Faul's height (from "A Day in the Life" video)

[innspector]

Here is a contribution for the legal proof about the differences bewteen the 66 Paul and the 67- Faul:

In the "A Day in the Life" video, in the moment where John says "a crowd of people stood and stared", there are some quick shots of a bunch. When you pause it, here is what you see (sorry, you have to copy the link and paste it in your browser):

From left to right: an unknown person, Patty, George, and Faul (just look how tall that guy is!!!!)

Here's anothe shot that appears within a second:

Here's Faul at the left, Patty and George to the right.
Again, how tall this guy really is!! In this photo you can see John on the extreme right.

I don't have a video capture card so I had to take two shots at my TV with the digital camera. If anyone can post better snapshots will do a contribution to the case.

It's on the Anthology 6 VHS, don't know in which DVD is it in the digital version.

There's a LOT of weird stuff on that video! I wish I had the space to post it, you really need to see it start to finish. Faul strutting around with the conductor's wand looking generally creepy, and the strange crowd of guests at the recording session dressed up in costume for example. At the end there are a few frames of an ambulance and firemen walking along side it seemingly looking at something beyond the camera's range.

he looks like a string bean!!

When you see this photos and compare them to others like St. Pepper, Abbey Road, etc. it's obvious that they have been doctored to make Faul less tall, because he is a string bean, a secuoya tree, he's so tall that he trips on Monday and falls on Sunday!!! ;D

Thank you for being so kind in posting them

;D ::)Eggman, Watusi & Innspector - in the Sgt. Pepper photo, Bill's knees are splayed. You can JUST make out that he's doing it. Whomever took this photo, should've cut it off higher up !!! If he's doing it in this photo, who knows how many other photos he's done the same thing in !!! By playing his knees out, he's bringing his height WAY down. You're very right, he is a stringbean. In one photo that I posted under pix of Faul's height difference, you can get an idea of how tall he is. Iit's the one of him, Jane & Ruth with Bill in a bathing suit. He looks much taller than Jane. Very tall & thin...
Paul, on the other hand, had a bit of a weight problem. Sometimes he was very thin & frail looking. Other times, he looked rather robust. I'd have to guess that this weight fluctuation was caused by his IBS & the meds he had to take to try to control it...No matter how chubby he looked, he always was a small guy. His thighs might get a little chubby, but his height wasn't effected !!! The fact that gaining a few pounds would go to his legs PROVES that he was a small man. I'm a small person. When I gain weight it goes directly to my legs 1st. Bill is tall enough that he can carry a few extra punds easily. In fact, in the photos that we have where Bill looks chubby, it's his stomach that seems to have expanded somewhat. I can guarantee you that his weight goes to tummy 1st, legs last. This will always give him the look of someone who is very tall, since his legs stay relatively thin !!!
This is all just IMHO of course. I'll go & scout out some photos to see if I have any proof to back it up ;D

Love to all...

Chris ;D
