HELP!'s Toboggan - Beatlemania! on Waymarking.com

The coordinates are given for the front door into the Hard Rock Cafe, Denver, CO. Once inside, go into the first floor dinning room area and look up over the bar area. There on the small wall above the bar and below the second floor railing is the toboggan used by the Beatles in a scene of their movie, "HELP!." There are some photos of them riding the sled and there is a metal plaque under the toboggan and pictures that give details about the sled's use in the film.
The plaque is difficult to read in the dim light, but here is what it says: "HELP! TOBOGGAN This oak toboggan was used in the Beatles' second major motion picture, "HELP!." The Fab Four can be seen sliding down a mountain on this sled in the film's Swiss Alps scene. During the scene, two mad British riding on a ski lift grab Ringo from the toboggan by tying a rope around his foot. Ringo hangs upside down while the rest of the band continues sliding down the mountain chanting, "Ho,Ho,HO." When the rope breaks, Ringo falls and rolls down the mountain screaming, "Ouch,Ouch,Ouch," until he finally catches up with his friends and hops back on this toboggan at the bottom of the hill. The Beatles crash into a pile of snow and fall off."
