Here is a great site LOADS of pics and some great 'clues'!

Man, just when you think things can't get any more far fetched, there's always more.
The good thing about that site though is that it has compiled all the available 'clues' and just lets people decide for themselves.
By the way, I added your clues to my original post - hope you don't mind!
To those who argue the 28IF clue--yes, he'd have been 27, but 'Paul Is Dead' theorists counter that, in some Indian cultures, you are given an extra year for time spent in the womb, ergo 28 years old.
This so-called Liverpudlian doesn't like football? There's another proof that this is not the real Paul McCartney, but an American stand-in.
Blimey, that is THE clue of the century - and it was SO glaringly obvious! I have just converted to Paulisdeadism! ;D
Here are some photo comparisons I've made because...
ummmm....
I'd rather not say. :P

I actually did a speech on this last semester for, well, Speech class. At about 5 - 7 minutes, I couldn't get into conspiracy theories, but I did provide the basic gist of the routine album/song/backwards clues, plus a clip from a radio broadcast that helped spread the word of this hoax (thanks again, Al!). Suffice to say, easy A :P
My English term paper last semester was also on the hoax. Another easy A, and I was surprised that it was written so well! When you're interested in something so much, it's very easy to write and write and get caught up, as opposed to something you're just bsing and getting out of the way. If only I could find some way to incorporate this kind of stuff in all future college papers...
Some more for those of you ... ::)

I expect we could find some pre 1966 ones if we really tried hard enough! ;D
One of the major clues on Abbey Road was Paul holding a cigarette in his right hand, being a lefthander. But he already did that in 1963:
i actually think that paul's faced changed a bit after 66/67 though.
Tell me it's not true!!! lol
what is that clue?
The difference is like"Night and day".
Make that "Night and later that same night"... ;)

I have another clue! I was watching the Free As A Bird music video today, and there was this one scene where John and a bunch of people were at the end of a crosswalk, and there was this car. It looked like the ar had crashed and there were a bunch of policemen there. It COULD have been Paul in that car.
Oh, the Free As A Bird video is well known for lots of clues.
Today in class, FNU and I thought of a Ringo Is Dead thing, a Georgie is Dead thing, and a John Is Dead As Well thing. We have cluse and everything!
You know how Ringo now wears sunglasses? Well, the Ringo we know has blue eyes. But the Ringo replacement doesn't have blue eyes, so he wears sunglasses!
There's some good ones for John and George.
([url]http://www.aref-adib.com/archives/arafatstar.jpg[/url])
LOL. And I've long wondered why Ringo won't go without his sunglasses. Now we know the "truth." :P :P ;D
There's this one chap on Youtube with over 77 videos about the PiD conspiracy. o__o This fellow has a LOT of time on his hands.
Yeah, that guy. Did he? XD
I'm not quite intersted enough to watch them all, really. X3

It's coming out on Paul's birthday, lol.
Oh, the Free As A Bird video is well known for lots of clues.
So what about the hundreds of well-documented 'clues' that suggest that Paul Is Dead? Here my theory gets a little strange, so bear with me. I see it as a manifestation of cosmic humour, synchronicity rather than coincidence. Strange things can happen when massive amounts of energy are unleashed, such as they were in the 1960s when the acid fad was at its height. In a way the 'clues' were an expression of the energy of the universe (operating on the chaotic principles of self-organisation) poking fun at McCartney for keeping his ego intact instead of experiencing the oneness with everything that so profoundly affected the other Beatles.
So that's my theory, my theory that it is. The truth is out there, eh?
It's all a BIG JOKE! ;D
We all pretty much explained it that way in 1969.
I like how Paul toyed with David Letterman during his appearance on Letterman's show....
Paul: “I mean, you know, I just laughed at it and knew it was just because of the fame and the craziness. It was American DJs, so you guys are to blame. Not you personally, but – no, the thing is you know, I just laughed it off, but it was a little bit strange ‘cause people did start looking at me like, ‘Is it, is it him or a very good double?’”
Letterman: “Well, that was the idea. That was the other part of it, that there was a guy who looked like you taking your place,”
Paul: (pointing to himself) "Well, no, this is him...(then smiling at the audience)...or is it?"
I saw a guy today wearing a "PAUL IS DEAD!" shirt. I just stared and stared.
>:( >:( >:( >:( Gaaah!
in Abby Road, Paul barefoot and expresses that he is not connected to ground, ie, dead ...
Besides in the song "strawberry fields forever" section made by the song backwards.
John says: "I buried Paul".
sed hh.... :'(
Since we all know he has not shown up officially since September 16, 1966 from that English shindig in London, a lot of years Jackson may not have looked that great as we all know, after he destroyed his face for some funky reason, but his type of music was darn very good by itself notwithstanding his personal problems he had out in society. His performances and showmanship is hard to forget. I was lucky to meet him in person, to talk to him and see him,
i rather read his bollocks than teenage girls sh*t about highschool
The point I was trying to say with the proof included so you wouldn't doubt meNo offense, but what proof? All you've presented so far are theories. "Investigators say..." or "scientists found out that..." doesn't mean anything unless you can at least give us some names, numbers and details. The shape of his skull changed? Says who and where's the undeniable proof? His voice changed? Which experts confirm this? He just learned how to play bass and guitar with his wrong hand? That's possible, but I can assure you that if you're going to train a right-handed adult (the older you are, the slower you learn) to play bass and guitar with his left hand, it'll take him many years before he'll be as good as Paul was at the time, if he'll ever get there at all.
I have information about John Lennon, submitted to me from a Attorney who investigated the incident himself. This attorney is one of the most respected peopleSome of the greatest swindlers in history were smart, respectable people in high positions.

Ears don't get bigger or smaller once fully grown.
Speaking of about John Lennon to say a few words, David Chapman was actually set up, unknown to him by two people, and he was not the person who killed John. He was there for something else, and he did accomplished it and as it turns out he was there at the wrong time and place when John got shot. One very good piece of evidence can prove it, as there is no way a bullet can make a 90 degree turn to hit the left side on the back when David Chapman was verified to be on the right side of Lennon at the time he was shot. You can pretty much zero in who the killer was. Don't let that escape you or let it deny you. When you realize a few things from that investigation, it will come to you as a shock and the real killer is still walking around free as a bird. It is not often that a innocent person gets blamed for something they did not do as most of the time the killers do get caught. Now ask yourself this question > Why would someone simply sit on a curb across the place where John got shot? Duh???? Usually when someone shoots someone they get the hell out of there and do their best to escape and not get caught. Even if you are mental in the head you will still run like hell!!!! This guy Chapman was simply sitting on the curb!!!!!! It was this part that caught the attention of some well respected attorneys, and they hired some experts and investigated the entire case and their findings will shock you indeed. The investigation clears Chapman of the killing. I will leave you the clue of who the real killer is from the song of Come Together> """He got ONO sideboard""""
Actually, they do. Your ears and nose never stop growing.

The ears joost is like the fingerprints of a person. The ears do not change over time
I forgot to mention about Billy Shears, and he is a natural left handed person.
I disagree, your ears and nose once grown do not change. Mine haven't for the last 40 years.

Daveyo
How many of you believe the person you see today is not the real Paul.
:) Not exactly my choice of words, but I agree with your general thrust. We all come here for different reasons.
And another thing.....
you're trying to convince us that in 1966, someone (who Dr Evil?) convinced John Lennon (who was still the bands principlal hit songwriter) that not only was Paul being replaced, but that this imposter was going to be made the bands principal focus whose songs would be given preference over his, and given credit for Pepper, MMT and Let It Be.
we look a lot alike
daveyo if you really can come up with dna i might believe you. earlobes are no fingerprints and certainly not dna. i did check the king is naked forum and almost joined. then i realized pigs are smart animals. but it is hilarious i must admit. o and dont worry about peter graves. it was only his standin that died.
just what it will take for you to believe about the Real Paul being allegedly replaced or be convinced that he might be dead.
Example: DNA from Faul vs DNA from his brother Michael, or DNA from Faul vs DNA from the Real Paul (provided one can find his body somehow). I think the best bet is Michael direct closest decendent, and would this be sufficient for many of you?Yeah, if you can show me an official DNA report that rules out the posibility that "Faul" and Michael are brothers, that would change things. When do you think you can show us the report?
Today Michael and Ringo are I think the only ones left that hold the keys to the truth. True or False?False. This would be such a huge conspiracy that there would have to be many more people involved that are or might be still alive. The people who performed plastic surgery on "Faul", people who did the paperworks, Billy Shears's old friends and relatives, family and friends of the real Paul (if one of your friends or relatives would be replaced by someone else, I suppose you'd notice it, right?), Billy's trainers, Jane Asher, George Martin...
If there is anything else that you might be inclined to believe please state it.You haven't even really started giving us any evidence yet, have you? Show us what you've got (besides the ear lobe thing, we've seen it and we're not buying it) and we'll let you know what we think of it.
Ears and its style and shape is definitely some means of a way to identify someone, and if this is not so, Ok here is a test. Go to one of your friends, and take a pic shot of your friends ear and have your friend take a pic shot of your ear. Develop it and then compare. Would they be the same or not?There were almost fifty years between the two pictures of the ear that you posted. Not just one year. And different camera angles and different lightning can make a big difference.
Ok
For all of you if you can just simply it, just what it will take for you to believe about the Real Paul being allegedly replaced or be convinced that he might be dead. Scientifically I believe Once cremated DNA is gone forever.
Example: DNA from Faul vs DNA from his brother Michael, or DNA from Faul vs DNA from the Real Paul (provided one can find his body somehow). I think the best bet is Michael direct closest decendent, and would this be sufficient for many of you?
.
So now explain and prove how this person can be with undisputable evidence if any that the one you see today is the Real Paul that some of you say he is.
If any of you want to see all the comparisons and reading materials etc., and maybe perhaps some of you not know about it, so here is a link

First of all,I don't believe that Paul's dead.
I think it's really funny how people look for clues to have proof that Paul is really dead xD
I started to play along today because I was bored and paid more attention to some of the pictures and videos of Paul.
Here's a clue I found (sorry if its already been posted) :
In the "Hello Goodbye" music video..it looks like Paul's bass is covered in blood..

Joost, I think you just may be my favorite person on this thread.
Oh oh, do I sense something here? hehehehehehehehehehe
I do believe my case concerning the issue on the death of John Lennon is quite strong as Joost is looking into the matter.Sorry, but that's yet another wrong assumption. We're having a discussion here so I think it's only fair that I at least try to see your point. That however, unfortionately, doesn't automatically mean that I think you have a strong case.
From 66 up to around I think 71 or 73 somewhere around there the public appearances were limited and then in the 70's that is when the Paul we see today began the journey to be more public.But Paul never quite took a break from writing songs and recording music in the studio during those years. So I guess he got the singing and songwriting down right away?
Some other things does not make sense either, like why would he go to Africa on some stupid safari trip? He never was interested in that before. :-XThousands of people go to Africa for "stupid safari trips". Why does that make no sense? We're on an incredibly interesting planet here and you never know how much time you've got to check it out. It would make no sense to me if you have the chance to see something of the world and you DON'T do it.
Plus Pauls public appearances between 66 and 73 were not limited at all.
Very true! Actually he probably went more in public then the other three. He was the bachelor of the group at that time and did a lot of clubbing. He also was very active in the London art & underground scene and is probably the most photographed Beatle in 1966-1968. :)
This is so unreal gang, the guy on the left is the very same sap on the right, and fingerprints match and yet you all still deny.
youre contradicting. ears change or they do not change. you have not responded to an earlier post on pauls ears. how can you tell that the skull of the two men pictured is the same? mjs nose changed because of surgery. i guess this man was identified by his fingerprints not by the shape of his skull or shape of his ears. how this case of aging can be related to pauls or whoevers is not clear to me. pretty individual if you ask me.
As we see others age or as we see ourselves age, we often notice that ears appear to get longer in middle and old age. But do they really?
The scientific validity of this common observation has been challenged from time to time by those who maintain that ears don't really grow longer (or larger) with age - they only look as if they do - that it's all just an illusion.
They point out that since the body shrinks somewhat with age, the ears may appear to have grown longer (and larger) while actually staying the same size. So what does science say? In fact, our ears do grow longer with age. Indeed, they grow throughout our lives.
In 1990, Drs L Pelz and B Stein from Medical Branch of the University of Rostock in Germany measured the ears of 1,271 children and adolescents. They report in Padiatrie und Grenzgebiete that ear length increases "steadily and annually", but ear width remains the same.
Dr James Heathcote, a general practitioner from Kent in the UK, along with four colleagues, studied 206 patients with the mean age of 53. Dr Heathcote concluded in the 23 December 1995 British Medical Journal, that "as we get older our ears get bigger (on average by 0.22mm a year)".
The next year, in the 2 March British Medical Journal, Dr Yashhiro Asai, a physician at the Futanazu Clinic in Misaki, Japan, along with three colleagues, agreed with Heathcote. Their study of 400 consecutive patients aged 20 and older concludes "that ear length correlates significantly with age, as Heathcote showed, in Japanese people".
In 1999, Dr VF Ferrario and four colleagues from the Functional Anatomy Research Centre at the University of Milan in Italy, writing in the Journal of Craniofacial Genetic Developmental Biology, present evidence that not only do ears get longer with age, but it happens to both women and men. Men’s ears start out longer than women's and they stay that way.
Why ears grow longer with age? Gravity over time forces every body appendage to sag. The bane of human aging: If it can sag, it will sag! Ears included.

;)
No, when Paul really passes away, no one will believe it!
There is a pretty big clue proving that it's just a joke...
On the Abbey Road album cover, there is a Volkswagen Beatle on the left side of the road. If you look closely you'll see the license plate reads "28 IF". Paul was 28 at that time. The "IF" implies that if he weren't dead, he would be 28. Much later, after the seperation of the Beatles, Paul's album "Paul is Live" features the same famous Abbey Road scene. If you read the license plate on the Volkswagen Beatles this time, it says "51 IS". Paul was 51 at the release of the album. The license plate and the title implies that Paul is saying he is not dead, but it was a stupid joke.

Read the whole thread and you should get a laugh!!Quote
;D Beatles fans are everywhere I guess!
No sooner did that suggestion come out of his mouth did one of his co-hosts say "Paul is Dead rumors?
It's the very last comment that I agree with the most!
Here's a question for everyone - has a conspiracy theory ever been proved to be correct? I can't think of one. Maybe Bay of Pigs?
I also heard a guy give a lecture on it once and he said toward the end of 'Gently Weeps' that George is singing 'Paul Paul'.
There was also the deal with their name being a phone number. The first three letters like they're spelled out on Magical Mystery Tour are 834, which is also the time on the board in the MMT booklet behind John the mustachioed ticket man. Supposedly someone called the number and there was a message saying "You're getting closer".
I haven't gone through the whole thread but, at the risk of possibly repeating a post I think one of the most important clues for a hoax is the banquet scene in the MMT booklet. If you don't know about it try this. Get some freinds (at least one) and open the booklet to the baquet scene. Have someone hold the open page against the wall with the mans beret at the top. Eveyone else stand back 10-15 feet and see what you get. Note that the scene was not in the movie so it was deliberatly put there with someones approval. Fun stuff but I say a hoax!
You can enjoy this more if you get a few beers going and listen to the album while doing this!
And the hoax goes on...

Holy cranberry sauce, Batman!
Btw, I still think Batman and Robin look ridiculous.
What about Batgirl?
Hi everyone,
I've been a fan of this board for a while now, but this is my first post. Sorry if this question has been raised before, but I haven't seen it. It's just something I've always been confused about.
As I understand it, the whole "Paul is Dead" rumor started on a college campus in late 1969, then really took off when a Detroit disc jockey talked about it on his show in October of that year, followed by a NYC disc jockey later that month.
Now, one of the most famous (and obvious) "clues" is John's line in Glass Onion, "Here's another clue for you all, the walrus was Paul." In at least one interview I've read, John said that he added that line in response to all the folks who were scouring the albums and songs for clues that Paul was dead and had been replaced by a double.
But the White Album came out in 1968, a full year before the rumor started and people started looking for clues. So what was John responding to?
Don't get me wrong. I don't for a second believe Paul is dead, and I don't mean to imply that the Beatles really were placing clues in their music. This is just something I've always been confused about, so I thought I'd ask the good folks on this board for help.
I just don't see the point of the elaborate cover-up, followed by equally elaborate clues to reveal the cover-up.
Thanks for the friendly welcomes. It's fun to actually post on this site after enjoying it as a lurker for so long.
I guess my previous post got me in a mood to think more about this whole rumor thing. (And I agree, it probably is all in the mind.) Has anyone who actually believes the rumor every addressed the following fairly basic questions?
What religion is that where a walrus is a symbol for the dead?
I don't suppose it's, "I was killed in a car crash." Or "Hi, my name's Willy"?
But seriously, I'm afraid I don't hear much that's intelligible. The best I can come up with is something like "Shakin' in the band" or *something* "in the band."
Do other folks hear something I'm missing? To be honest, I think a lot of the backward clues and aural clues in general are like Rorschach tests, where the brain is trying to create recognizable order or patterns from something indistinct. Like finding animals or faces in clouds. Having said that, I do agree that the "I was Willy Campbell" line in Gratitude is kind of creepy.
Hi Kevin,
Sorry, no harm intended. Looking back through this thread, it seemed like there were posts from people who actually believe the rumors, and I thought if I was ever going to get some input from a believer this would be the place. But if, as you say, they've all moved on (maybe they're busy tracking Paul to try to get DNA samples) then I guess I'll move on too.
This is a great forum though, so maybe I'll just try a different thread.
I guess I didn't explain anything at all.
Don't say I didn't warn you.
It's the same with the hand above his hand. A so called symbol for the death. I don't know. Never heard of it.
Ringo is dead!
...A cover-up?

Ringo dead?
Hmm, so that's why 'Yellow Submarine' played backwards says ' psst...I'm not the real drummer' at 1:34
;D
HelloGoodbye,
Sorry, I've listened to that snippet from Sgt Pepper that you posted so many times now it's a good thing my wife isn't here or she'd think I'm nuts. (Maybe she already does.) But I still got nothing. The only thing that I can make out is, "In the band, in the band," or something like that. Break it to me, what am I missing?
looks like an add for Nike :D
"I don't want to scare anyone..."
I gotta be honest, I'm not getting it. Even listening to it after reading what Paul's supposed to be saying, I still don't hear it. Still sounds like "Shaking (or something) in the band, in the band." Maybe it's me. I'm usually fine at hearing all the other aural clues, but this one's beyond me.
But I think I may have found a clue that I haven't seen folks mention before. In the promo music video for Strawberry Fields Forever, the one where the Beatles are playing around near a broken piano and a tree, check out about 1:20 into it. This is when John is singing, "No one, I think, is in my tree." But just at that moment, someone *is* in the tree...Paul! Just a coincidence? I think not! Is this John's way of saying that the person in the tree isn't real? In other words, Paul is dead!
I would have embedded the video in my post, but I don't seem to be smart enough to do that. (I'm not particularly bright.)
Well, here's another clue for you all...
This is my favorite clue from magical mystery tour!
I thought I'd heard all the clues til that one. That's a beauty
Well, here's another clue for you all...Hmmm, new to me too!

That's American author Stephen Crane whose right hand appears over Paul's head. Noted for his Civil War novel The Red Badge Of Courage, he also wrote the short story The Open Boat...

...a story about his experience of surviving a shipwreck off the coast of Florida in 1897 while traveling to Cuba to work as a newspaper correspondent. The ship he was on, the SS Commodore, sank after hitting a sandbar. He and three other men were forced to navigate their way to shore in a small boat. One of the men, an oiler named Billie Higgins, drowned after the boat overturned.
Four men started the journey, but only three finished.
Well, here's another clue for you all...
Revolution 9 Backmask (backwards) by The Beatles ([url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PG0wksBzKSc#[/url])
I wish I had this video when I was in college. The only way we could play Revolution 9 backwards was to disconnect the drive belt on a turntable and spin the record in reverse with our fingers, as close as possible to 33 1/3 RPM. It was hard to do for extended periods of time.
But here we have Revolution 9 at the correct speed in reverse along with a transcription.
If Paul isn't dead then I'm sure there were times when he looked at this idiot and wished he were!

You shouldn't have to present proof, just tell him that you can see he's given this a lot of thought then believe what you and I both know is true.
How do you know what you know is true is really true?
I just spent 10 minutes searching for stuff and got what I need. Doesn't matter, he wont believe me anyways.

Hello: Now I'm asking myself: "Will Paul come back as Superman?"
The OPD badge on Pauls Pepper uniform stands for Officially Pronounced Dead ???
why would the person replacing Paul not want his own credit all these years?
Also heard in the fade out are these lines from King Lear:
Oswald
Slave, thou hast slain me: villain, take my purse:
If ever thou wilt thrive, bury my body;
And give the letters thou find’st about me
To Edmund Earl of Gloucester, seek him out
Among the British party: O, untimely death.
(Oswald dies)
Edgar
I know thee well: a serviceable villain;
As duteous to the vices of thy mistress
As badness would desire.
Gloucester
What, is he dead?
Edgar
Sit you down father, rest you.
It looks like William Shakespeare was in on this too! ;D
I thought you knew that Baz ha2ha

Aleister Crowley (born Edward Alexander Crowley; 12 October 1875 – 1 December 1947) was an English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, painter, novelist, and mountaineer. He founded the religion of Thelema, identifying himself as the prophet entrusted with guiding humanity into the Æon of Horus in the early 20th century. A prolific writer, he published widely over the course of his life.
Crowley believed in the objective existence of magic, which he chose to spell "Magick", an older archaic spelling of the word. In his book Magick in Theory and Practice, Crowley defined Magick as "the Science and Art of causing change to occur in conformity with Will." He describes how to communicate on a subliminal level by speaking backwards in order to gain power over others...

Brilliant ;D
why oh why do I keep clicking on this thread?
why oh why do I keep clicking on this thread? You know those old commercials, "this is your brain...this is your brain on drugs"? That pops into my head when I see what people believe and try to convince others of regarding Paul's alleged death...

Oh I love it. The more obscure and tenuous the better ;D
The whole Paul-is-dead debate reminds me of the diehards who believe the Titanic and Olympic were in fact switched and it was the Olympic that sank, for reasons of insurance purposes. roll:)
I never got the point of that one. Weren’t they almost identical ships owned by the same line? So it’s only a matter of a name if one went down or the other?

^^^^^^
There was a William Campbell on the Titanic, but he was a second-class passenger and died in the sinking. His body was never recovered -- fodder for more conspiracy theories, LOL.
I have read that John's father served as a steward on the Queen Mary.
It looks like William Shakespeare was in on this too! ;D
Here's an early Halloween present for all you PID aficionados. WKBW radio in Buffalo aired "Paul McCartney is Alive and Well...Maybe" on Halloween night 1969. That was a bit before my time of listening to that great station after dark but I came across this on a blog I like to read. Scroll down on this page to the first player:
Paul McCartney is Alive and Well...Maybe? ([url]http://blog.buffalostories.com/the-scary-sounds-of-halloween-on-wkbw-5-hours-worth-of-k-big-talent-on-display/[/url])
Thanks Kelley for posting this! Looking forward to listening to it. I'm a huge Halloween lover and also have become quite fascinated with the PID theory. I've read and watched many crazy things about it and I think it's still fun and interesting even though I don't believe it. I made a long Instagram post on it once. I'll have to share that here eventually.

Well, here's another clue for you all...
I must have seen the Magical Mystery Tour movie at least a hundred times but I missed this clue.
Remember when Paul was talking to the actress sitting next to him on the bus and was interrupted by Little George, the photographer, who wanted to take some pictures of the actress?
([url]https://i.postimg.cc/7hP388rR/Photographer.jpg[/url])
The dialogue went like this:
Paul: You know when I saw your first film, I really thought you had something. Wasn’t it “Blue Lady”? “LADY IN BLUE,” Something like that?
The actress: How old are you?
Paul: Myself, I was thirty but I look a little younger due to...
William Wallace Shepherd was born on 9 September 1937 and was 30 years old in 1967...

1:52
Paul, I mean William Shepherd, admitted he was 30 years old in Magical Mystery Tour.

Well if you really want to know, with all these clues, John, Ringo and George just put it round that Paul died in a car crash. In reality Paul died this way...

He makes an argument that Sir Paul McCartney is still alive. But he's not wearing a hoodie so this must be Faux Fil and therefore his argument is false. :)
Here's the real Fil...
