Paul McCartney ‘replaced by body double after death’ claims bizarre conspiracy.
LEGENDARY Beatles singer Paul McCartney was apparently “replaced by a body double” after a fatal crash in 1966, according to a long-running conspiracy theory.

McCartney is best known as the charming frontman of rock and roll supergroup The Beatles.
But wacky conspiracy theorists maintain the legendary Beatle died in a car crash during the golden age of Beatlemania, only to be replaced by a dead ringer.
And fans now believe they know the true identity of McCartney’s lookalike imposter, 52 years after his supposed death.
According to conspirators, the singer's replacement was a sweet-sounding Louisiana local called Michael Campbell Shears – better known as Billy Shears.
The legend goes that in 1965 (one year before McCartney is said to have died) young Shears entered a Beatles lookalike competition organised by the band’s manager Brian Epstein, in the unlikely event one of the legendary quartet died.
So when news broke of Paul’s supposedly fatal crash, the wacky conspiracy suggests Brian bribed police and journalists to turn a blind eye.
He then introduced Shears to John Lennon, Ringo Starr and George Harrison as a replacement for their sharp-witted frontman.
From there, Shears picked up a Scouse accent and assumed the life of one of the biggest rock stars on the planet.

Theorists now believe they have picked up on minute differences between pre-crash Paul (before 1966) and post-crash Paul (Billy, nicknamed “Faul” by theorists) which prove the star has been dead for over half a century.
In a bizarre video, YouTube conspirator MrSandpit123 goes on to point out changes in Paul’s height, posture, facial structure and even the way he holds his famous Hofner bass guitar in an attempt to expose Shears as an imposter.
Speaking of the footage, the theorist concludes: “I have seen enough to fully convince me that Paul was replaced.”
Further, theorists claim the other members of the Beatles left clues regarding their bandmate’s tragic death, including John’s confession “I buried Paul” in their hit song Strawberry Fields Forever.

Unsurprisingly, McCartney has repeatedly quashed the bizarre rumours of his own death.
Speaking to BBC back in 1969, Paul said: “Rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated.
"However, if I was dead, I'm sure I'd be the last to know."
Referencing the theory earlier this year during Carpool Karaoke with James Corden, 76-year-old Sir Paul admitted: “We just kind of let it go.”
