I can't find that picture from Help! where McCartney's diaper is apparent. Can anyone post it?

Why must you all insist on ruining my image of him? Poor baby! If this is true, it was terribly embarassing for him! My God, I just wanna give him a huge hug!

Faul ruined Paul's good image with that Wings crap.
We're working to restore McCartney's rightful place in the rock pantheon.

I like Wings.
And isn't the correct term, "adult disposable underwear"?

Here's the link. I'm looking for some more pictures, but I don't have the film at the moment (seen it a few times, though): www.anycities.com/user/uberkinder/pauldiaper.htmlNotice how you can see a little "pantyline" coming from that bulge in the back, and the front of his pants look matted and smooth.

OK, I'm not laughing at you guys, so don't take it the wrong way. That photo has so plainly been tampered with! You can go into all the reasons why I'm wrong, but puh-leeease...I've never seen anything so silly. I've watched Help! so many times I've actually lost count. Paul was chunky. So what? No need to embarass him.

Which is it -- is the photo "tampered," or is Paul "chunky"? It can't be both.
How many chunky people put on weight in a diaper-shaped pad of fat on their ass and hips? That would be a much more serious illness than IBS; almost something for a carnival sideshow.

I'm offering both the tampering and chunkiness as possible explanations. Take your pick.
I asked a friend of mine (who was over at the time I was looking at the photo) what she thought was wrong with him. She said something to the effect of, "The picture looks grainy and I think someone messed with the graphic". I then suggested he might be wearing a diaper and she almost fell over in laughter.

Name: David Wilmont, M.D. Date1/13/01 7:18:21 AM Email: painmanagement@doctor.com Subject: McCARTNEY'S DISEASE ...AND DEATH
The LIVING Paul McCartney suffered from severe symptoms of Irritable Bowell Syndrome. This causes cramping so intense as to require narcotic analgesics (codeine, oxycodone, morphine) to relieve intractable pain in the patient. McCartney's malady was so bad that occasionally, he could not eat. Another result of IBS is Explosive Diarrhea. Young McCartney changed underware constantly he would soil them so often. Not so with Mr. Campbell. Severe IBS sufferers are uniformly habituated to opioids to help control their condition. McCartney WAS. Today's "McCartney" is not. James Paul McCartney has truly passed on. There is no cure for IBS. He IS dead.

Sun King, you need to provide some context for that email or usenet post or whatever.

i think that picture was taken straight from the movie. and the reason he was chubby is from his medication for his IBS

He just had a big ass, now quit complaining that it's a diaper and realize that British underwear (which looks a lot like briefs) CLEARLY SHOWS marks when worn under jeans.

And I really don't think the director would have let Paul wear such an obviously apparent diaper in a shot. He would have made Paul take it off. So I believe there are only two possible reasons for the, uh, cushyness, of his behind:
1. He's just got a large behind 2. The shot's been tampered with

well if he took the diaper off, he may have crapped his pants. and that wouldnt have been good. now how many people are going to keep claiming the pic was tampered with? it was taken straight from the movie.

I like Wings. And isn't the correct term, "adult disposable underwear"? I like Wings too. There were no disposable diapers (for kids) or disposable incontinence pads for adults in 1965. The first disposables (developped by Proctor & Gamble) came around only by the end of the 60's. Disposable briefs for adults came even later, around 1974 or so. So if there would be any diaper sticking to Paul's butt in the Help! movie (which is of course not the case!) it would have been a reusable cloth diaper.

Disposable briefs for adults came even later, around 1974 or so.... That's correct. That was mentioned on our old board, before we moved to this (SNAZZY!!) new one. Thanks for the reminder.

sorry but i never bought the IBS thing. paul being sick, yes, possibly with kidney trouble, but NOT irritable bowel syndrome.
anyway why wear a diaper like that on the beach when you can just excuse yourself and then "take a massive" in the ocean? even the worst case of "intestinal distress" allows one to do work for 20 minutes or so between attacks.

i read or heard somewhere that they went to the bahamas to shoot this scene, and it was freezing cold, so maybe it's just another pair of pants...

If only there was a way to get in touch with Dick Lester to confirm this "adult diaper" business.

I am hoping against hope Paul just secretly retired for medical reasons , not wanting to go public with this . such a disease is socially debilitating and would interfere with stage performances and even interviews and personal appearances . But I know this is just wishful thinking.
