While Paul McCartney was working on the recreation of the iconic artwork for THE BEATLES‘ Abbey Road album, he was almost struck by a car! This was all while he was shooting his daughter’s Abbey Road documentary, titled If These Walls Could Talk.
Speaking about the incident, Mary McCartney said: “The bit where the car nearly ran him over on the zebra crossing, that was so funny. As we were leaving [the studio], I said, ‘I’ll film you [on the crossing],’ and he went over and this car totally didn’t stop for him.”
Abbey Road Studios shared the footage on Twitter with following caption: “Close call for Paul McCartney on the Abbey Road crossing! In this clip from Mary McCartney’s new documentary, a car narrowly misses Paul as he recreates the Abbey Road album cover.”
