The Beatles broke up in 1970… or did they?

A man that goes by the pseudonym James Richards claims that on Sept. 9, 2009 he was taking a scenic drive through Del Puerto Canyon, just west of Turlock, CA. Richards allegedly tripped over a rabbit hole after pulling over to let his dog go to the bathroom and knocked himself unconscious. He woke up in a strange room in which he claims contained furniture, electronics and a man that called himself Jonas. After Richards noticed an unfamiliar machine with the acronym “ARP-D,” Jonas explained that the machine was used to travel into different dimensions, which is precisely how he stumbled upon Richards, passed out in the hot California sun. Richards was informed that travelers normally will not bring people from other dimensions back with them, but Jonas, finding him unconscious, was convinced that Richards was in need of urgent care.

Jonas explained that dimension travel in his dimension, although costly and dangerous, was a regular occurrence in his world and was invented several decades before. Suspecting that nobody back in what Jonas referred to as the “Earth Dimension” would believe that he was taken to a parallel dimension by this mysterious stranger, Richards snagged a cassette tape labeled “Everyday Chemistry- The Beatles” as proof of his his visit to an alternate dimension.

“Everyday Chemistry” is an album by The Beatles that not only was recorded many years after they broke up, but never existed in the Earth Dimension. Jonas informed Richards that The Beatles are still alive and well in his dimension as well as currently making music and touring around the world.

After returning back to the Earth Dimension, Richards created the website thebeatlesneverbrokeup.com in which he told the full story of finding himself in a different dimension as well as uploading “Everyday Chemistry” for anybody to listen to. Although avid Beatles fans may argue that the album sounds like mashups of individual Beatles’ solo projects, nobody can argue about the uncanny similarities to the music made by The Beatles.
