English singer, songwriter and musician Paul McCartney in a studio to record ‘The Family Way’, November 1966. Composed for the film of the same name, ‘The Family Way’ is considered by many to be the first Beatles solo album. A photoshoot for The Sunday Times. 

While waiting to shoot a scene for A Hard Day’s Night, Paul McCartney dangles from a rope high above everyone’s head while director Dick Lester is wandering about, below, calling for Paul, who has gone missing. I may have to write a 30 second fanfic on this one, if I get the chance. 

Paul always was a bit of a daredevil. Smashed his face when he was a kid while trying to stand on his bicycle. Was photographed dangling from a high diving board while there was no water in the pool. Also: Standing on the narrow edge of a boat in deep water; Trying to mow your ass down in a go cart; Jumping off a moving bike, and so forth. And of course, driving his car fast enough to get airborne.

Or, scurrying up a tank like the nimble little minx, he was…

Once again climbing up a rope (or chain) while waiting to film “Let it Be/Get Back”. Hey, hey, he’s a monkey!

PS: The pic of him on the diving board? Must have been the same day as this:

Here's a list of all the artists the Beatles played during the Get Back sessions. George really brought his emotional support bf with him to work
