John Lennon faked his death so that he could sneak off the India to live in a Buddhist Monastery as he got fed up with the demands for The Beatles to get back together.
He was also tired of Yoko Ono nagging him, not to mention he was tired of her awful singing as well.
John Lennon was wearing a bullet proof vest when he was allegedly shot, then he had a plastic body set for cremation, so that Yoko Ono would easily be tricked into thinking he died.
John Lennon was spotted in the Monastery by a reporter who managed to read his secret diary.
