Separated as babies in 1972 due to family poverty, the brothers are together again after a chance encounter in a crowded city.

Twin brothers, separated as babies, have been reunited after more than 40 years following a chance encounter in China's Sichuan province.

Thanks for posting this poster of one of the all-time great movies. What a combo: Schwarzenegger and DeVito. Would have been a great national ticket.

They appear to be a little on the “chubby” side, but I don’t see the need to refer to them as “Freaks”.

The Chinese are inscrutable.

one of the all-time great movies.
Surely you jest.

It was about as funny as a child on a crutch.

I saw this happen once...

You beat me to that one. Makes me wish that FR had a ‘Like’ button. :=)

This makes the news, but the millions and millions of aborted babies get no mention.

The one baby policy neans this will not happen again.

I’m confused by the headline. So these twins were at a meeting for Freaks when they were reunited?

[RegulatorCountry]

Must’ve been identical twins, not that there’s anything wrong with that.

[Defiant]

I just thought they all looked alike.....

[RegulatorCountry]

Freaks? Not unless they’re identical twins. Even in China.

Well, not quite. I am pretty sure they were each leveraging the synergies of the gotofreaking.com virtual meeting platform which sparked the serendipity.
