No, they are standing on a wall of some roof edge!! See the trees in the background? John is standing on a raised area and it gives the illusion he is floating on air.
I have that Life mag that I got when it came out.

Whoa! Must really be a rare find then....
I really like the Newsweek "Bugs About Beatles" cover from 1964... should have checked how much that one was going for!
Edited after checking: They're going for about $50-$99...
