That was awesome, and a point in time that the reporter sounds like he has only read about and was too young to had been there, bringing the old man back to his glory days.

Me and my wife were born 4 days apart, in the same hospital. Due to complications I was there longer and we ended up in the same nursery. We have a picture of me and she’s rt there in a crib diagonal from mine. Weird.
Not really weird. Here's the thing about coincidences. What would be weird is if everyone had some connection like to this to their future spouse. But given there are literally billions of people on earth, it would actually be much "weirder" if these kind of coincidences NEVER occurred. That is to say, they seem odd when you look at a sample size of one, but when you look at a sample size of billions, you would expect some coincidences like to this to show up from time to time. If you happen to be one of the people where this happens, it certainly seems weird to you. To put it another way- over any person's life, SOMETHING coincidental will eventually happen. When it does happen, our brains recognize it as significant. But you have to look at it as one possible coinicdence out of millions that didnt occur. Because we cant predict what that specific seemingly odd coincidence will be for an indicvidual person, when it does happen it seems memorable and significant. But it's just like how if you flip a coin enough times (like eevry second of your life for days and days and years) it will eventually land on it's side. If it landed on it's side the first time, it would seem weird. but if you flip it all the time, it wouldnt when it eventually happened. Your entire life is sort of like this coin flipping thing. The few times a weird coincidence happens, you notice it and it seems like a coin landing on it's side. But people don't realize they have actually been constantly flipping the coin, just never thinking about it when it DIDNT land on its side.
@@paultardspambot that totally covers random coincidences nicely.. But what about the twins (and it's happened with multiple sets).. Same name okay it's common so likely, marrying 2 women same names, naming their sons and dogs an all the other stuff..
When I was 9, I was in a parade in a gorilla mask, a boy on a bike was dressed as a gorilla, rode past me and said, "you are a gorilla too" Years later I was married 15 years or so, I was looking at a photo album at my mother-in-law's and I saw a boy on a bike in a photo wearing a gorilla suit, I asked if he remembered being in a certain parade and there was another gorilla, he said yes, and I told him, I was the other gorilla.

The first one reminded me of my very own true love story. I went to a Bryan Adams concert in 2004 at the age of 15 and I spotted a boy in the crowd, we both looked at each other at the same time, our eyes locked and it was love at first sight, I was there with my aunt, cousins and sister and it wasn’t possible to give him my digits. He followed me out to the parking lot after the concert ended to try his best at getting it, but to no avail, my aunts car, a Silver Matiz, number plate 3313 pulled out of the parking lot while I saw his sad face disappear into the crowd of other cars. I went back the next day to look for him at the venue of the concert, after waiting a good hour I thought I’d never find him. I wrote about him in my diary dubbing him “My Bryan Adams guy” 2009 I get called to a house party, there were two boys standing at the gate of my friends house. I drank a lot that night, and one of these boys was decent enough to offer me a ride back home cause it was late. We rode up to the front of my house on his motorcycle, he took off his helmet to say goodnight, he was about to ask me for my phone number, but he paused and glanced ahead of him. He looked hard at the car parked in front of us and asked, is that your car?? Coincidentally my aunt had given her car to my sister to use as she worked the graveyard shift. The Silver Matiz 3313. I said it was my sisters. He looked deep into my eyes and said. “You’re my Bryan Adams girl”. (Literally in tears rn) He said he went back to look for me the next day. It was the most meaningful moment I have ever experienced. I haven’t doubted destiny or creating it ever since. We dated for 4 years. He passed away in 2013 while we were on a break from trying to get our lives back together from drug addiction. He was the love of my life, I’d give anything to be with him again. It was just too good to be true I guess. Coincidences are so weird, but not as weird as destiny or fate. On a sadder note, I think I might die alone. 😕 Have a great day y’all. Xo
I experienced 2 incredible coincidences in my life: 1) my mom and I were taking my little brother to register at a new school met another woman with her children doing the same and our family became good friends. What made it a weird coincidence is that years afterwards one day our mothers were talking about how they both had a feeling they met before. They started talking about their past and when they got to their childhood when they were about 8 or 9 years old, they discovered they were distant cousins who met each other at a family gathering over 40 years earlier held in a town in another state. Both had married and moved to different states living in different cities before ending up in the same city and meeting each other on that fateful day and did not even know it at the time. 2) I was taking a road trip vacation driving from Florida to California. In a small town in Texas, I stopped at a random restaurant off the freeway and as I walked in I met an old friend from college whom I have not seen in nearly 10 years coming out of the same restaurant. He was going the other way to the east coast and had also randomly pick a place to eat.
I experienced something similar one day: When I was about 24 I visited my old hometown which I left when I was 11 years old. I went to my old school and a young man came up to me and called me by my name. I was totally perplexed why he knew me and found out that he was a collegue from the school I moved to when I left my hometown. We used to sit next to each other for at least one year but he never told me that he originated from the same hometown like me. The crazy thing is that we were about 14 when we saw each other the last time - I'm still amazed that he recognized me at all!
My mom is a teaching assistant. We just recently moved to a new house and she was on zoom. She looked at the background and realized the kid she works with lives in our old house.
I have a coincidence to share as well. In 1998 my husband and I and friends were out celebrating bringing in the New Year. We had a group picture taken as we were three couples, and some random lady included herself in our picture. Fast forward to the year 2002 my father got remarried. I was invited to a family function with him and his new wife, and I seen that random lady that included herself on our picture. Come to find out, she was my stepmothers best friend!
There’s one coincidence you didn’t mention that I know. Once there’s was an old man who saved a baby that was abandoned in an alley way. He save the baby and took him to a daycare. That same old man got in a car crash and the man that saved him was a paramedic that was the same baby he saved 30 years ago.
I worked in OB, My patient, her mother and the new baby were together when the pediatrition came to visit. After some conversation, it turned out that grandma was born in the same midwestern small town. A little more conversation, and they also had the same birthday! So the grandma and pediatrician were cared for in the same nursery over 50 years earlier!
I had a group of friends that we would hang around together in high school. One day we decided to meet at a local amusement park and when we all met that afternoon, all of us were wearing identical clothes.
I remember I knew someone who had a freaky coincidence. When he was born his parents planted a tree but when he was 28 and driving in a storm. Sadly he got in a car accident and passed but the tree on th same night got struck by lightning and died
My parents were born in different parts of the UK and met whilst working in London in the 1960s. After they were married they found out that their deceasesd paternal grand parents were buried in the same graveyard in Norfolk, England. Stranger still is the fact that they are buried in plots next to each. other.
Interesting! Here is a synchronicity story: In 2014, on the last day of my visit to Cambodia, I asked the receptionist at the hotel lobby where I could donate toothbrushes. An American lady in the lobby overheard me and said she was heading over to the capital (a 6 hour boat ride) to volunteer at a orphanage and said she would be happy to take the toothbrushes to the orphanage. When she asked how many we could donate, I asked her how many children are at the orphanage. She said 3,000. I rushed to the local market (where I was earlier in the day) and was able to find 3,000 toothbrushes for her to take to the orphanage. I asked the American woman where she was from; she said San Francisco. It turns out, we live 20 minutes away from each other on the other side of the world. I connected with her on Facebook that same evening and noticed the American woman was very much into traveling and was very keen at noticing the little coincidental surprises that life gives us, including moments of synchronicity. She posted about our meeting in the lobby and her excitement taking the 3,000 toothbrushes to the orphanage in the capital. She also mentioned how our meeting at the hotel lobby was a welcomed coincidental surprise - even a moment of synchronicity. It was the name of the organization which donated the toothbrushes that really gave her a sense of synchronicity - Synced Smiles. www.syncedsmiles.com/
The strangest coincidence I witnessed is when I took a photo of a lightning bolt and another person took a photo of the same bolt but was in a different location. Here is the weird part that person is who I bought my townhome from a year before. We both lived in the same house and took a photo of the same lightning bolt.
@@raylovelace8588 I was being born when one of my uncles got shot at, paralysing his whole lower body. He probably hated me a lot when I was little and I wouldn't be too surprised if he still has a grudge on me now.
ok here is one. years ago a man rides his motorcycle but is killed when he is struck by a taxi. a couple of years later on the same day, his brother rides the same motorcycle...and is killed on the same street, by a taxi. same driver and cab...with same passenger
What about that guy who almost got killed with a bullet that got stuck in a tree. Then he came back like 20 years later or something and blew up the tree and the bullet came back out at full force and killed him. It took 20 years to kill its victim
i imagine how happy the goal keeper was during that interview when we doesn't know if how he's feeling that day then suddenly reminisce about the game that he won't forget.. we should always try to ask people bout the good old days.. and share happiness! Godspeed everyone! ❤️
As a teen we came across each other and talked while waiting for the bus. We had a super intense connection right off the bat but went our separate ways until I was spending the night at my bestfriends house and i woke up to him coming into the house with his dad to work on the remodeling job. we both told each other we had been hoping to run into each other again and we had said "ah the one that got away" about each other after parting ways that day. We started dating, but ultimately it didn't work out- he had been on and off with his ex and ended up wanting to get back with her. After this we coincidentally would end up completely randomly getting jobs working together at the same time- not once but twice- and ended up becoming extremely close. Even tho we weren't meant for each other in that way, we have always had a strong, unexplainable kind of connection even today 15 years later.
Tommy Lawrence In February 2015, was inadvertently interviewed in the street by BBC journalist Stuart Flinders who was asking elderly people if they remembered the 1966-67 FA Cup Fifth Round game between Liverpool and Everton. Lawrence replied "I do, I played in it. I was the goalkeeper for Liverpool he died 10 January 2018 (aged 77)
One of my alltime favorite books is 'Incredible Coincidence' by Allan Vaughan. I re-read it many times. So many happenings that you could never predict!
It’s actually not unusual, and the odds of it happening are quite good, or quite probable, just not likely to happen to any particular person, it’s like winning the lottery. Matt Parker talked about it in one of his videos.
"The Wreck of the Titan" wasn't as much of a coincidence as you might imagine. The author was an expert on maritime safety, and he observed that maritime safety laws weren't keeping up with the rapidly growing size of ocean liners. He wrote "The Wreck of the Titan" as a warning of what could happen if conditions continued as they were. There was, however, one major coincidence you overlooked: In the entire history of luxury liners, only one sank due to striking an iceberg, and that was the Titanic.
Is it weird that one of my friends went to the same primary and high school as me, has the same initials, same birthday, we’re born in the same hospital about an hour apart, so probably the same nursery, our older siblings were house captains together. I think it’s crazy that we met eachother.
The father of my daughter we met through a friend ..found out he use to be at his cousins house all the time as a kid where we lived across the street and use to play with them..even hav e pictures. .he's 8 yrs older me. It's crazy the chance. Found out when. We were talkk ing about childhood and stuff.
As a construction worker and doing demolition and restoration on old houses, i love showing old elders here on my island duggin up old photos of them or an event that happened a long time ago on our tiny history's island and seeing that genuine light and "holy shit i remember that!" look on their faces and how much that meant to them the way Tommy Lawrences face looked 😊👍
I had a very similar experience with the photo coincidence. I went to a drifting competition to watch all the cars and a year later I met this girl. She had gone to that same show and we both had photos of one another in the background! I was actually blown away
In July of 1948, three cousins were born in the same hospital on the same day. All with different last names all boys. One was myself, another was related to my mother a few removed (Norman) and the third was my Mothers, brothers child, (Stephen). Stephen, sadly, died of Cystic Fibrosis before he was nine months old. Norman and myself basically lost contact for years until we both attended the same high school for our freshman year. The next year my family moved away to an adjacent state and we didn't see each other again, in fact, we still haven't. I attended college in my resident state and another person that I meet in that freshman high school year, attended the same college as myself. We became close friends through those years. After graduation I went in the service and I don't know what my other cousin Norman did. However, about 4 years after college I met a girl and we decided to get married. I knew that I wanted my friend as my best man. We chose our wedding date and I called him to ask if he would be my best man. Here's where it gets weird. Just the day before my long lost cousin Norman, whom unbeknownst to me also knew my best friend, had called him and asked him to be his best man. Turned out that we both by pure chance had gotten married on the same day, chose the same person that we wanted to be our best man and both married a girl by the name of Gail. It's almost scary. We had very little contact through almost all of our lives and strictly by chance were born the same day, in the same place, according to my mother about 1/2 hour apart (me first), never really had much contact again until we had our first year of high school, separated to different states, got married on the same day, to a woman named Gail with both of us wanting to choose the same person as best man, not even realizing that we all knew each other. My grandkids really get freaked out by that massive coincidence. I kind of wish I knew how to contact him now just to see if he had kids and what their names were, but that might freak me out.
It was so sweet how the elderly man remembered his young life. My grandparents have pictures to when they got married. but only my grandfather is still alive, my grandma died in May. :(
this one would been a good one for the list also December 5 might just go down as one of history's most coincidental days ever. On that day in 1664, a ship sank in the Menai Strait, located off the coast of North Wales. 80 passengers died - there was only one survivor, a man named Hugh Williams. That same day in 1785, another shipwreck occurred in the same strait. Once again, all passengers died except for a man by the name of Hugh Williams. By now it should come as no surprise that yet again in 1820, a third ship lost its battle against the sea, leaving only one survivor. His name? Hugh Williams
When i got married, my husband’s grandma who lives in another island came. I saw her on video calls before but i didn’t think of anything. When my dad saw her for the first time, he bursted on tears because my husband’s grandma looks exactly like my dad’s late mother. My grandma died when i was a kid so i have blurry memories about her that’s why i didn’t realize before. But we’re not related whatsoever, it’s just pure doppelganger.
I've had a few, though perhaps not as dramatic. During an end of the school year Grade 8 trip to a summer campground, a local gentlemen who knew the camp director taught us all how to canoe. He had a beard and no mustache, a detail which stuck in my memory, since you don't see that too often. Anyway, jump ahead to my first year at university. The last of my 3 dorm roommates arrives with his parents. As we help them bring stuff in, I can't hep but notice his dad's beard and no mustache. When asked where they're from, it turns out to be a small town not far from the summer camp where we had that Gr. 8 trip (I also camp counselled there in high school for a few summers, so I knew the area pretty well). I ask if they know the camp. They do. I decide to straight up ask his dad if he ever taught a Gr. 8 class how to canoe there. He looks at me funny and says, "Yes, why?" I say, "Well, five years ago you taught me and my class. I remember your beard." Small world.
My classmates said i looked like that kid who was in kinder garten and i was a 2nd grader, when i went to find him, the teacher told everyone to go back in the room, dang. I could’ve met my doppelgänger.
Really no one knows about the goalkeeper . You can never forget ronaldo or Messi . But why we should forget him . He smile was so realeastic , that someone reall asked about. Loved it man , the liverpool goalkeeper made my day
The same thing kinda happened to me. I went to preschool with this boy never saw him again until I started high school. We came best friends and now he's my boyfriend. I found out yesterday we went to the same preschool.
He was busting to blurt out that he played in it! So happy he was that someone coincidentally asked him about the game and he was actually the goal keeper☺️

The Jim twins, what were the odds they would meet on the same day?
Meet on the same day?? Not funny if that's the joke
Well it would be difficult to meet on different days you know...
Yes, I know! Don't spoil it!
Chances are roughly 1/500

I have a coincidence to share as well. In 1998 my husband and I and friends were out celebrating bringing in the New Year. We had a group picture taken as we were three couples, and some random lady included herself in our picture. Fast forward to the year 2002 my father got remarried. I was invited to a family function with him and his new wife, and I seen that random lady that included herself on our picture. Come to find out, she was my stepmothers best friend!
I loved the expression on the liverpool goalkeepers’ face.☺️
See you in ten years when this is in everyone’s recommended

Imagine all those coincidences that we will never know...
There’s one coincidence you didn’t mention that I know. Once there’s was an old man who saved a baby that was abandoned in an alley way. He save the baby and took him to a daycare. That same old man got in a car crash and the man that saved him was a paramedic that was the same baby he saved 30 years ago.
The old man’s facial expressions were so heartwarming, you can tell how happy he is people still remember him. 😊
Tommy Lawrence, that made my heart happy ! He was so happy ! It made his day ❤️
What are the odds that I'd be watching this video at this exact moment in this exact year? There is no such thing as coincidence !
Wow man 😅😅
Omg the chances
Realllyyyy 🙁

Please that I may never watch this shite ever again.

Wanna know a CRAZZZYYY coincidence...
I turned on the fan and it started blowing in me
jvncltr that’s insane usually they blow on you
U switched to the cringe level
jvncltr in me ok buddy
I dont need a fan for that to happen to me (lol)
That's the SICKEST thing that's occurred in this thread.
“That’s right, I do, I played in it, I was goalkeeper for Liverpool”
Such genuine smile, this brought warm joy to my heart 😊😊
I worked in OB, My patient, her mother and the new baby were together when the pediatrition came to visit. After some conversation, it turned out that grandma was born in the same midwestern small town. A little more conversation, and they also had the same birthday! So the grandma and pediatrician were cared for in the same nursery over 50 years earlier!
Awh, that old man looked so happy, it was adorable. :')
I had a group of friends that we would hang around together in high school. One day we decided to meet at a local amusement park and when we all met that afternoon, all of us were wearing identical clothes.
I'm only liking this because of that old man's happiness in his eyes 😍 I'm melting for him😌
I'm wondering where you get all these information from?
I remember I knew someone who had a freaky coincidence. When he was born his parents planted a tree but when he was 28 and driving in a storm. Sadly he got in a car accident and passed but the tree on th same night got struck by lightning and died
My parents were born in different parts of the UK and met whilst working in London in the 1960s. After they were married they found out that their deceasesd paternal grand parents were buried in the same graveyard in Norfolk, England. Stranger still is the fact that they are buried in plots next to each. other.
Omg that goalies eyes lite up, he was so happy to share that moment in his life. I got goose bumps looking at his face
I'm convinced that the twins are actually the same person amd there's some weird time travel paradox here
How did you make this without the Kennedy and Lincoln coincidences?
Khalil Archer I was wondering that as well

An even bigger coincidence. This is at 47 likes. My lucky number

Interesting! Here is a synchronicity story: In 2014, on the last day of my visit to Cambodia, I asked the receptionist at the hotel lobby where I could donate toothbrushes. An American lady in the lobby overheard me and said she was heading over to the capital (a 6 hour boat ride) to volunteer at a orphanage and said she would be happy to take the toothbrushes to the orphanage. When she asked how many we could donate, I asked her how many children are at the orphanage. She said 3,000. I rushed to the local market (where I was earlier in the day) and was able to find 3,000 toothbrushes for her to take to the orphanage.
I asked the American woman where she was from; she said San Francisco. It turns out, we live 20 minutes away from each other on the other side of the world.
I connected with her on Facebook that same evening and noticed the American woman was very much into traveling and was very keen at noticing the little coincidental surprises that life gives us, including moments of synchronicity. She posted about our meeting in the lobby and her excitement taking the 3,000 toothbrushes to the orphanage in the capital. She also mentioned how our meeting at the hotel lobby was a welcomed coincidental surprise - even a moment of synchronicity. It was the name of the organization which donated the toothbrushes that really gave her a sense of synchronicity - Synced Smiles.

The joy in the old mans face is enchanted
The strangest coincidence I witnessed is when I took a photo of a lightning bolt and another person took a photo of the same bolt but was in a different location. Here is the weird part that person is who I bought my townhome from a year before. We both lived in the same house and took a photo of the same lightning bolt.
I was born on the same day as someone else, crazy right. Huge coincidence
OK, I've got a real one for you. I was born 29 years to the day after my great-grandfather murdered my grandfather.
I was born the same day as my friend, she it totally opposite of me!
@@raylovelace8588 wtf
@@raylovelace8588 I was being born when one of my uncles got shot at, paralysing his whole lower body. He probably hated me a lot when I was little and I wouldn't be too surprised if he still has a grudge on me now.
Same omg 😱
ok here is one. years ago a man rides his motorcycle but is killed when he is struck by a taxi.
a couple of years later on the same day, his brother rides the same motorcycle...and is killed on the same street, by a taxi. same driver and cab...with same passenger
I've heard of that one before that one is crazy
It was not a couple of years but one year later
Wow
What about that guy who almost got killed with a bullet that got stuck in a tree. Then he came back like 20 years later or something and blew up the tree and the bullet came back out at full force and killed him. It took 20 years to kill its victim
Lol! Nice joke!
Rest In Peace Thomas Johnstone Lawrence. ❤️
i imagine how happy the goal keeper was during that interview when we doesn't know if how he's feeling that day then suddenly reminisce about the game that he won't forget.. we should always try to ask people bout the good old days.. and share happiness! Godspeed everyone! ❤️
As a teen we came across each other and talked while waiting for the bus. We had a super intense connection right off the bat but went our separate ways until I was spending the night at my bestfriends house and i woke up to him coming into the house with his dad to work on the remodeling job. we both told each other we had been hoping to run into each other again and we had said "ah the one that got away" about each other after parting ways that day. We started dating, but ultimately it didn't work out- he had been on and off with his ex and ended up wanting to get back with her. After this we coincidentally would end up completely randomly getting jobs working together at the same time- not once but twice- and ended up becoming extremely close. Even tho we weren't meant for each other in that way, we have always had a strong, unexplainable kind of connection even today 15 years later.
Tommy Lawrence In February 2015, was inadvertently interviewed in the street by BBC journalist Stuart Flinders who was asking elderly people if they remembered the 1966-67 FA Cup Fifth Round game between Liverpool and Everton. Lawrence replied "I do, I played in it. I was the goalkeeper for Liverpool he died 10 January 2018 (aged 77)
One of my alltime favorite books is 'Incredible Coincidence' by Allan Vaughan. I re-read it many times. So many happenings that you could never predict!
Thanks for the recommendation! I was just wondering about how to find books on this topic 👍👍👍
The crazy thing is that the “omg my husband/wife is in the background of this photo from 20 years ago” thing happens so often
Elder Fire should i search all of my photos now? 😂
It’s actually not unusual, and the odds of it happening are quite good, or quite probable, just not likely to happen to any particular person, it’s like winning the lottery. Matt Parker talked about it in one of his videos.
If you thought the twins story was wild, you want to watch a movie called "Three Identical Strangers".
"The Wreck of the Titan" wasn't as much of a coincidence as you might imagine. The author was an expert on maritime safety, and he observed that maritime safety laws weren't keeping up with the rapidly growing size of ocean liners. He wrote "The Wreck of the Titan" as a warning of what could happen if conditions continued as they were. There was, however, one major coincidence you overlooked: In the entire history of luxury liners, only one sank due to striking an iceberg, and that was the Titanic.
Is it weird that one of my friends went to the same primary and high school as me, has the same initials, same birthday, we’re born in the same hospital about an hour apart, so probably the same nursery, our older siblings were house captains together. I think it’s crazy that we met eachother.
2:11 just lighted my heart, he was so cute
The father of my daughter we met through a friend ..found out he use to be at his cousins house all the time as a kid where we lived across the street and use to play with them..even hav e pictures.
.he's 8 yrs older me. It's crazy the chance. Found out when. We were talkk ing about childhood and stuff.
Titanic was an inside job. Captain was found with a copy of "Futility" in his coat pocket... 🛳
Wait really??? It would have been bigger news if it were real.
@@egleliin8551 there wasn't bigger news
@@woodstyleah I know. That's the point
That is incorrect - he went down with the ship and was never found.
As a construction worker and doing demolition and restoration on old houses, i love showing old elders here on my island duggin up old photos of them or an event that happened a long time ago on our tiny history's island and seeing that genuine light and "holy shit i remember that!" look on their faces and how much that meant to them the way Tommy Lawrences face looked 😊👍
It’s so sad that tommy passed away. It was on the ten not the ninth though. Bless him he looked so happy.😭
tommy laurence made me so happy
I had a very similar experience with the photo coincidence. I went to a drifting competition to watch all the cars and a year later I met this girl. She had gone to that same show and we both had photos of one another in the background! I was actually blown away

In July of 1948, three cousins were born in the same hospital on the same day. All with different last names all boys. One was myself, another was related to my mother a few removed (Norman) and the third was my Mothers, brothers child, (Stephen). Stephen, sadly, died of Cystic Fibrosis before he was nine months old. Norman and myself basically lost contact for years until we both attended the same high school for our freshman year. The next year my family moved away to an adjacent state and we didn't see each other again, in fact, we still haven't. I attended college in my resident state and another person that I meet in that freshman high school year, attended the same college as myself.
We became close friends through those years. After graduation I went in the service and I don't know what my other cousin Norman did. However, about 4 years after college I met a girl and we decided to get married. I knew that I wanted my friend as my best man. We chose our wedding date and I called him to ask if he would be my best man. Here's where it gets weird. Just the day before my long lost cousin Norman, whom unbeknownst to me also knew my best friend, had called him and asked him to be his best man.
Turned out that we both by pure chance had gotten married on the same day, chose the same person that we wanted to be our best man and both married a girl by the name of Gail. It's almost scary. We had very little contact through almost all of our lives and strictly by chance were born the same day, in the same place, according to my mother about 1/2 hour apart (me first), never really had much contact again until we had our first year of high school, separated to different states, got married on the same day, to a woman named Gail with both of us wanting to choose the same person as best man, not even realizing that we all knew each other. My grandkids really get freaked out by that massive coincidence. I kind of wish I knew how to contact him now just to see if he had kids and what their names were, but that might freak me out.
It was so sweet how the elderly man remembered his young life. My grandparents have pictures to when they got married. but only my grandfather is still alive, my grandma died in May. :(
I am sorry
1:54 that’s so heart warming to se a old man getting the 20 year old porud face
i don’t think the twin one is a coincidence, twin telepathy
this one would been a good one for the list also December 5 might just go down as one of history's most coincidental days ever. On that day in 1664, a ship sank in the Menai Strait, located off the coast of North Wales. 80 passengers died - there was only one survivor, a man named Hugh Williams.
That same day in 1785, another shipwreck occurred in the same strait. Once again, all passengers died except for a man by the name of Hugh Williams.
By now it should come as no surprise that yet again in 1820, a third ship lost its battle against the sea, leaving only one survivor. His name? Hugh Williams
Wow somebody really ought to stop that immortal shipwrecking vampire sailor, Hugh Williams, before he does any more damage!
the twin one is just so crazy how many things were the same...amazing
Well, for the first time, ever, this is the only video I've watched, whose thumbnail really IS in it! Thank you!
Amazing... I felt Tommy's happiness in my soul!!! RIP
Idk why but seeing the old man's expressions melted my heart and gave me a smile the whole day.
This vid is uploaded on my bday. COINCIDENCE???
When i got married, my husband’s grandma who lives in another island came. I saw her on video calls before but i didn’t think of anything. When my dad saw her for the first time, he bursted on tears because my husband’s grandma looks exactly like my dad’s late mother. My grandma died when i was a kid so i have blurry memories about her that’s why i didn’t realize before. But we’re not related whatsoever, it’s just pure doppelganger.
I've had a few, though perhaps not as dramatic.
During an end of the school year Grade 8 trip to a summer campground, a local gentlemen who knew the camp director taught us all how to canoe. He had a beard and no mustache, a detail which stuck in my memory, since you don't see that too often. Anyway, jump ahead to my first year at university. The last of my 3 dorm roommates arrives with his parents. As we help them bring stuff in, I can't hep but notice his dad's beard and no mustache. When asked where they're from, it turns out to be a small town not far from the summer camp where we had that Gr. 8 trip (I also camp counselled there in high school for a few summers, so I knew the area pretty well). I ask if they know the camp. They do. I decide to straight up ask his dad if he ever taught a Gr. 8 class how to canoe there. He looks at me funny and says, "Yes, why?"
I say, "Well, five years ago you taught me and my class. I remember your beard."
Small world.
The twin stuff i think is a lie no way
Exactly
@@conman403 hmm
100% a lie. think about it, all those coincidences and yet, not the same haircut... even though they could have easily fixed it...

I go on a party with my bestfriend until she introduce me her boyfriend which happens to be my boyfriend for a long time. What a coincidence😂😅
My classmates said i looked like that kid who was in kinder garten and i was a 2nd grader, when i went to find him, the teacher told everyone to go back in the room, dang. I could’ve met my doppelgänger.
I love how the footballer at around 2:15 lit up when asked about the football game.
Really no one knows about the goalkeeper . You can never forget ronaldo or Messi . But why we should forget him . He smile was so realeastic , that someone reall asked about. Loved it man , the liverpool goalkeeper made my day
I just found out I went to kindergarten with my best friend I met a year ago!
Now that is a coincidence !
The same thing kinda happened to me. I went to preschool with this boy never saw him again until I started high school. We came best friends and now he's my boyfriend. I found out yesterday we went to the same preschool.
That's a very common one. I've known several people with the same story.
So did I,there was a boy in my preschool but he was older than me.Here I am in 6th grade and he is on 7th grade in the same school as me
I'm more shocked that you made a best friend in only one year?
Catchphrase of the video: “But the coincidences don’t end there.”
That Jim one was really weird
2011 : Contagion ( a fictional film about virus lockdown dead mask sanitizer failure )
2020: Real life Corona Virus
He was busting to blurt out that he played in it! So happy he was that someone coincidentally asked him about the game and he was actually the goal keeper☺️
Who else thought that the guy petting the dog and talking at the start of the video was the one who said “Hello everyone”?
No.....
Just me?....
