      Okay, please read my story posted above which occurred back in 1987, 1988. Since then, I believe there is a person that looks just like me where I live now. I friend I know whom is from this town thought he encountered me and asked me why I did not speak to him at gas station at the edge of town. I said are you sure it was me and he said yes. I asked the day and general time he thought he encountered me and there was no way I was in that part of town, etc. Fast forward 2 years later at a popular breakfast restaurant, a man approached me and started talking about the Property Owners Association where he lives and seemed to assume I knew what he was speaking of. I told him I did not live there and he proceeded to tell me I looked exactly like a near by neighbor, etc. The neighborhood from where this man was from and commenting on P.O.A. issues was in very close proximity of the gas station where a friend greeted whom he thought was me but was not.

    I've seen my doppelganger! I saw them when I was younger, in a Halloween makeup book.
    My mum sat me down all serious and asked me if anyone had taken pictures of me. They even had the same damn hairstyle as me. Legit completely identical.
    I still have the book, and it's bloody creepy.
    The other child wasn't named, so I have no idea who this doppelganger actually is, or if we still look the same.

      @sprinkleofsuga7186 5 років тому +9

      I'm an artist too and I was literally just thinking of this! The fine details of the face talked about in the video are also really crucial to get right in making accurate portraits. If I'm drawing someone and if I make their nose slightly too wide, their eyes slightly too big, etc, it instantly doesn't look like the original person to me anymore. Likely because I study faces all the time, Amanda and Meredith didn't look alike to me.

They were hunched over laughing just like I would - the expression was ME. She had glasses like me and everything. It was crazy - and others I shared it with expressed that it looked just like me too. I am willing to bet that if I saw the other female in person though, I probably would not see the similiarity as striking as I did in the photo.

    As someone who is slightly uncomfortable “looking people in the eyes” unless I know them or am comfortable around them I’ve noticed that no matter how well I know someone, if I look at their face for a bit I’ll begin to notice “new features”. Nothing that drastically changes my mental image of how they look, but novel enough to make me become more aware of the uniqueness of their specific facial features. Personally it’s most noticeable in their eyes, skin texture/color, the shape of their face, and their mouth/teeth. The eyes are especially noticeable to me because you begin to notice the coloration of their irises like specks of green or yellow in lighter color eyes, or darker and lighter specks of brown or specks of an almost yellow in brown eyes. I always thought there had to be some explanation besides me just being inattentive of facial features when meeting new people, but as I began to notice this I realized that it happens to everyone I know regardless of familiarity. Knowing how immensely unique each feature is and especially how unique specific combinations of features are along with our brain being a sort of biological pattern recognition software makes this experience I’ve had make so much sense. It’s like trying to recreate an image from memory with only occasional flashes of the original image to build off of. Our initial “mental recreation” starts off somewhat accurate depending on our individual ability to recognize and memorize certain novel features while simultaneously still largely relying on our previous experiences of certain similar features to build upon. As we then focus on specific features, those “educated guesses” are replaced with the more accurate information that then subtly changes our mental image of that person. I don’t know how many people can relate to this experience because I personally had to work to build the “skill” of noticing these subtle shifts in my own perception, but it’s fascinating that this experience is rooted in our brains pattern recognition ability and it’s tendency to “fill in” incomplete, inaccurate, or flawed information. It’s especially fascinating to me how smoothly this process seems to happen in order to create a complete image because it shows just how well suited our brains are at identifying/creating faces with even a tiny fraction of the information available. Brains are amazing!!!

It’s also the reason I often confuse two characters that look nothing alike. I’ll just be watching a show when I decide to look closer at an actor’s face and I’ll realise a couple small details I didn’t notice before and suddenly they look like a completely different person!

    Good caricaturists can quickly figure out what makes particular people's faces unique and recognizable, and then amplify those characteristics through exaggeration. The pictures they draw aren't photo-accurate, but we know who the subjects are. I think these artists have an innate ability to recognize facial schemata as mentioned in this video. Take a look some time at the drawings of the legendary Al Hirschfeld, who worked for the New York Times for half a century, going to Broadway show after Broadway show, and occasionally movies, recreating stars' faces with just a few lines. You'll be able to recognize, say, Julie Andrews or Zero Mostel or Carol Channing almost immediately if you're already familiar with the facial schemata of those actors.

      As a person who draws realistic face people. They do look alike but Amandas nose is smaller (the bridge) and Meredith nose looks wider. Amandas eyebrows has thicker shape while Meredith has thinner and you know when ur nose can connect with eyebrows shaping like the noses line? If you do, Amandas nose connects to her eyebrows while Meredith connects with her eyelids and also Amadas Eye shape looks softer while Meredith has sharper shape. Thats all i could see the difference but i still could see why they look alike. I think its because of the eyes and face shape and maybe lips makes it looks similar.
