    I'd like to know too. I thought George was taller though.

    I read recently something that said Paul is in fact only 5'10" George is around 5'9 1/2" and Ringo 5'7"...apparently their heights were beefed up a little in the early days to keep the 3 out front all 5'11" etc. It looked better on paper I guess.
    Most people shrink as they age. Specifically their backbone compresses. I was 5'9" when I graduated from high school in 1966. I am now 5'6".
