Mitchel FederanMitchel Federan posed as George, Paul, Ringo and John whilst in London to celebrate his birthday in 2018On 8 August 1969, one of the most-imitated events in pop music history occurred.
The Beatles - George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and John Lennon - gathered for a brief photoshoot outside the EMI Studios in London, where the band were working.
Iain Macmillan took the rather modest shot of the musicians on a zebra crossing on the B507 road, an image which would adorn the cover of the band's Abbey Road album.
BBCThe Beatles recorded nearly all their studio albums at Abbey Road, including Help! and Sgt Pepper'sFor five decades people have come from far and wide to try to recreate the Beatles' poses.
Here are some of your efforts:
Marcelo Santos do Ó Marcelo's attempt to recreate the Fab Four did not go to planMarcelo came to London from Brazil to work on the Olympic Games. When he and his colleagues tried to recreate the cover the 40-year-old from Sao Paulo tripped at a crucial moment.

"Everybody laughed so much," he says.
Amy HolmanAmy Holman gives us all quadruple visionYou can never have too much of Amy Holman, apparently. The American student decided to go it alone with her take on the album cover.
"I thought it would be funny to recreate the photo myself," says the 18-year-old.
"My dad snapped the photo while I ran across the street! I photo-shopped it later of course."
Fernanda MarquesJulio went head over heels for his attemptJúlio Andrade is a musician from Brazil who says he wanted to "represent something of Brazil through this dance."
Tradition is not for everyone.
