They traveled with P.T. Barnum's circus for many years and were billed as the Siamese Twins, and their fame lent the name to the condition. They married, raised families of <i>10 and 11 children</i> respectively, established separate households (spending alternating nights at each home- hey now), sent multiple sons to fight in the Civil War for the Confederacy (!) and <i>died within three hours of each other</i>. In modern times, they could have been easily separated.<br /><br />The facts are mind boggling to me.SGOTInoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-88946978128872679102010-04-27T16:47:39.201-07:002010-04-27T16:47:39.201-07:00Why bother with hard to find twins, when everyone ...Why bother with hard to find twins, when everyone knows that in America, everyone is born with equal brain power but not physical power!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-3431573675024561392010-04-27T16:36:00.345-07:002010-04-27T16:36:00.345-07:00I'm not sure what this adds to the discussion ...I'm not sure what this adds to the discussion but Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen both look like hookers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-14919689379301963402010-04-27T16:36:00.344-07:002010-04-27T16:36:00.344-07:00John Cunningham said: "He is not a twin, but ...John Cunningham said: "He is not a twin, but Jeremy Irons played identical twins, MDs, in...a truly creepy film..."<br /><br />The real-life twins, Cyril and Stewart Marcus, whose lives inspired the book on which the movie is based, declined and died together in a truly creepy way. <br /><br />What's even more interesting is that there is some evidence they were not identical twins, as is widely presumed, but fraternal twins who enjoyed passing as identicals. Here's a pic of a book with them on the cover, one is in the middle of the top row, the other in the middle of the bottom row. To me, they do indeed look more like fraternal than identical twins.<br /><br /><a rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Evil-Twins-Chilling-Stories-Insanity/dp/0312968892</a>Kylienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-66720937409704187512010-04-27T16:27:02.550-07:002010-04-27T16:27:02.550-07:00My favorite movie about twins would probably be &q...My favorite movie about twins would probably be "Double Impact" where Jean Claude Van Damme finally meets his match - himself.<br /><br />Leonardo Dicaprio is only the latest twin to place his brother in a Iron Mask.<br /><br />More recently "The Prestige" had both of leading stars play twins.<br /><br />That's real reason why there are so few adult twin actors.
