JOHN LENNON
Before He Died He Was Actually Legally Blind
No matter how self-aware Lennon was, he wouldn’t be able to take a step without glasses during the last couple of years of his life. During the last decade of his life, Lennon couldn’t see a finger in front of his eyes. In the 1970s, a doctor even declared Lennon to be legally blind.
5. He Claimed to Have Seen a UFO in the ’70s
Although mainly known as a spiritualist, John was also a huge UFO nerd. So much so that even his poor eyesight couldn’t prevent him from watching the skies constantly. As luck would have it, in 1974, Lennon claimed to have seen a UFO from the balcony of his then girlfriend’s apartment.
6. Lennon Was a Really Terrible Driver
John was never a big fan of cars. He didn’t care about driving so much that he didn’t even bother taking a driving test well into his 20s. He managed to pass the test when he was 25-years old. In 1969, he crashed his all-white Mini Coupe on a trip to Scotland. This kept him out of the driver’s seat for good.

PAUL MCCARTNEY
John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote 295 songs together.
Paul McCartney was the only Beatle wearing a beard during the recording and filming of the ‘Let It Be’ album and movie. Ironically, he was the only Beatle without a beard on the cover of ‘Abbey Road’, which was recorded the same year as ‘Let It Be’.
Paul played to what’s believed to be the largest paid audience in recorded history when in 1989, he played a solo concert to a crowd of 350,000-plus in Brazil.

RINGO STARR
He was the first Beatle to leave the group. Frustrated during the sessions for The Beatles (theWhite Album) sessions in August of 1968, Ringo left the group and went for a holiday in Sardinia. It was there that he wrote his biggest hit for the Beatles “Octopus’ Garden.” When he returned, his drums were coated with flowers (they were put there by George)
n 1964, when the Beatles first came to America, Ringo was actually the most popular Beatle. At least he received the most fan mail of the four.
He underwent several operations for his ill health. The other Beatles never knew about his health history until all four were swimming together one day and the others saw all the operation scars on Ringo’s stomach.
