I just changed my avatar to a picture of a painting of two men I very much respect and admire. Chang and Eng Bunker were survivors, winners and inspirational. Chang is my g-g grandfather and Eng is my g-g uncle. They are men who overcame what many would call impossible odds to be successful by any definition.

I've heard of the twins before,

it seems incredible that they could each have a relationship and have so many children!

I read a biography of them many years ago. A very interesting life they led. Seemed fulfilled too. Wonder if they still have any decendants left??

This is unbelievable, i just got this question in the FG daily trivia

That is fascinating. I am a twin myself -- identical and mirror-image.

Thanks for sharing

I have cousins who are identical twins. They used to have a lot of fun with it. They do everything they can to look different now though. I don't know how many sets of twins there are in the family but there are more. My grandfather moved west and we don't see much of the east coast relatives.

And the answer is....SIAMESE TWINS:guitarist

I wonder what they would call them today? Siam is now Thailand. Thai Twins maybe.
