I saw my doppelganger getting of a train at Liverpool Street Station ( London ) when I was about 18. He noticed me and said "bloody hell mate, you're Me!" 😲 we both laughed and went on our way. 😄
Thats actually such a sweet story
Loll
That's a missed opportunity
@@PoW_22-AME_Gaming why...?
didn’t you have questions?! 😂
I am Australian and I was living in Texas. My wife said, you know, you look a lot like my neurologist. So I decided to see. She was in with her doctor and I came in about 15 minutes later. As I walked through the hospital staff and nurses were say good morning doctor, or, hello doctor have a great day....etc etc. so I got into it a bit. I would say hello to everyone. Finally , I got to the waiting room, where my wife was waiting. She had told her doctor about me, and as he walked around the corner, it was like looking in a mirror. Not only were we identical, but we even had the same beards with the identical cut. We just stood there a few feet apart staring at each other. He then said "It appears that some of my relatives moved from Italy to Australia"......we were both amazed.
Tell us more then what happened
ron nash Woow beautiful story
So are you now a neurologist and has the dude moved into your home?
I thought this story was leading somewhere else 😂
Pictures, please! lol 😁
I was in the airport and a sweet grandmother turned and got so excited when she saw me. “I thought you couldn’t come!” And she gave me big hug, I hugged her and assumed she was suffering with dementia- until her middle age daughter turned around. When I explained my name and I wasn’t who she thought, the mother screamed and dropped her bag. Even she couldn’t believe she didn’t know I wasn’t her kid, they were talking so fast! Then “my brother” turned around and “Mom! What are you freaking out about?!” She pointed at me and said she’s exactly your sister!” He rolled his eyes and looked at me, and froze. The three just stood there getting inches from my face.😂 Then the father and grandfather came up and joined the chaos, it was unreal. They were so very nice, lots of hugs and Grammy kisses.😂 They took a photo of us together and went on their way.
That's quite cool!
WOW !
the question of wether or not your Doppelgänger showed up at the airport will haunt me forever... but it is a lovely story ❤️
I can so relate to your story! At an airport lobby, a guy near my age walked up and started talking, and
calling me by a name not mine... We got chatting, and it seemed I looked exactly like his friend from
high school days just past. He said this was in Alaska, and I told him I've never been north of Oregon.
@@jaimehudson7623 Oh my goodness you too? It’s crazy!
I need this to be a series on TV! I could watch 10 seasons of this.
Same here @Molly Perry ! I can't stop smiling ☺️
Agreed let's get something going to make it happen!!
It would be interesting to see what each doppelgangers parents look like.
NYC1927 Yes!
That's an easy one- they look like a test tube.😌 These are all clones. People need to wake up.
@@blessed7fold583 lmaooo
I’ve know one pair of doppelgängers who’s parents are doppelgängers as well it’s so bizarre. But then the other set of doppelgängers I’ve seen parents are complete opposites of each other
I want my doppelganger to be rich ( and share) 😂
Who else here feels they should have put a link to the site where others can find their doppelgängers????
hipretty Great idea! My doppelgänger is "Jackie" From Roseanne.
Lisa Daniels I wanna find someone too
Have y'all tried it? Does it work? Cause now I want to try
Brandy Gipson 🙄the website is bull I think they give you matches but at least for the girl they all got filters on their face so how do you know how they actually look, plus I think you have to pay for more matches
@@brandygipson1675 I did not work for me, they gave me pages and pages of matches all with different percentages of match variations. The closest was supposed to be 87% and I did not find that she matched me. I looked up until page 5 which was still at 64% and I found nothing.
I’ve seen my fiancé’s doppelgänger. I couldn’t get over how identical they were. I actually thought he was my fiancé. They weren’t NEARLY identical, they were COMPLETELY identical. The ONLY reason why I realized he wasn’t my fiancé was he doesn’t own the clothes the guy was wearing.
Your brain is breed for pattern matching and finding similarities. Even if they arent that similar you will attempt to find things that are similar. These people in the video arent that similar but your brain is trying to remember them so you break it down to an approximation and you then feel that the approximations are similar. This is further reinforced by the people in the videos by using makeup, clothing and accessories to further the illusion. You have been played and instead of thinking about it you attempted to further the ruse and you looked for more reasons to be fooled. smh
theres more to this story you sick person you
@@dannybadio2176 lmao what
@@thomgizziz okay sure because you were there lmao never mind the amount of people even in BOTH of our families who thought it was him. But obviously you know more than me about all of this, including the experience I had myself. So why don't you tell me more about what actually happened? Hmm?
@@raizelcortez3219 lol you tell us the full story - you had a three some with both dopplegangers. It was a dopple ganger.
I came across a gentleman at a grocery store that looked almost identical to my brother that had passed away 13 years ago. He even had the same first name! We sparked up a conversation, took selfies and after looking at the pics we noticed our lower jaws and mouths were extremely similar as well.
thats beautiful :)
Great story, heru!
id love to see an actual tv series where people meet their doppelgangers, how fun would that be???
they meet them and then what?
They've already made a story like that, it's called 'The Prince and The Pauper.' :-) There's a Disney version with Mickey Mouse.
About a dozen people said there was a woman who closely resembled me and after a few years I met the woman and instantly knew she was the one they afte talking about except U didn't think we looked that much ike even though we were our hair the same way. She told me people had called her my name many times.
I was very glad she was pleasant person so she did not damage my reputation!
I guess she moved away
I only.met her once.
The resources needed to do this regularly for a production would be on par with a major government funded intelligence agency.
I've seen my parents doppelgangers but not just theirs but I have also seen my maternal aunts my mom's big sister my mother is 2 of 6 kids 4 girls 2 boys. With three being half siblings.
When a criminal finds his lookalike, he's a doppelgangster.
Funny☺
Johnny Sparkleface lol
Underrated comment that is so criminal 😅
Door that way, punner!👉
ROFLMAO
I used to work with a guy that looked just like me. From about 50 yards, even I thought I was looking in a mirror. People who didnt see me everyday thought he was me. he loved it, since he was new. He started telling people he was my little brother as a joke and years later, this lady asked me how my brother was doing, but she meant him. I had to tell her, that was just a gag, we weren't related. She thought I was putting her on.
Back in high school someone noticed there were a lot of girls that looked alike. So a contest was held to see how many doppelgangers could be found. The winners found 9 girls that were so alike it was virtually impossible to tell them apart!
Fancy seeing you here 😁
Where is the city this high school is in?
Did they all look like the local milkman?!?! 🤣
I have a doppelganger out there somewhere. A co-worker kept staring at me and seemed to be scared out of his wits. After about 5 interactions like this with him he finally asked my name. I told him and he explained to me I looked just like his ex wife who was a psychopath and stalker and he has had to go incognito and move from state to state to avoid her.😱 Bless this poor man's heart!!! I tried to avoid him seeing me because I didn't want to be his walking nighmare.
Roflmao omg thats funny and sad at the same time 😂😭
I kinda wish he'd showed you a picture, but then again, it might've been creepy to see it!
Ha ha...how funny. This is a good story
That's literally hilarious 😂. He thought you had found him 🤣🤣
@@jadesmith7983 🤣😹
my husband and I moved to a new village last year, and a guy from the neighborhood befriended my husband. Soon enough, the guy said his wife looked exactly like me. I took it as a compliment, until he brought her one day and me and her looked so alike that I couldn't stop smiling. We started conversing from the moment she entered the door until she left later that night. It was like we were long lost friends! Even more amazing, her and I have a lot of the same mannerisms. We are good friends now.
Does everybody think you are sisters?
I take it that you guys are swingers.
I don't judge. I join in 😜
@@stevenspitzer3829 Yes! Everybody. We were at a barbecue lately and lots of her family and friends kept taking me for her.
So happy for you!
That's amazing. Omgs💕🌺
Mine was from a rival school across town, unfortunately he was the older of the Westside school shooters in Arkansas. I had relatives calling my family when the pictures of him hit the news thinking it was me. I even worked with his brother a few years later during high-school. He just stopped and was speechless upon seeking me, knowing the fact his brother was incarcerated at the time. Super weird situation
Wow, 😳
I had a doppelganger in elementary school. He was a year ahead of me, but we not only looked identical, we had the same first name. We never talked. There was a weird tension between us.
I love how well the two old guys get along, laughing together like they've been best friends since they were ten. 😊
And their lady's too..😃😃👵👵
What a sweet precious bunch of friendship & happyness.
Why ten? Why not 5?
Agreed - the blonds look more like sisters, maybe. The brunette, Niamh, and her 3 doppelgängers are eerily close.
@100% Real Woman 4 The Throw the Bum Out Party! the original 1 has gone blonde and hair shorter i wonder if she did that specially or just for a change
The blondes seem to look a like due to make up as one has smaller features
What's weird I think more are out there bc I swear I have seen her before around my town!
@@rs3007 maybe that's because she resembles the actress Emma Stone a little?
I've already watched these Twin Strangers videos a thousand times and it never gets old. I just love it.
Me too Chris I'm adopted so I don't know what I look like I look in the mirror and I see one thing... others see different
I think this happened to my mom and considering she’s a twin and her twin looks nothing like her plus the woman living in the same area caused my mom to have some real questions. She had several weird experiences with people thinking she was someone else but the weirdest was when I was in the hospital as a teen and my mom who is a nurse but not at that hospital had a few people wave then someone came up and started talking to her saying they thought she wasn’t working today. She explained she was a nurse but not the one they thought and they looked at her like she was crazy. I was mad she didn’t ask more questions but she was more worried about me being sick. Like I said her and her twin couldn’t be more different physically and in every other way plus her twin looks nothing like the rest of us so she was kinda convinced for awhile there may have been a switch at the hospital (in the 50s) but years later I had a ancestry test done and my cousin came up as my cousin so I told her it must’ve been a doppelgänger. 🤷🏼♀️
Jesus loves you.
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

I would love to see younger photographs of Neal and John over the years to see if it was a livelong resemblance or more an older age resemblance.
I would venture a guess that it became apparent in their elder years
Interesting that they never addressed this primary question…
Hey ... I just posted a similar comment before I saw this.
yeah and if they''ve always worn the same clothes. /s
Just looking at all the others as young ppl looking so much alike, I’d guess in their younger days that they did too
I love how these two older couples have come together as family and friends. This is cool.
i’m a identical triplet, me and my sisters met a girl at camp once who looked a lot like us
I have a photo of my dad at 16. He looked just like my son at 16! It was wonderful to see the connection even though it was genetic! 💕
My doppelgänger probably living my best life 😅😩
Elin Winblad fr 😭😭😭
I think your talking about an alternate earth? Think about it? There you are probably with someone you got out of your life long ago? Lol
The Prince and the Pauper
IKR 😂 😂 that’s exactly what I was thinking about mine 😂
Elin Winblad she live in Africa lol
And this is what scares me about facial recognition technology
Really? Of all things, you're afraid of finding your doppelganger
No, Im afraid my doppelganger will commit some terrible crime then an hour later FBI,CIA and secret servive storm my house and here I am saying "well it must of been a doppelganger" just to watch all those men with badges smirk and say "tell me another". 🤣
I looked so identical to my twin sister , that we used to trade places on several occasions throughout our youth through young adulthood .
Yep, I agree. The technology we have today 'thinks' it's accounted for variances to w/in .01%. So, what happens to the 1% error margin when the machine makes a 99% 'hit' on the WRONG person? Are those machines still considered accurate, then 🤔.
Denise Eggert You’re actually Twins so that doesn’t count... this is about nonrelated people NOT twins.
I've had this experience! I was volunteering in a neighboring county and everyone seemed to know me. Everyone seemed to love (the other) me. My supervisor, who was a bit standoff-ish, came to me around noon and said that he was sorry that he didn't greet me but he was confused and trying to figure out if I was okay, because he was my best friend and something seemed off when I came in and he finally realized that I wasn't that best friend and so he had to process it.
I saw my doppelgänger at Disney World. We didn’t look as close as those in the video, but very similar. We sat next to each other in a show. We were the same age, very similar features, same body shapes, same blonde hair, we dressed similarly, and both love Disney. Not only that, we came with our mothers, who were both on scooters. Too bad we live in different states because we probably could have become good friends. (She also had a charming personality just like me. Ha ha)
The locals probably thought John is cheating on his wife haha
LOL true!
Lol
My partner has one and his hairdresser asked why he saw him going out with another woman when he knows he has kids at home turns out it was someone else who we now know and they look like twins
Bhahahahah,!!!!you're right, I bet they did,!!!
lol
The worst part is seeing the doppleganger of a friend that has passed away
Wiccan Chickens Homestead - That would be jarring, no doubt.
I’ve met a doctor who looked like a younger version of my late dad. It was amusing at the time, so sad later.... dang, I’m tearing up writing this :*(
Or the best
@@KarenScraps il get sick each week just to see him
Or fiance 😢
I never ran into anyone that looks like me. I have had others claim I look like someone else.
What I have found is my personality double. He's a man and we both are so much a lot like we do/say the some things at the same time not knowing the other one is thinking it.
It was such a surreal experience.
Pretty cool!
My best friend died of cancer at 29. Her ex-boyfriend married a woman that looked like her twin (I guess he has a type). What's crazy is that before they got married and my bf was still alive, his wife said strangers kept coming up to her and calling her by my best friend's name. When she came to my best friend's funeral people were telling her they were sorry for her lost because they assumed she must be my best friend's twin sister. We eventually became friends and our daughters are best friends.
The two elder men are so sweet. Remind me of a pair of cheeky grandpa’s.
They must be so much fun to be around 😂
Yes, they're s charming. :)
Let's see Neil and Johns pics when they were younger.......
Good point
Ah! Yes! That would have been a bit more interesting, or even show their parents! Good thinking.
@@Mspandaninja88 or their 2 sons that play the same instrument
was just thinking that haha
you can see their younger pictures, like wedding pictures in another documentary - they do look alike!
I recall at least three times in my life when I was in a store or other public place, and a complete stranger came up and began talking to me like they knew me. I would respond in some way to be polite, and then I could see their face change a bit as they realized I was not who they thought I was. We always left each other on good terms, usually laughing about it. I'm still waiting to actually meet my "twin".
I met two and the third looked at me like he was going crazy. 🤪
Twice since moving to GA a few months ago. It takes you aback, no?
No issues since I took out my weave. 👍🏾
This happens to me all the time in different cities and different states lol
Same in my town. My best friend though that I had walked into a church class one day. It was not me. I still have not ran into her in over 30 years. Others believe they have seen me at times too then Realize it is not me. Lol. I would love to see her.
I wrestled in college and at tournaments people would approach me and ask why I transferred schools to compete. When I told them I didn't transfer they looked perplexed. Turns out, an athlete one year older than me competing another college in the same state was my doppelganger. When I first saw it even threw me for a loop. I think this is more common than we know.
I grew up with my doppelganger. We went to the same primary school, took dance classes together, and even piano with the same teacher. Our mothers worked in hospitals across the street from one another, and our fathers, on the same military base. We were each one of three siblings. When it came time to choose a highschool in our county, our parents decided to put us in the same one. We ended up being best friends. Most likely because of our circumstances more than anything but who knows. People constantly got us mixed up. Some swore they couldn't tell us apart for nearly 18 years of my life. Some people to this day still ask me if I'm me or her when they see me. It's extremely weird, but it's kinda cool to feel like you grew up as a twin without having the actual struggles of a twin.
😍
It makes me think God has a terrific sense of humor.
@@sharonhaynes5113 that He does lol
Have you considered a DNA test?
@@gailhall6283 somebody that had a NDE and went to heaven said that God got a lot of sense of humor and love to make jokes
A girl in South Africa was told by her school friends that she had a doppelganger in the school. Long story short, it was her sister who had been stolen from a maternity ward when she was about two days old. A tragic story to be honest. No happy ending for the stolen baby. 😢😢
🆘👉🏼They are doing this, sometimes one is a cyborg. Cloning is going on and I suggest you read a book called “The body snatches,” written by Susan Reed.
True story of a women who met a guy who was a shapeshifter. Amazon you can get it or look it up. It will wake you up of why there are some crazy humans out their, but they are NOT HUMAN. I saw a person and behind her eye I saw a machine eye. This shocked me to bits!
Why no happy ending?
Now she can search for her twin and biological family.
@@lovetruth5733 there are people who used to be sighted, and lost their vision, who are now being fitted with 'cyborg eyes' which help them see shadows and shapes. You possibly saw that 'machine' in someone's eye. Be happy for them, not afraid.
@@lovetruth5733 just because this woman says she met a shape shifting Alien lizzard does not mean we should crazy
@@lovetruth5733 I say this from the bottom of my heart, please get some professional help. There’s therapy and meds that help with paranoia.
I was at a party once and a whole group of people thought I was their friend and couldn't believe I wasn't her. It was weird to think someone looks that much like me because I have a odd look.
Often people are not awake/ aware / conscious enough to really differentiate.
...They are reminded of something / someone and quickly apply templates - it works faster and is easier than
really looking closely.
Expectations or fears come into play and filter/ colour perception...
@@mellifergold On the other hand many miss similarities in faces that are evident when you looked as each feature.
@@carol2132 ...and it ' s the same phenomenon : having your own preconceptions on top of what is really there...
I went to a wedding once were there were two doppelgangers. They had never met before but they were so alike that they could have been identical twins. Everything was the same, even details such as earlobes, small wrinkles and even body posture. They posed for pictures and everyone there was astonished. Had it been me I would have insisted on a DNA test.
John and Neil are fun to watch with their sense of fun and humor. I'm happy for them as it's like finding a long, lost brother.
They look absolutely adorable together. They're so lucky to find a twin as well as a good friend.
They remind me of the doctors in the movie Multiplicity (with Micheal Keaton). Except in the movie they were clones.
right! so cool
Wouldn't this make a fun ongoing show? Like maybe 3-6 different people could find their doppelganger throughout the show.
I would watch it
Violet Joy I agree that would be an awesome show omg girl that was a really good idea I would watch it most definitely
@@ChicagoLove I prefer reality TV shows (real people, not Hollywood drama type). I wouldn't mind volunteering to go first. Lol
Twin Stranger has found some people who look a lot alike. Anything similar is escaping me at the moment...
Violet Joy Do you mind me asking is your Surname Joy and not your Christian name 😊
Years ago I was in a mall store and a man came up to me and hugged me. He was excited to see me, asked me when I returned to town! I HAD just returned to town, moved back home, and was trying hard to remember this man. After speaking to this man a few more minutes I found out I have a non biological identical twin somewhere.
This happened to me again a couple of years later in the exact same city.
There has to be a common ancestor from a thousand years ago.
old people are freaking precious, i can't take it
This would explain why some people are convinced they've seen Elvis since he died. Maybe it's his doppelganger.
One day out of curiosity I googled Elvis sightings. I realized that most of the people said they saw him around the same place in southeastern Canada (I think it was Prince Edward island or somewhere around there?) while vacationing. I think he just has a doppelganger who lives there.
lmao
@@kristinh2871 When my dad was younger I always thought he looked a bit like Clint Eastwood. We live in England.
🤣🤣🤣
God knows there are enough impersonators, so I completely agree with you!
In a strange town I walked into a pub. A group of men waved me over, one summoned: "Randy, we've been saving a seat for you." My name is not Randy. So, I sat down next to the one who spoke to me without saying a word, I smiled and nodded at the group figuring that "Randy" would be along soon and that I was in for some fun.
One of the men was in the middle of a story when in walks "Randy", an exact doppelganger of me. In shock I turned my head away quickly so that the real Randy wouldn't notice me as he pulled up a chair. Silence struck the group as a I turned and faced them. My doppleganger was speechless. One of the men asked: "Will the real Randy please stand up." Of course, I stood up, but then sat down. Another man said: "Randy, I didn't know that you had a twin brother." The doppleganger said, "I don't know this man." That's when I laughed, broke my silence, and introduced myself. Randy and I looked so much alike that we immediately started comparing notes and soon realized that there was no way that we were related, and yet we were both the same age, build, height, skeletal size, coloring, and both of us have piercing blue eyes. The resemblance was amazing.
We live in different parts of the world, so the chances of our paths crossing again are not likely. Still, it's fun to know that there is more than one copy of me circulating.
This is a cool story ^_^
Loved this 💜
That is amazing!
I sure do wish that I could have been a fly on the wall to see that happen to you and Randy.
What an zmazing story. I hope you took some pictures with him.
In my teens and early twenties I got stopped, called, and waved at multiple times by people calling me Sandra. Apparently I looked so much like her that one lady once got miffed that I (to her) avoided her because she and this Sandra were following the same course at night school. She was stunned when I told her my name to find out I was a totally different person. The biggest incident was when somebody pulled me aside and started telling me something about another person I did not know at all, but was a mutual acquaintance of this person and "Sandra". I had to stop her in the middle of the story to tell her I had no clue who she was talking about. I then asked her if she thought I was Sandra and bingo: yes, she, too, was a person who mistook me for her. This all stopped when I was in my late twenties/early thirties, so this Sandra may have moved away or our looks/style changed so much that we no longer looked alike.
Wonderful to see a special friendship, apparently heaven-sent.
John and Neill are almost identical in the face and mannerisms, but not in body or size. Niamh and her doppelgängers were very similar in face and body and coloring. The two blonde girls didn't look at all alike. I think perception has a lot to do with it.
Yea Shannon and Sarah didn’t look alike at all. I don’t know what they were smoking with that one
I agree those two blondes don't look alike at all.
I agree
Ha! Was thinking the same thing! They do NOT look alike. Face is completely different. Brow bone, eye size, forehead, all different. The only thing similar is the hair. Talk about poor facial recognition. 😅
so they dressed alike for nothing? lol
The blonde chicks don't look even the tiniest bit alike.
Was looking for this comment to make sure it wasn't just me
haha was funny when they popped up
So true ! one of them actually looked intelligent.
That's what I was about to write. The only similarity is the blond hair.
They look a little bit alike, but I definitely didn't think they were similar enough to one another to be part of a doppelganger study. Glad it wasn't just me
I grew up across the creek from my doppelgänger. We looked so much alike that from a distance our parents would confuse. Once she was grounded and her father saw me playing outside and was walking toward me with that father walk that means “Oh, you are in trouble now!” I immediately started yelling, Mr. Xxxx! I’m Beth! “
He replied, “Well, so you are! Have fun and be careful on your bike.”
This subject is so utterly fascinating!!!
Am I the only one who doesn't think the blond girls look alike? 🤔
They can pass as relatives, maybe fraternal twins, but definitely not doppelgangers.
I agree.
Me too agree the blonds don't look alike.
same! I came to the comments to see if anyone said it.
Maybe the guy in the show wanted to ask one of them for a date
Blonde girls look completely different imo
the old gentlemen are too darn cute!! 😂
Jeta-Maria Swanepoel lol 🤣🤣🤣
They realy are!
so cute
Sorry you are too late, they are both married.
I don't know why the others look the same, but the reason why Obama and his look alike look the same, is because they're both Indonesian....
The worst thing that happened to me when I was young a new family moved into area and their son looked just like me. I was reserved and he was in trouble all the time.
I was getting blamed for things he did, he was getting credit for my good deeds.
I saw my doppleganger when I was about 8 or 9 in a grocery store; it was the weirdest thing ever. We even had our hair the same way. It happened so fast, I didn't get a chance to point her out to my mom. I sometimes wonder about her, and I've never seen her again. I have no idea if she even saw me.
I have been told by hundreds of strangers that they have seen me before. I want to try and find my doppelgängers
Ikr, I probably have one in every town. I always look like someone's relative or an acquaintance
I also always get told I look familiar to people. I just thought maybe I have Plain Jane features that aren’t unique so I look like anyone.
Remy O'donnell I get this too, since I was young. They always say where do I know you from? You look so familiar ....and I’ve never seen them before
Nooo not me..Red Rum is long gone lol😁
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve been told this I’d be rich
That’s amazing those two gentlemen look so identical their mannerisms are identical and they share the same lifestyle
They look like twins
Fascinating
Those 2 older gentlemen are A-mazing.
What a trip. Life is strange.
I thought they would find out they were related in the end.
I like how they hug each other and act like they're related, even if they aren't.
Absolutely fascinating
This takes on a whole new meaning when you think about people talking about finding themselves 😊
😂😂😂😂
😜
🤣🤣🤣
😅😩🤣
Holy smokes you have my name
It's quite fascinating, how they can not only look alike, but similarly to twins separated at birth they develop similar mannerisms and even similar lifestyles. It's really cool.
John and Neil are the cutest😂 They even had the best story about how Neil found John, what a fantastic pair, I hope their friendship grows
The similarity of the 2nd pair is just amazing
When I was a student I was walking into the city centre and was suddenly carried off my feet by two big guys, one under each armpit, I'm only a small guy. They were good heartedly laughing and looking at me, after a few hundred metres we'd reached the centre, one said 'I don't think it's him!" What could I say but "Thanks for the lift"
:) to that's the coolest story
Ha ha! Great story!
Too funny!🤣🤣🤣
Rather terrifying!
I’d be terrified until they put me down, but it’s definitely something you can look back on and laugh at.
I actually went to high school with my doppelgänger. She was my geometry teacher’s daughter. We both even had a similar birthmark on the right side of our neck. It’s mostly invisible until we are either really cold or really hot. We both played volleyball and were in the theater department. Both passionate about art and science.
We didn’t really notice how identical we were until there was a yearbook photo of the two of us side by side. The photographer had to ask us who was who for the caption on it. It was my junior year and her freshman. It was insane!
What if you all shared a parent
Did you both have DNA tests? You should. Because you are likely actually twins.
@@Chopan8809 That is very likely.
Are you still acquainted?
@@tatie7604 she was two years younger than me. lol
Scariest part if your doppelganger commits a crime and you get blamed instead
These two are so endearing I love this story
I found my doppelganger a few years ago in college. We did same major actually and had mutual friends. Today we are best friends/twin.
That's so freaking cool
My daughter had a look-alike in high school who also was born on the exact same day and year and month as my daughter. Her mother went to high school with my husband. In another city. One day, I was in a hurry to pick my daughter up at school. I was frustrated to see her walking quickly in the wrong direction...I hop out and start yelling her name. She turned and trotted toward me and said, :Oh, hi Charla’s mom! Charla will be out in a minute!” I was just astounded. They were good friends in high school. Her mother was black and her dad white. I’m white, and my husband black.
Sharon Hutchins so interesting
Even fooled you. I bet they got that constantly
Wow 😳
That's amazing xx
Wow! That first couple have exactly the same eyes and they both laughed the same way! Wow!!!
Loved this
My Mom met her doppelganger when she was young and was driving around in Canada on her vacation. she had stopped someplace and was standing or walking outside a restaurant, and the manager came out and yelled at her to get inside and get to work! 😂
She was telling him he had her mixed up with somebody else. And that's when the young lady that worked there came along. Mom said it was like looking in a mirror.
So did your mom go inside and work or nah
LOL 😂
I hope your mom told him he better comp the ENTIRE MEAL 🙂
The blondes are not really alike in my opinion
And they have loads of makeup on. It seems like it would be much more believable if they were totally clean.
I agree
Same
One just weighs more
It was driving me crazy, I wouldn't even mistake them from a distance.
I never met my doppelganger, but his friend mistook me for him for about 2 minutes, until he realized I was from the other side of the world. We then had a good chat for about ten minutes before I had to go... I'm Swedish and apparently have a doppelganger somewhere in New Zealand..
I met mine in 1988. My friends tracked me down and dragged me to a party. They said there was a guy I had to meet. We looked like identical twins.
The blondes don’t look alike at all ?!?
The three brunettes were amazing 😱
People always say I look like someone they know, but I’ve never found my doppelgänger.
God me too.
I wonder if there are apps for finding !!! I must go look now ✌
This video made me happy, thank you!
and these are just the ones that found eachother. Imagine all the ones who will never get found out and maybe even have an entire doppelganger family.
It’s adorable how close they sit next to each other on the couch, John and Neil
I found my doppelgänger when I searched my mother’s name on Facebook and up came my doppelgänger with my mother’s name! I’m betting that coincidence is very rare indeed!!
These two guys, they have a twin like connection, it’s more than the super alike appearance, very sweet!
The lady with three dapogangers, that was wild! They all three looked alike.
I personally don’t think the two blonde girls look alike
I was so upset that I couldn't see the similarity 😭
yup
Nothing at all!!
I was so confused as to why people thought they did
Agreed
I ran into my doppelganger in the streets when i was 20, we just froze and stared at each other for a few mins! I think we were both freaked up and just walked on swiftly and silently the other direction! I wish i had said something, think of all the pranks we could have played lols!
It wasn’t your doppelgänger. It was you, from the future.
@@d4ever649 the thought of that is creepy. Could be true tho😱
happened to me at age 10 - same reaction as yours - looked said nothing
In the Glitch in the Matrix stories, sometimes people meet a doppelganger who is really from a parallel reality. They almost never succeed in talking to each other. I remember one example where a guy at a family dinner in a hotel goes back to the room he and his parents are staying in, in order to get his phone. In the room, he finds his dad sitting on the bed. He says hello, and the dad nods, but basically ignores him. When the son gets back to the dinner, his dad is there, and had never left. So who was the dad on the bed? There is another one that was even creepier. This woman is going to the dentist and tells her employer that she may not come to work after the appointment, depending on how she felt. After the dental appointment, she calls the office and tells her boss that she won't be coming in. Her boss says "But you were just here." She denies it vehemently, and gets so upset that she goes in to the office. Everyone in the office says that she had been there. There was a cctv camera in the office, so they run it back, at her insistence, and THERE SHE IS on camera. She is wearing different clothes than what she had been wearing earlier, but they were all clothes that she actually owned, outside of the shoes, which she had never seen before. Tell me that isn't weird!
Dear Matt, what a fascinating UA-cam episode on doppelgangers. I was so intrigued by the fact that "we" each have a look-a-like somewhere in this fantastic world. Since I was a very young girl, I've wondered if someone in the world looked identical to me and if so, how awesome it would be to meet her. My father told me that his ancestry goes way back to King Ferdinand of Aragon. I will not be surprised if I have/had a distant relative who lives in Spain.
My daughter said she saw my doppelganger last March when we were on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. We weren’t able to see her again. I’m still disappointed than I didn’t run into her
I met my dopple ganger in a post office queue about 10 years ago, the woman in front of me started talking about her family as if she knew me, when things started to get a bit serious and embarrassing I had to stop her and say I wasn't who she thought I was, it took some convincing as she thought I was her daughter in law....how strange was that...
EDIT: imagine all the dopple gangers who shouldn't be in prison....
😳😳😳☠️ THAT IS A , *TERRIFYING* THOUGHT!!
( PRISON)
There are many.
Was just thinking about this, Mistaken Identity and becoming a victim of the LEGAL JUSTICE SYSTEM
Yes, I have often thought of this when someone INNOCENT is pointed out in a police line up and it being said "THAT'S HIM, I"D NEVER FORGET THAT FACE!" ..
Almost happened to my dad, except he didn't have a specific tattoo. So he wasn't arrested.
Awww John and Neil dressing like twins, too freaking cute!!!
So amazing!
We all need more doses of news like this.
The blondes didn’t look alike to me idk, it’s funny how we all process faces a little differently.
Lol you are right. They look nothing similar except for the makeup and color of hair. Not even look like sisters. Idk why they were featured here.
One is heavier than the other.
I thought so too. Like besides hair color and clothes they look nothing alike
I agree!
I think it is interesting how we all process faces differently because to me they do look very alike except for the eyes they are obviously different colors..
I think this is so cool.. I wanna find my double 😅😩😩 I bet she’s funny and cute 😂😂..
The blonde girls dont look alike their face shapes are completely different
Agree. Very pretty, though.
Their face shapes are different, but according to the computed data, there are striking similarities. They could very well pass for fraternal twins.
Thank you! Was thinking that, too. They have similar hair. But one has a rounder face, one has higher cheekbones, one has a stronger jawline. Their eyes aren't the same shape or colour, their eyebrows are different. They're different height and builds. Give them different hair and you'd never think they looked alike.
Agree with you completely.
the min i saw them i thought how in the hell are these girls on this show.. change their hair colors n yes they would not look anything alike what so ever. Super pretty but look complete opposite! I know their measurements could never be the same .. their cheeks eyes mouths foreheads ... even body shapes are different! ♡♡
My Father Passed about 20 years ago, and one day I was in a Hardware store and saw a Man that Looked exactly Like My father. I was completely Stunned.
Doppelganger could be our parallel selves meeting simultaneously
"Hey stranger, you look like me!"
"Wow! You look like me too! Weird!"
"We don't know each other but let's go to the store and buy identical outfits!"
"Okay!"
😂 we've all been there!
😂😂
😂👏🏽
Init?😂
What else are you supposed to do
I once approached a maintenance man at work asking him to help me with a project. He seemed confused and I eventually realized he was a customer! I was so embarrassed and he was a bit offended. Then, the real maintenance man walked in and their jaws dropped. They looked so much alike! Then we learned one was Mexican and the other Russian. They even had the same balding pattern. They had a great laugh, and I was grateful the customer understood my mistake!
Mexicans originally came from Sibera, in Russia.
I saw my doppelgänger when I was 16. I was freaked out because I was young and never knew about this phenomenon. She was an artist just like me, same age, same hair and eyes and even dyed the tips of her hair pink….just like me. I ran away because it scared me. Who ever you are, girl from Manitoba Canada, sorry I got freaked out. Just want to say “Hi, good looking” 😅
I was told and grew up with the belief that everyone has at least 6 people that are identical to you out in the world somewhere.
