• Some people believe that running into your doppelganger is a sign of certain doom.
Hopefully that's not the case for these 30 people, because these are 15 cases of people
accidentally running into their doppelgangers – or in some cases, working REALLY hard
to find them.
15 – Jennifer and Ambra • Twin Strangers is a website for actually
helping people find their doppelgangers.
• These two women were matched up within a matter of a few seconds.
• Despite their uncanny appearance, they're 20 years apart in age.
14 – Two redheads • Unlike Jennifer and Ambra, these guys
didn't go out trying to find a lookalike.
• It just sort of worked out that way.
They met at a party, and then posted a picture together on Reddit.
• As much as they look similar in the face, the REAL crazy thing is that they both just
happened to have their hair in the same length and style when they met.
13 – Sophie and Lauren • Sophie Robehmed turned finding her doppelganger
into a personal obsession and social experiment.
• She searched for months using the hashtag #DoYouLookLikeMe, before finding a match with
Lauren Hatchard, a film industry worker.
• Robehmed chronicled much of her search in writing, including some of the other close
matches she found.
Apparently a lot of people thought she looked like Natalie Portman.
12 – Face Swap Twins • There's a perfect way to see if your doppelganger
is a TRUE lookalike.
• Use FaceSwap, and then see if you can tell the pictures apart.
• One of these pictures have been faceswapped, but even the original poster can't remember
which one it is.
• Granted, they might be able to tell if they weren't wearing sunglasses, but still.
11 – Amanda and Meredith • Amanda Fisher accidentally found a woman
on Instagram who looked exactly like her, so she tried to make contact.
• The women looked SO MUCH alike, that when she posted the image on imgur asking for help
tracking the woman down, several people disregarded it, assuming it was actually just two photos
of the same woman.
10 – Heads of Management • Some people have to work really hard to
find their so-called twin strangers.
• These guys?
They just work together, as employee and boss.
• We don't know if they sound as similar as they look, because if they do, there is
definitely some Undercover Boss potential there.
9 – Partygoers • It's hard to say what's more impressive
here.
Is it the similar hair color and style?
• Is it that face that makes them look like a gimmicky tag-team wrestling duo?
• Or is it the fact that two people independently decided to wear red, white and blue plaid
to a party, presumably of their own volition?
• At least the red washout of the photo makes it hard to see those fashion choices
clearly.
8 –90's Twinsies • At a party that appears to have been taking
place in about 1992, these two women found each other sporting basically the exact same
face and hairstyle.
• This immediately spawned a reddit conversation about how one of them is doomed, so they must
fight to the death.
• We don't know whether they actually did that.
Probably not.
7 – Accessorized • Meeting a doppelganger with the same hairstyle
as you or similar clothes is one thing.
• But having the same hair accessories?
• That's an extra touch you just don't see in the “randomly finding people who look
exactly like you” game.
6 – Uncanny • One of these guys was a stand-up comic
doing a gig, when he saw the other one in the audience, and just had to meet him.
• Luckily, the timeline didn't collapse when they touched each other, so they're probably
just guys who look alike, and not the same person from different dimensions.
5 – IKEA Twins • Of all the places to meet somebody, these
guys managed to run into each other at IKEA, proving once again that IKEA really does have
everything.
• It's probably also worth noting that they took this picture in front of a Christmas
display, but the picture was posted on October 22nd.
• IKEA might be jumping the gun on the holiday season just a bit.
4 – Spectacles • At a random pub in Madrid, Spain, these
two guys just happened to be in the same place at the same time.
• Same style of glasses.
Same facial hair pattern.
Both wearing nerdy-looking t-shirts.
• They even have the same signs of male-pattern baldness.
3 –Beard Doubles • The people in this picture look similar,
and that's largely due to the shaved heads and the majestic beards.
• The only thing that's kind of disappointing here is that the beards, while similar in
size and shape, aren't even the same color.
• And they appear to have different textures as well.
The guy on the right seems like his beard would be much courser.
Also, it seems like the guy on the left is trying to be Popeye.
2 – John and Neil • Neil Richardson was a priest who retired
to a small UK town, where he didn't know anybody.
• But when he arrived, he started being greeted by the residents there with a wave
and the words, “Hello, John.”
• Since his name was Neil, he was understandably confused.
But not long after, he found himself face-to-face with John Jemison, who looked exactly like
him and had lived there for years.
• And the similarities didn't end there.
It turned out the men had studied at the same college, both done work as teachers, and had
accounts with the same bank.
1 – Neil and Rob • From the neck up, Neil Thomas Douglas
and Rob Stirling are a perfect match.
They met completely by accident on a flight to Ireland, and decided they have to take
a selfie.
• Of course, the two aren't a PERFECT match.
One sports an English accent, the other Scottish.
• And Rob is much larger in stature than his supposed twin.
But those faces and beards were all their selfie needed to go viral.
