Karen Branigan, Geaney’s first “twin stranger,” lived only a few miles away from her in Ireland.

Who's your daddy?

Both named William West, but completely unrelated. Not long after they were confused at Leavenworth prison, law enforcement began using fingerprints for identification.

I had a encounter with a doppleganger years ago in New york city. I grew up there and one day I was driving in Manhattan and came to a stop light and saw my brother crossing the street maybe 10 feet away, and I started calling his name and he looked at me like I was crazy. He looked JUST like him and I kept saying “George George, where are you going?” The light turned green and I couldn’t get out of the car being that it was Manhattan all the other cars would go crazy and blow their horn so I drove off thinking he was ticked off at me. So later on I called him up, IT WASN’T HIM!!! Not only wasn’t it him, it seems one of his friends encountered this guy as well and thought the same thing. I’m his brother and he fooled even me, it was so crazy, he looked JUST like him, the guy must have thought I was a freakin nut. Good thing I didn’t get out of the car and confront him!

Wow the resemblance between these two are remarkable:

My brother, at one time of his life, bore a remarkable resemblance to Lech Walesa of Poland. It didn’t last, because of weight changes, and different aging on the two men.

I was watching TNN many years ago, when a pedal steel player was shown onscreen. He looked eggs-ackly like me! I taped the show when it was repeated. I showed the tape to friends, and they all asked me “When did you play on TNN?” And yup, I’m a pedal steel player!

I have had two celebrity dopplegangers in my lifetime. When I was in my thirties, people who saw me thought I was David Duchovny, although I am far taller than he is. In my late forties, I started being mistaken for Red Sox Manager Terry Francona.

Given the millions and millions of faces out there, everyone is bound to have a twin somewhere.

I think I’m a clone now
Another one of me’s always hangin’ around
I think I’m a clone now
‘Cause every chromosome is a hand-me-down

I’ve had the same experience. In a grocery store I saw someone who I swore was my older brother. Only when I got very close did I realize he wasn’t my brother. My wife has had a similar experience of seeing someone who was a dead ringer for her brother.

I think it was in fifth grade, a new kid joined the class. Wavy brown hair, glasses, yep, he looked exactly like me. I mean mirror image. It was pretty weird.

I think they moved away a couple years later.

[Does so]

Not the same thing, but a gal in a London airport waiting room had me staring and believing that she was a friend from 15 years before—even wearing her favorite hat. It took me a while before I realized she should have aged some—and that she should have recognized me!
