[pt8648]

Tutti qui che scrivano in inglese. Capite Italiano?

I've been to India many times and there's no place like it. Thanks for posting.

[weedxXAK47Xxweed]

@carrier3232 You have clearly not been to India it would be stupid to hand out food to every begger

[Sincopare]

Was it really healthy for the Beatles to have the entourage, video cameras, and their guitars, on a meditation trip? How about sight seeing in a ghetto? This was a bizarre turn.

[Silver77cyn]

4:28 Paul's face lol...

[9carva]

at 3:20 the narrator says ''to sing at the side of the Ganges is good way to meditate, suggest the Maharishi'', I think

[girlsinhats6]

oh goodness, Paulie's hair was a bit on the greasy side! Oh well he is still supa sexy :)

[kaythapa56]

Flower Child "enlightened" on P O T.

[carrier3232]

pretty much a bunch of elitists bull shit. while the masses are in squalor, these folks simply idle away their time and have pretenses of achieving "enlightenment". I wonder if any of these goof balls even handed one crust of bread to any hungry child or offered a cup of clean water to a pair of parched lips!

[onemeg]

2:40 the Beatles sing Jingle Bells, Merry Christmas!

[slimturnpike]

the music parts were overlaid later as a joke, right?

[trufflesmell]

Mia Farrow. I mean, she was hotter in Rosemary's Baby, but you know. Tidy

[Anurag5051]

OMG my city <3 it...

[wrichik]

0 people are ... WAIT ... WHAT ?

EVERYBODY LOVES THE BEATLES <3

[guruuDev]

The faux nose pick and wink is pretty suave.

[dubstep2684]

here we have the beach boys ladies and gentlemen

[punkvictim]

[omarengo]

TV7 IS ITALIAN TELEVISION; THIS IS THE ONLY SCOOP IN EXISTENCE SHOOTING BEATLES IN INDIA!!!

[SuzLa1]

Cynthia looks unhappy because it was when John was having an affair with Yoko.

[themaniacboy]

Paul poking his nose at 1:57

[jroxx11211]

TRANSLATION PLEASE!!!

[starestrellakal]

look at about 1:34 it's Donovan! :)

[starestrellakal]

thank you so much for sharing this <3

[noodleworks14]

I think Paul looked the sexiest after he came back from India. I just love tall and skinny guys for some reason... ;)

[Mardawar]

lol at Paul picking his nose. He does it all the time.

And yes, there's even a photo of him doing it in of the McCartney albums.

[iluvmusicalmuffins14]

John was hot without his glasses in india

[QcMarcAndre]

so freak

[Binca954]

I want to go to India it looks really pretty.! I would be happy to join in the childish songs.! and Paul was not picking his nose maybe he was itching near the run of his nose and it his finger looked like he was picking. who cares he had his smexy wink.!!!

[KUTVgroucho]

@Binca954 It wasn't a pick, it was a scratch. I heard that India smells "like death," especially in crowded areas like airports.

[seeyen]

@KUTVgroucho

you heard wrong!!!

[KUTVgroucho]

@seeyen Obviously, you aren't familiar with a reference to a Seinfeld episode.

[TheOppbitch]

@augustusdes most people don't understand that comment.

[CalamityCameron]

[twinoak170]

Why wasn't Frank Sinatra there with Mia Farrow?

[susieinthesky98]

I wish i could sing those childish songs with them.!

[verbaud]

This is what actually broke up the Beatles. They saw thru all the BS of City & Fame. Whats amazing is their next 3 albums before they just walked away to find themselves.

[Kpsivad]

they went there because the weed

[jammmon]

[Steglock9]

[thebeatlesrockit]

@Steglock9  Malnutririon.

[DrHogfan]

That maharishi must have been teaching them that washing their hair was a sin.

[Drewgreen245]

Was that really Donovan?

[gearsmate]

In the next episode of "High as fuck in India"...

[letslennon]

[Wallyscruggs]

Maharishi was a fake and in it for the money

[MegaRon007]

Our Legends in front of us..

[DLW194921]

In 1967 following Brian Epsteins death the Beatles met the Maharishi in Paris... their greek elctronics expert Alexis Mardas accused the maharishi of being a fraud sying he had met him in Greece traveling under a diferent name but the beatles hushed him up..in February 1968 John Lennon travelled to india to see the maharishi only to come back home a month earlier saying he had turned out to be a fake...

[DLW194921]

A Very nostalgic clip of the Beatles and the other successful stars Mia Farrow Donovan etc enjoying themselves in India seemingly unaware of what a priveliged position they had in society... section 2:16 of the clip shows in contrast Bombay and the poor underprivaliged people there, Oscar Wild once wrote.. To live is the rarest thing in the world.. Most people exist that is all.......

[itgirlx1]

i think i heard:

mararishi: fathom the infinity

one of the beatles (I think George): we don't even exist

?

[manuelvaldiviam]

No , K. Cobain se parece a Jhon

[pr00de]

John looks like Kurt Cobain here.

[zkaby]

Where is Produnce?

[Shancus32796]

Omg, why is everyone fighting like children on here?

Love the video anyway :)

[BoscoBurckhardt]

Olym that girl fooled everyone.

[OlymPigs2010]

.....little known but Sexy Sadie was really a CIA agent!

[GHOSTWRITERSQUILL1]

all the petty ,mindless, hostility in commentary fued? that's oxymoron of beatlemania

[RustyPipesable]

1:36 is that donovan?? someone tell me

[AllOurYesterdaze]

@RustyPipesable yep that's him.

[moxie96]

@RustyPipesable That certainly is Donovan!

[Megaultraawesome99]

its not a bad thing, but i wonder why the beatles went from a boy band to straight outa hippies?

[greatestxgift]

@Megaultraawesome99 Why do they let 12 year olds leave comments?

[Megaultraawesome99]

@greatestxgift lol.im not twelve just like your not smart.

[greatestxgift]

@Megaultraawesome99 It's actually - YOU'RE not smart - Both of your comments have exposed your glaring stupidity, kid.

[Megaultraawesome99]

@greatestxgift your a retarded cunt.it was a motherfucking *Question*. if you didnt see that motherfucking word,then your retarded my friend.maybe if you answered the damn question i wouldnt talk shit. so shut the fuck up and go suck some dick like you always do.

[greatestxgift]

@Megaultraawesome99 it's actually - YOU'RE a retarded cunt - You're not a fast learner eh? By mentioning The Beatles as a "boy band" clearly shows your ignorance. What exactly is a "straight outa" hippy?

[Megaultraawesome99]

@greatestxgift 1. I'm a dad of a boy named Alberto so im not a fucking kid. 2. i just got into the motherfucking beatles so lay the hell off. third what are they called? a man band? huh? sorry for irritating you but come on.answer my question and ill shut the fuck up :). oh and thanks for being homo and going on my profile......bitch

[greatestxgift]

@Megaultraawesome99 ...babies making babies

[DonStirFrye]

@Megaultraawesome99 I hope you aren't raising your son to be an ignorant piece of shit like you.

[Megaultraawesome99]

@DonStirFrye lol you dont know me,and you dont know who said what.just because you see 2 comments doesnt mean you know everything about what greatestxgift has said.he went on my account and called me a bitch,kept argueing with me JUST because he couldnt answer a question,and just kept commenting.and you dont know im a piece of shit....i wouldnt mess with you if you didnt mess with me........

[DonStirFrye]

@Megaultraawesome99 Have you realized that your original question makes you look like a silly 12 year old though? He was just pointing out the obvious that everyone else who is into The Beatles would think. You come off as completely ignorant and total trash by the comments you left.

[Megaultraawesome99]

@DonStirFrye thats exactly what he said....did you make a new account? im sorry....i just got into the beatles and its not like i made fun of them.if he wouldve answered instead of hating i wouldnt of kept replying..plus im ignorant trash??? you REALLY should get to know people before calling them total trash

[fonsecamiranda]

love the beatles :) started playinhg guitar beacause of them and now i just want to be like them :)

[llpowers]

jane asher!!

nice video. thanks for uploading! :D

[WachaDrop]

at 2:04 if you listen very closely you can hear Yoko singing.

[deweytrux]

@WachaDrop WRONG!

[WachaDrop]

@deweytrux I was kidding, dumb ass..

[deweytrux]

@WachaDrop Naw, you were more serious than a Yoko letter to Chapman's parole board.

[zkaby]

@WachaDrop hahaha yeah!

[juggalette4lyfefu]

Thats Mia Farro, At the time Frank Sinatras wife.

[PinkieIndie]

ANVEDIIII! Su Rai uno l'hanno fatto *___+

[StraightTwoDVD]

george referred to this as "the beatles in india sketch"...

like it was from the monty python show...lol

[myfatdonkey]

If you listen at the beginning the commentator says the famous Californian group the Beach Boys are in India to meditate with the Mahirishi _____. That commentator is dumb for being unprepared and making that mistake. Even though the beach boys rock! The Beatles are the best!!!!!!!! : )

[Deafbillieblackbell]

@myfatdonkey Actually, one of the Beach Boys was here too (Mike Love), thats why the commentator is also talking about them.

[rds1958]

They wrote much of the White Album songs in India and eventually Sexy Sadie which was about Maharishi and what a phony John thought he was ...

[Geritopia]

I love British birds with bad teeth.

[IDLERACER]

Great shot of Jenny Boyd (George's sister in law) at 1:02. She was the main reason Donovan (1:35) came along for the trip. He was a bit sweet on her at the time.

[etowmom]

@IDLERACER Jennifer Juniper!

[senorcardgage678]

i'm assuming this was after ringo went back home?

[garagebanman]

If I remember right, on Paul's "McCartney" album, didn't the album have  photo of Paul with his finger up his nose on it somewhere? Oh well such things to worry about.

[curt20]

up in the mountains getting stoned off there tits playing camp fire songs:D

[vmanbeatles]

@curt20 only Beatles could do that and not even have police think of that.. they did everything.

[Grafietstift]

Thanks so much for putting this up!

[Edhallick]

Pretty freaking insane this was 42 years ago. But then I think 42 years from now everything is going to look like it was filmed 2 seconds ago due to digital. Even 1000 years, even a million years from now if humans are still around it will look like two seconds ago as digital doesn`t degrade like film. Pretty crazy isn`t it? If digital cameras existed in George Washingtons time or even Jesus or Ramses it would look 2 seconds old.

[PsyKater]

And now think 42 years further ;)

[hofnerman1]

The Vid is great, sound sux but I cant help seeing or thinking of Jimmy Jones.

[beta123abc]

lol paul picks his nose. 1:58 would make a perfect picture.

[lago4]

maybe he was sneaking in some yayo to kill the boredom...

[crapple009]

Paul was always a nose-picker. Just watch old footage of him while deep in conversation and he'll be at it.

maybe his way of saying "Hey,I'm just a human-being like everyone else so get over it".

[PatTheBoone]

Or possibly he had some snot up there that just had to go....

[crapple009]

I remember reading a quote of Linda's circa 1979 where she said Paul's a normal husband- enjoys a pint, has a slight pot-belly and picks his nose.

I kid you not!

[crapple009]

@PatTheBoone LOL- You never know. Sometimes to get rid of unwanted attention or someone staring at me who shouldn't be , I'll purposely pick my nose and then match their and that usually does the trick.

[pizzaboy20906]

was that prudence at the start

[FlashBeforeMyEyes120]

paul was cute even when he picks his nose.

[Grafietstift]

Agreed :) Especially when he picks his nose haha!

[crapple009]

@FlashBeforeMyEyes120 LOL!! Even in interviews I've seen, he can't resist picking/ messing with his nose!

Here, he seems to be saying good- naturedly, "O.k., I'm busted- you caught me".

[DaDa2Phlux]

@crapple009 ROTF Keeping in mind how hotels they would stay at sold sections of the used linen to Beatle-maniacs anyone's guess how much a "crusty" of Sir Paul's would fetch at Christie's auction.

[vampyros1]

@crapple009 Are you for real? He's having fun and goofing around for the camera.  Jeez....

[crapple009]

@vampyros1 Can't a Beatle have fun and still get caught picking his nose at the same time? At least that's what it looks like to me.

But I guess you were there (hey, were the camera-man, weren't you), so you would definitely know.

Sheesh...

[vampyros1]

@crapple009 You imagined he was acting as if "O.k., I'm busted- you caught me", as though he was only "busted" because the camera caught him, and that he'd have otherwise been cool with picking his nose in front of a group of people.  It does shed light on your personal habits though ....... LOL

[crapple009]

@vampyros1 Roight. Whatever.

[itgirlx1]

@FlashBeforeMyEyes120 1:58 could do without seeing that!

[bram13]

buy the ''nothing but aging'' bootleg by ''vigotone''. There you will find subtitles.

[jenkinska]

Gag. Just turn the sound off. Who wants to here "She'll be Comin' 'Round the Mountain? Plus who cares what some Italian reporter has to say. The video footage is great though.

[neverletugo21]

Never The Beatles Went They Makin News If You Don't Like His Video Just Don't Watch But Don't Badmouth The Beatles

[sixtiesgurl92]

it's still interesting to watch! thank you :)

[acerb45666555]

add english subtitles.

[giodalle]

Awesome! I never saw any footage from their India trip.

'Please don't take my sunshine away'

I used to sing it when I was little :)

[kirkirluv]

this is very cool!!!

[pixelius]

Fantastic

[divinegod102]

Damn, that's Maharishi Mahesh Yogie...Why didn't they visit Vietnam?

[p0llenp0ny]

Umm cuz there was a fucking war going on?
