Now that's an excellent question.

First of all, since John wrote the song entitled, "I Am the Walrus," then you'd have to conclude that John was the walrus. However, in the lyrics for John's "Glass Onion," he clearly states, "The walrus was Paul."

And then you have to consider who is actually wearing the walrus costume on Magical Mystery Tour. Most people believe it is Paul, because the walrus costume was the only black one. However, in one of the inserted photos from Magical Mystery Tour, there is a photo of the Beatles playing outdoors with little eggmen surrounding them, and some policemen standing atop a wall in the distance. Clearly, the figure playing the drums must be Ringo. The remaining three costumed Beatles are a right-handed guitar player, a left-handed guitar player, and a piano player in the walrus costume. Since the left-handed guitar player HAS to be Paul, then the walrus must be either John or George. Since George was never photographed performing on the piano, I'd have to say that John was the walrus.
