Despite being a pacifist, Lennon used his body guard often to settle disputes (physically).

The Beatles were so poor in their early days, to save on their hydro bill they would shave using urinal water.

The Beatles are popular with German teenagers because the name sounds like the German word for penis (Piedel)

Conspiracy Theory #1

Starting with Paul is dead and replaced is too easy so instead how about:

Everyone is dead and replaced except Paul.

This theory actually has a clear origin, Chris Fishel (you can read the whole thing in his two articles here).

In this theory Ringo is the first to die. If you look at the With the Beatles cover, Ringo is the only one not in line. So obviously he's dead. This is later reinforced in the cover of the Nowhere Man EP where Ringo is on a stone monument, or if you will his tombstone.

George is the next to die in this theory, also known through album covers. For A Hard Days Night, George has a cigarette in his mouth. Apparently those are also called "a nail in the coffin" so. He's dead. Like Ringo, he has another album cover to prove his death, but George's are right in a row. For the EP Long Tall Sally, George's coat is different from the other three (why is Ringo's not then Chris?? Why??).

John is the next to die as seen in the cover for Help! As you can see, the Beatles are shaped like the letters N U J V or, New Unknown John Vocalist.

Please note the J is backwards, and that is not a V.

There's a lot of finer details about how lyrics also prove their deaths, but I'd rather waste my time explaining my favorite part, Ringo's replacement. If you're familiar with the whole "Paul is dead" conspiracy then you probably know about his replacement, Billy Shears. Well wrong! Billy Shears is Ringo's replacement, which Ringo admits in his song "I'm the greatest" where he literally sings, "My name is Billy Shears/ it has been for many years.

I personally think this is dumb. But. Have fun tumblr.

For October I have decided to post Beatles conspiracy theories because they're

~~spooky~~

I dunno how many there actually are, so like it might be a queue for every Friday thing. Idk. We'll see.

#future plans #ramblings to be ignored

[beatles-101]

the beatles? you mean the boy band?

[beatles-101]

Idk how to reply on mobile from the beatles account and not my main but to answer this from @geriatricfool , Paul said it once in an interview about Nowhere Boy, because he was (jokingly) upset the actor playing him was shorter than the actor playing John. I don't think he's said it anywhere else that I know though.

Paul wore special shoes so he could be the tallest Beatle. He, George, and Lennon were all the same height.

[beatles-101]

It's not confirmed, but it's my personal theory. Paul, George, and John were all in the 5'10-5'11 range and the same height, but Paul claimed he was the tallest despite that so obviously he wore special shoes.

(Ringo's 5'6 if you're curious)

Paul wore special shoes so he could be the tallest Beatle. He, George, and Lennon were all the same height.

#I remembered Lennon's name this time #I do play fact roulette but I will answer if asked

[beatles-101]

If the queue ends it's because I never went added more post to the queue after these and am currently so tired I can't remember Lennon's first name.
