole episode is that by hiding Pauls death from the world, he never got the recognition he deserved. He was loved by so many and yet no tears have been shed, bar those of his family and others in the know.

Tina Foster- Plastic Macca. Read it. Researched PID since 2008. Also, would everyone agree that JPM loved his Mother Mary? Both James Paul McCartney and John Lennon bonded over the loss of their mothers. Where is Mary buried? Or his father Jim? I will keep my opinion to myself when you find out about their remains and about this former BEATLE. One more thing; Why hasn't Paul sued those who claim he is an imposter? This guy wrote a book Memoirs of Billy Shears. Who is HE? (RHETORICAL)

I remember a tale claiming that if you played a certain part of a certain Beatles track backwards, you would hear a voice “eerily like that of Paul McCartney” saying, “Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated. Actually, I died while still a child. Our latest album successfully promoted. The joke’s on you. The bill, too.” A good story that should not be spoiled with too much truth. 😸

He is dead, do the research and compare the two and its all there right infront of you. 👁

If he was dead the guy pretending to be him needs every single acting award there is like wtf

In today’s World of mass media & instant social networking, this theory wouldn’t last 24 hours. But in the year I graduated high school, 1969, it was all very real to us rock fans. I was more into Zeppelin & the Stones, but I do remember looking at all my Beatles album covers with a magnifying glass, trying to find the clues.

I can see John, Paul, George and Ringo sitting around getting high, passing a doobie some time between Revolver and Sgt. Pepper's and John blurts out, "Hey, mates! Want to play a trick on the whole world?.." They giggle for hours amongst themselves...

The girl fans of the Beatles all knew! They had posters of the cutest Beatle Paul hanging in their bedrooms. They saw a humble little man with a round face - and suddenly in 1967 a new lanky Paul, with a long face! Not near as handsome,- talented, but a completely different extroverted personality! Billy is out there everyday Beatle-ing for 54 plus years now. Ugghhh. We need Justice for the true Paul McCartney, who was never mourned.

Good video, as far as it goes, but you have to ask, why did Paul continue to put "dead clues" in his post-Beatle albums? After all, if "Life is just a bowl of cherries", why is there a bowl with no cherries in it on the cover of the 1970 McCartney album? When you die and go to heaven, you get your WINGS. Flowers in the Dirt, like in a graveyard. Everyone there is waiting for the day of the Resurrection when they'll fly "Off The Ground". And that pose on the cover of "Good Evening New York City" - a famous death depicted. There's more to the picture than meets the eye, as Neil Young said.

The Faul theory still exists

McCartney refuses to give his dna to this day

This video covers a lot, but they skipped one detail about the Abbey Road cover. Paul is out of step with the others. While he leads with his right leg, John, Ringo and George lead with their left legs. Which I suppose we might explain by suggesting that Paul, being famously left-handed, might lead with the other leg, except of course that Ringo is also left-handed and should have led with his opposite leg too. Anyway, it’s fun to dig around with this rumor - unless you’re Paul McCartney, that is.

The Beatles were not only ahead musically, but with their marketing as well.

This is all old stuff. Forget the clues. What you see is not James Paul. How do you grow 2 inches in a year. Billy shears is an actor. Played Vivian Stanshall who he retired in 1995. If you look that up you will find both Vivian and his wife died in 1995. Appears in Maui Al mystery tour. Was around before 66 and often stood in as a double. had is own band Billy Pepper and Pepper pots. Forget the clues. Your analysis is wrong.

William Shepherd is his name

Breaking out of the matrix starts with understanding who these ppl were and what they represented. After that, things get much easier to extrapolate.

The older Billy / FAUL gets the more obvious he’s not Paul.

Some people just have too much free time on their hands.

Paul's last LP Eygpt station has a couple clues in fact every one he released had hint's and clue's..and evry Beatles LP's had them..alot more than with this show//

Some years back I picked up a number copy of the white album. All of the collectible items were with it with one exception. Paul's head shot so maybe he is dead.

This goes back to Crowley, Mike Williams sage of quay channel for the real research

Look at the RU-vid video of Day Tripper and look at Paul, then tell me that Paul looks anything like the Paul McCartney on the inside of Srgt pepper. Height differences between 1964 Paul and 1967 on Paul Read Memoirs of Billy Shears and the updated Billy's Back We have been conditioned to the Paul we know for over 56 years. I will say, the guy who replaced the original Paul, is much more talented in every aspect of the music industry and instruments he can play. So don't so easily dismiss that it didn't happen. The Author of the books would also be sued for copyright infringement. Even look at memoirs of Paul McCartney and it links you to memoirs of Billy Shears including differences in images with one of the same body and different heads.

The McCartney of today is a sort of fusion between Paul, Faul and Linda. It is like an old gentle lady with untidy hair and always looking for a cup of tea. I think John would roll his eyes LOL

There used to be a lot of good videos on this subject on RU-vid. Seems like they've thinned them out some, however. Rumble still has many of them. Most of the ones on Rumble are in agreement that the real Paul did die in 1966. There is much evidence to that. And so many books have been written on this. If you ask me, from all of my research of much of the material out there, I'd say that he is indeed dead. It just all makes sense. They simply had to keep this money-making band going.

There’s going to be people dead that you think are alive. And alive when you thought they were dead. Where in a fight . Good against evil. WWGOWGA

Kinda insane that you didn't talk about his musical skills. His early work all sounded the same. Root notes, 5ths and 3rds. Few months later he became a different bass player. I don't think he is dead. Just would have been a great point. More so than anything else on this video.

Heather found out the truth and became scared and angry!

It was a fake mustache. It was a fake mustache. Make no mistake about it. The walrus was Paul. Maybe I’m crazy. I don’t think so but, maybe you’re right.

I hope that the truth will come out in the future

The song Sub Rosa Subway by Klaatu sounded like the Beatles.Other Songs also sounded like other groups.The one about space craft sounded like the Bee Gees,the one about California sounded like the Beach Boys,the one about Sir Rugglesby sounded like the Muppets.

People that believe this will and people that don't won't, I would like to refer a video that shows that it was done deliberately , on mccartneys memory almost full, my gratitude , there is a clear reversal, you don't have to listen closely when he says repeatedly who is this now, who is this now, I was willie Campbell. I was willie Campbell, so who is this now, who is this now, I just get tired of people who's minds are so set that this just can't be, that nothing will ever change their minds, never even bother to ever even submit a possibility.

Would love to see a hand writing expert do a signature analysis of before and after 1966

The title of this podcast deals with the theory that the original paul might be dead. What do people expect to read when there are comments on a podcast dealing with this subject matter. They go on a site like this and they act shocked when they see pid comments. And there is no excuse for being nasty and belligerant. Mature adults can have a civil debate, based on observations and facts.

Some say he retired and could not stand the game. The caretaker of the McCartney family home was "Paul's double". He married Paul's high school sweetheart.

The number plate on the white Beetle is actually „LMW 281F“ which, if my maths is correct, means it was registered in 1965. it is not 28IF as stated by this conspiracy 😉

How can if anyone has the subsequent albums not know for sure that the album-off the ground is for sure really npaul as well as chaos and creation in the backyard you can feel his presence enough to reach out and hug him🥰🥰❤️

Ontario Provincial Police O.P.P not O.P.D.

Why hasn't anyone performed DNA testing?

the motorcycle accident, car crash, Abbey Rd crossing 'sign' all emanates from the fact that Lennon and Macca had a scrap in which Macca got punched in the gob by Lennon, see scar on lip. this could never allowed to be reported as it would damage the lovable mop tops image, so multiple cover up stories proliferated, basically mass hysteria at worst in reality just chinese whispers.

Billy Shear's 🎯

Just look at before 66 than after 66, 2 different people.even different eye color.the fake is taller .even george called him Beatle bill.

I knew a kid who believed it.He told me about the clues on the albums and lyrics.I asked why would they hide his death and simultaneously given clues he was dead.He had no answer.The only people in the UK whose death would have harder to conceal than the most popular member of the world's biggest musical act would have been a member of the Royal Family.

It's not that bizarre if you were to do a side by side facial comparison of Paul and his replacement. Draw your own conclusions.

Why not ask Michael McCartney, Pauls Brother about this and hear what he has to say ?

When someone doesn't want to believe something there could be so much proof it could be slapping them in the face, and they still won't believe it. No one can look at Paul 1966 and back, then look at "Paul" 1967 on out and see the same person, unless they so badly want it to be the same person, then they see what they want to see, not necessarily what's really there. It's human nature.

Why is this Paul 6 inches taller than the original.. when this Fail was arrested in Japan his fingerprints were different.Took the British secret service to get him out. This Paul's wife almost told the truth on an interview. His farm is in Scotland as his family is from there not Liverpool. This Aul did not attend the original's father's funeral.

Seems strange hhat Jane Asher disappeared as well. It all makes sense he did die

'Those freaks wuz right when they said you wuz dead'-John Lennon. Originally an insult,but I find the 'freaks' part to be risive.

Oh boy the imposter definitely is extremely talented

the best way to deny something is real is to make a movie tv show about also is to deny it as a conspiracy theory just saying

Well it isn't a theory if you go looking. Folks ignore this obvious hit piece..... Mark Devlin and Mike Williams Sage of Quay channels on YT and elsewhere. You're going to be shocked....

Hold the paper up !!!!! All signed up to do their masters will

Billy is playing Manchester in 2024. Do your research.

Paul/ Faul Differences between Pre 66 Paul and Post 66 Paul/ Faul. Brown eyes to green. Round face to long face. Hair parted on left to right. Drinks and smokes with left hand changes to right hand? Dozens of photos. Post 66 Paul is called Faul and Billy by many. Paul was a Skilled guitar player, never looked down, Faul an awkward guitar player to often looks down at guitar. Faul says many times that he is an imposter he seems to say this in jest but is it really? Shoe size goes from 8 to 9.5 Grew in height about three or four inches. Faul has a Longer and bigger face. Wider shoulders Pre 66 Paul was loved by the group, post he is not liked. Melodic rich voice with wide range to a good voice but not the same. Compare the Yesterday song. 77 Beatle interviews to two Post 66 Beatles grew long hair & beards and hippie clothes to divert attention away from the new different Paul/Faul. Other evidence: Jane Asher said: May 1967, She had found McCartney to be completely different, that he had "changed so much, and their engagement was called off. Wikki. Faul did not attend his father's funeral, a man the Paul loved. Ringo said Paul doesn't use his Liverpool accent any more. Paul had great wit, did not do drugs, dressed well. Heather Mills said she had a box of evidence that would show Faul betrayed her and that her life was in danger. Paul's brother Mike said the last time he saw his brother was at his funeral. When Faul was arrested in Japan his fingerprints did not match his prints taken in Hamberg years before and he was held for nine days accused s being a fraud. A paternity test did not match Faul but Paul had been supporting her financially years before. Three Beatles without Faul called themselves the fan three and George said without Billy pig. Paul's songs are a completely different style than Fauls songs. Meaningful witty Love songs to superficial pop songs. Both good but different. Paul said he only wears black socks he can't stand colored socks, Faul wears colored socks. Faul called Ringo his younger brother yet Paul was born in 42 and Ringo in 40. Faul was born in 37 making him older than Ringo. John Lenin admitted to Tom Snyder that he was putting out subliminal message about the death of Paul to give the state the Beatles were in. Paul had been killed. "it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled" is often attributed to Mark Twain,

I’m right handed and hold a cig with my left hand. Need to keep my righ hand open and free.

Oh, come on… he doesn’t look THAT bad!

Comunque credo che quello vero si sia fatto sostituire volontariamente perché voleva vivere una vita più tranquilla e meno movimentata e ha trovato forse un amico di vecchia data che con qualche ritocchino chirurgico lo a poi sostituito e credo che entrambi guadagnino perché se quello vero e ancora vivo collaborano alla stesura e l'uscita di nuovi.brani non ci trovo niente di male

This new Paul had to learn to play bass left handed as Paul did. He can read music and play a wide array of instruments that Paul could not. Out of all the fill in impostors they used for Paul he was the best. The British government would have lost millions if the Beatles folded. They sell it by saying young girls would be upset. Thus Faul went through several surgeries to assume the role. One of the reasons he was knighted with a Sir.

People need to really WATCH the movies they are “watching” people need to LISTEN to the music they’re “listening” too. In this day and age, if the truth of the world isn’t absolutely slapping you in the face, I wish you the best for eternity 🔥 Praise be to the King of Kings 🙏🏼

Not sure if people know, but the reason Paul looked taller than the others on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's was because he stood on a stage. The drum was also on it. Look at the other photos from that day and you'll see he's not taller.

So who is collecting all the royalties? Faul? Billy? John said if Paul was dead he would have told the world.

Read the “ memoirs of billy shears “ Thomas eu Harriet …. Masterpiece

I thought I was the only one that could hear Radio Free Tinfoil. It's nice to know so many of us share this lovely rubber room. Still, some of you really need to go to night school and learn how to spell.

Billy has done a greatboscar worthy job

Dave Grohl say's no.

Rest in Peace, Saint PAUL (1942-1966)

To make fun of the topic and make a mockery of it, they say that all the Beatles have been replaced, or that all the rock musicians have been replaced. In fact, this is done to blur the subject. And the subject is that Paul was murdered. A ritual murder. Then they decided to experiment. Will people notice the substitution? Someone noticed, but chose to remain silent.

Please check several videos from the 60's the eyebrows of Paul were bigger and way above the eyes and more rounded face looks different from the other pictures and videos maybe yes maybe not 😎

Why did Paul McCartney go from a loveable, charming, unimposing young man to a dictatorial, overbearing, perfectionist?

The true story of the Beatles, written by Billy Sheperd, June1964, paperback. Back cover states: "this is our true story as we told it to Billy Sheperd" along with the bands picture and facsimile autographs... he also wrote several articles for the Beatles monthly magazines... interesting...

Eyebrows not same

This theory is so pathetic i thought it was a joke at first like how can something be so dumb💀

Bill is not dead

You can’t buy this kind of publicity! I love it!

Remembering all this nonsense ended up hurting very badly years later when John was assassinated....no one would shoot John Lennon and the shock thereafter that it was true was far more intensified.

For God's sake give this crap a rest.

"Billy Whizz" is a British slang term for the drug amphetamin/speed. Paul's Farm is in "Campbell"town On the cover of Ram Paul is holding a sheep = Shepherd All jokes amongst the band. Paul is a workaholic. Im from Northern England. Beatle Bill would be a name given to a speed using Paul. Billy Wizz is a common term.

The interview with Paul’s brother is sad 😔 that was proof enough

Legendaris Pauld❤

I know the truth of this so called conspiracy. If you can grow an extra toe at age 24 then it's Paul. If you can't then it's Billy playing Paul. 2+2=4...as simple as that.

RIP PAUL!! ❤❤❤❤

Doesn't matter..who ever he is i applaud him.....great performer.thanks for the entertainment

Every old theory is new again.

Oh good grief!! People will believe anything and come up with all kinds of conspiracy theories just to get attention. This is ridiculous. 🙄

Wait...

Well it doesn’t matter as long the music is great, the real question need to ask is the original manager, John Lennon, George Harrison but they are dead, I have read somewhere that the UK Government create this band with different look alike but it just crazy fascinating isn’t it. Maybe the real Paul said enough is enough and decide to get off the grid for good. Whose knows.

Ma ha anche un buon stile entrambi sanno fare il loro lavoro

I saw Paul in person at Bonnaroo, he’s alive.

62-66 Paul had beautiful eyes but they didn't carry thru & no-one could change that much even thru age but we'll have to decide for ourselves what is true or not & the only Paul I grew up with was from 1970 to the present. Wouldn't it be silly if Paul has always been Paul & he just aged badly, ooh, I don't know what to believe anymore but he DID change alot & there is a difference.

To assume Paul died is to assume all of Paul's family members are liars.
