Do you think Paul is dead and was replaced by a look alike?

I myself believe Paul McCartney was never replaced and is alive and well. What do you think?
Here's some info on the hoax.
The most common tale is that on Wednesday, 9 November 1966 at 5 am, McCartney, while working on the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album, stormed out of a recording session after an argument with the other Beatles and rode off in his Aston Martin which he subsequently crashed into a lamp post, and died.[5]
The story was pieced together from the lyrics of multiple Beatles songs. The most common narrative includes the following pieces of evidence:
  1. "He didn't notice that the lights had changed" ("A Day in the Life").
  2. He then crashed into a lamp-post (a car crash sound is heard in "Revolution 9" and "A Day in the Life").
  3. He was pronounced dead on a "Wednesday morning at 5 o'clock as the day begins" ("She's Leaving Home")
  4. Nobody found this out because the news was withheld: "Wednesday morning papers didn't come" ("Lady Madonna").
  5. A funeral procession was held days later, as was supposedly implied on the Abbey Road album cover by the Beatles' clothing. (John Lennon dressed all in white, like a clergyman. Ringo Starr wore a black suit, like an undertaker. Paul McCartney wore a suit without shoes, and walked out of step with the other Beatles. George Harrison's denim outfit could be said to resemble that of a gravedigger.
  6. Adding fuel to the legend is the ending of "Strawberry Fields Forever". Some believed John said "I buried Paul" in a slow deep voice over the final refrain. He later said the phrase is actually "cranberry sauce".
According to believers, McCartney was replaced with the winner of a McCartney look-alike contest. The name of this look-alike has been recorded as William Shears Campbell, Billy Shears (the name of the fictitious leader of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band), William Sheppard (based on the alleged inspiration for the song "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill"), or some combination of the names.[9]

There is no evidence of any crash in which McCartney was involved, although during the first week of January 1967, McCartney's custom-made Mini Cooper was wrecked by a friend on the M1 Motorway outside London. McCartney was involved in a moped crash on December 26, 1965, which resulted in a chipped tooth and the scar on his lip that can be seen on promotional videos for the "Paperback Writer"/"Rain" single, made shortly after the crash, in May 1966.[9] According to McCartney, his desire to hide the scar on his lip was the impetus to grow a moustache.
McCartney has said about the rumor: "Anyway all of the things that have been, that have made these rumors, to my mind have very ordinary, logical explanations. To the people’s minds who prefer to think of them as rumors, then I am not going to interfere, I am not going to spoil that fantasy. You can think of it like that if you like. However, if the end result, the conclusion you reach is that I am dead, then you are wrong, because I am very much alive, I am alive and living in Scotland.”[10]

Hey...

I'm a great fan of the Beatles!

I know that Paul McCartney is not dead or replaced!!! :)

The Beatles, after all, is still the number 1 best seller of their Albums all over the World (As some sources say!)

Still, Paul McCartney (Nickname: CuteyBoy) and Ringo Star (Nickname: StarTles) is alive and well...

Make way for the Beatles! :)

P.S. (haha, number 1 beatles fan! :) )
Nostalgia. Last log-in was 2009. Lots have changed ever since.

Why? Do you know him in real life? I doubt it. That's a bold statement based on stories from the media.
Of course he is not dead, the sea kittens taking over the world and then invading the secret base on Mars is probably more likely.

Ever heard about DNA?

Unless they hired his twin brother.
Which doesn't exist, he has a brother (Mike McCartney), but he's a performer in his own right, plus he and his brother have been seen together, so yeah :\

Ayaiyai! Doesn't anybody read the first post of this thread. I said in clear english I believe Paul didn't die and was never replaced! I made this thread to see how many people believe in it who are members of this forum. Luckily, none of you (so far believe the hoax! That's a good thing!

The Beatles just followed the joke for a while, then dropped it. Everything else made by conspiracy theorists, including album cover messages and stupid song interpretations, is incredible crap.

No authority has ever bothered to take fingerprints or DNA tests because it's such obvious nonsense. The sad thing is that there are people who actually believe he's dead. XD

I just realized how mature this forum is. 4 neg-reps for saying a hate-comment to a celebrity? How lovely.
"And Paul McCartney hates you ****", that has got to be the best thing anyones ever said to me! :D

I'll be blunt here; if you want to rant to me about who and how I hate, come drop me a PM, instead of hiding under a little red icon swearing at me.
