Great points Jae. Number 5 is incorrect, though. James Paul was still the tallest of the band members or at least the same height as George and John. It's just that Faul towered over them. He was at least 2 inches taller than James Paul was.

Yes, I'm glad you noticed the angle. Almost all of the promotional films with frontal shots were filmed with slight slants so that Faul could stand on the lower end of the slant and appear shorter, or with the other Beatles standing slightly in front of him. He also wore socks or flats in several of them. And "Let It Be" is filmed from such uncomfortable angles that you barely see a single frontal shot of them standing side by side.

I think that in October 1966 they were crazy looking for a look-alike or making the first round of plastic surgery in Faul's face. Very strange as always!!!

The "smaller" of the Band was "always" Ringo. ;D October 1966: [glow=red,2,300]"THE BEATLES' ALL CHRONOLOGIES BLACK HOLE"[/glow]

Spanky, my guess by looking at them is that John, Paul and George were all about 5'10". Since most people exaggerate their height by at least a half inch , I would say this could be accurate. In Sun King's comparison, they are all the same height on the Help cover, maybe with James Paul being slightly shorter that George and John. But if you notice the picture, Paul's legs are about two feet apart making him shorter, while the other two's legs are together. It is my best estimate by looking at MANY photos of the early Beatles(as many as I could find) and videos too, that John and George were literally the exact same height and Paul was about a half inch to three quarters of an inch taller than both of them. I am gonna guess that Faul is about 6'1".

I posted a picture of the Beatles at Candlestick Park and it shows that Paul and George are the same height. Here it is again.

At that time Faul was not ready in many aspects to do a tour: as bassman, as singer, etc....

Yes, and you can hear Faul's bass is painfully out of tune on the roof-top. One string is correct, two are sharp and one is flat. I doubt Paul would give his last performance with his bass out of tune. I doubt Faul even new how to tune a bass (if he's really playing it; his fingers appear completely out of sync in certain parts.)
Perhaps this represented how Faul was happy being there (one in-tune), George wanted to leave the band (one flat), and John and Ringo would have stayed if real Paul was still there (two sharp). Maybe I'm wrong about their specific feelings at the time.

this thread was argued against by one 'b.j.rowan' on his website here. Hmm. This guy writes quite amusing prose, so I'm surprised he pretends to miss the whole point of UK's site - the eye distance/chin & ear position comparison. Surely he couldn't be stupid enough to think posting two pictures of John Lennon which show er... he got older and lost some weight .. in any way tackles UK's argument that Paul's face changed in *impossible* ways. How could you read the site and miss the whole point of it? Seriousy - I would be delighted if somebody dubunked the whole thing and Faul was proved to be the real James Paul. So why are all "refutations" of UK's work and 60IF so half-arsed?
