Paul McCartney surprises unsuspecting elevator riders – and they lose their wits!

Is there a better joke to shoot than surprising people with Paul McCartney?

Giving steaming jackets and sitting in velvet loungers, the host of the party and the former Beatle hid their faces pretending to read the newspaper. When the elevator doors opened, unsuspecting tourists were greeted at the sight of two gentlemen in the middle of the landing.

First, Fallon dipped his diary to reveal his face, and elevator passengers laughed and smiled with pleasant enthusiasm. Then McCartney dipped his diary and the passengers became completely insane.
