Man finds his doppelganger sitting in his seat on a flight
BBC ^ | October 30, 2015 | Sum Gai

He said: "There was a dude already on my seat. When the guy looked up, I thought: 'He looks like me'."

But the pair were later to encounter a further coincidence when they checked into the same hotel in Galway.

Mr Douglas added: "Later that night, I went to the pub and again, there was my twin. Total weirdness. We had a laugh and a pint."

I have a picture taken around 1905 of my maternal grandfather and grandmother taken together at a
carnival photo ‘booth.’ My grandfather as a twenty something was a dead ringer for me. And my grandmother
looked startlingly like a girl I was engaged to at that age.
When I was young, he always favored me. Maybe he saw himself in his grandson.

There’s a pedal steel guitarist in Nashville that looks eggs ackley like me. What do I do? I’m a pedal steel guitarist! My friends saw this guy on tv, and started calling me about my Nashville gig! My band mates were worried that I was going to quit and move to Nashville! Uncanny!

Better check later to make sure their wives haven’t disappeared.

I’ve seen those “You kill my wife...I’ll kill your wife...and they’ll never catch us.” movies before.

This happened to me.....went to a restaurant & everyone thought I was the waiter who worked there; who was off work that day. People flocked around me. They assured me I looked just like him. I went back again several months later & he had moved on, so I never met him.

I once entered a bar and recognised a fellow and he recognised me (or so we thought). We greeted each other by first name: “It’s so-and-so isn’t it?” “Yes, and you’re so-and-so, aren’t you?” “Yes, that’s right!” We started to converse but after a couple of minutes it become painfully obvious that we had both made a mistake . . . we had both mistaken the other for someone else . . . and yet we both got the other’s first names correct!

Obviously it's some X-files style top secret cloning experiment that was supposed to remain under wraps..

I was driving home and listening to a sports call-in program, carried by WGN in Chicago on SIRIUS. People were calling in, very upset, about the goat’s head that was sent to Cubs owner, Tom Ricketts at Wrigley Field.

Then some guy called in from Indiana and said, “Why are you people so upset ‘cause someone sent a goat’s head to Wrigley Field? Aren’t you Chicagoan’s the same guys that sent a horse’s ass to the White House?”

I had to pull over!!

I saw my daughters doppelganger recently. I thought it was her and was ready to speak when I realized that the woman was several inches taller than my daughter. Same haircut, same color, same face, dressed the same with the same body type. I was speechless!

Afterward I got to thinking about the fact that my daughter is adopted, they may have been related.

“Man finds his doppelganger sitting in his seat on a flight”

“I hate it when that happens to me”

Isn’t there a surgical procedure to reattach those?

That’s funny, Nashville is where my son’s friend lives, and where he ran into his doppelganger too! What is it about Nashville?

Happened to me once. I was making Xeroxes in a copy shop (!) and the machine was right inside of a big window.
Glancing out, I noticed a ginger-haired woman at a bus stop across the street, who could have been my twin. Thought I was imagining it.
The shop manager, who knew me as a regular customer, came over to see what I was gawking at. He agreed, she was my twin.
She was even wearing the same style sunglasses and trenchcoat that I usually wore, although I was dressed differently that day.
It was a twilight-zone moment.

I’ve seen my dop for several years in the downtown district when i am riding the bus to work. Finally , he started riding the same bus as mine last year. I never look at him , but
he does look at me when he gets on or off the bus. We have not talked .....yet , and i will keep it that way.

If “Sapphire” is the wife’s name, the husband’s name has to be George Wilson, of “The Amos and Andy” show.

“There’s two of EVERYONE in there!” — a homeless man in the closing monuments of the movie Big Business ... just before his own lost twin walks out the front door.
