Passenger Seated On Plane Next To Stranger Who Looks Exactly Like Him
353Kviews
These two men are not brothers. Thursday evening on the flight from from London to Galway, 32-year-old Neil Douglas was surprised to find a man that looked exactly like him sitting in his seat. The doppelganger, 35-year-old Robert Stirling, had changed seats so that a couple could sit together.
“I asked him to move and when the guy looked up, I thought: “Holy s***, he looks like me” Douglas told Daily Mail. “I later checked into my hotel in Galway to find my doppelganger checking into the same hotel ahead of me…We ended up socialising and quite a few people pointed out that we looked very similar.”

Better have your DNA run...just in case. :)
I guess so or maybe like a separated twin,..... LOL
I was thinking the same exact thing!
they have GOT to be related SOMEHOW....man....crazy......somewhere down the line.....ancestors or something!
i hope they become bros for life :) lol!
one is taller and bigger than the other, but they end up or meet at the same airplane seats and the same hotel??? ....they were going to meet at one point or another without a doubt!
Well they say we all have a double somewhere in the world. Why not meet by chance?
I am sure of it.
This is so epic! Glad you had lagers together! Friends forever!
Un-freakin-believable... What do your mums have to say?
1st picture: very similar looking. 2nd picture: not that similar looking. 3rd picture: 2 completly different people.
When I lived in a neighboring state to my current one, many of my friends, at least 6 of us total, looked exactly alike. We had to start dying our hair different colors and cutting them different lengths for the sake of our parents. Sounds fake that that would happen, especially in such a large quantity, but it even freaked me out when I first met them.
So awesome!
Twin sons of different mothers.... I heard that somewhere.
Delightfully weird.
At least they're of different height.
Wow, that's amazing O_O!!
must be long lost twins
Someone's dad has some explaining to do...
long lost brothers or what??
They say that we, all, have a doppelgänger a somewhere in the world. And since we've all come from the same genetic tree, sooner or later the odds are increased that we'd run into the other. Right? That is if we travel a lot. Interesting. Also, I'd agree on the recommendation to look into the possibility of the DNA connection. Who knows? I like it. Would I know if I'd run into someone who look like me? I don't know.
DNA is an amazing discovery - agree with Roxanne
no no.. he came from the future..
that is so cool !!!!! they'll now be BFF !!!
Cool!
This is AWESOMEEEE!!
Not only did they look alike, but they were seated next to each other AND booked into the same hotel?! Crazy!!!
well but they say if you see your doppelganger you're going to die ;)
Long lost twins :)
This is way too good to be true. Something is afoot here. The Universe is up to something again. :U
That's called hipster...nothing similar about them except the beard and hair colour...
get tested dna
It would be so cool if that happened to me!
I think that's really interesting!
This is a wild and once in a lifetime coincidence
Danius is great at bored panda
This is so insane! Hehe
Its nice to see you smiling on a Ryanair flight
Never knew just red hair and beards make you look completely similar..., not even close
Cute!
I was going to say that add Blake Jacobs and you get triplets, but he did it himself already! http://worldofwonder.net/attack-of-the-doppelgangers-on-halloween/
How fascinating to find your double sitting next to you on a plane!! I wonder if they have the same father... ?
I bet they are distant relatives!
WTF? The one in the right side of pic is looking like me ... few friends confirmed allready.
lolololololo
I would bank they are related but don't know it...better double check that one!!!!!
I think the word doppelganger is used to refer to a lookalike who brings I'll luck!
These guys also look exactly like me! This gets creepier by the moment.
Could be related, lost cousins?
I think you guys are twins
we all have body doubles
...So cool!
Ha awesome! I have a friend Lisa who looks JUST like me! It's great that we all find our own double!!
Well, better go for DNA test....
WE've probably all wanted to have a twin....you almost had one for awhile.
That's amazing! Never split okay? (:
awesome!!! imagine that!!! our dopple is somewhere roaming....
Wow!!!I wish I could meet mine...
I think it is priceless and a SHAME I cannot pin this to MY pinterest . wow ..makes me want to unscribe ;(
Both drinking Guinness as well see!
Somewhere in a parallel universe someone is laughing
You might be twins separated at birth!!
me thinks Mum & Pop have some explaining to do!
Like brothers or cousins, but not identical. One is much heavier built.
Hahahaha :) so funny
I think his dad had a bike..lol
Stephen.E.Sims Good response!
Hilarious!
This is so amazing. Great moment to remeber for a whole life :)

Both have gingery hair and beards, and fair complexions. Otherwise no, they look quite different. Next story: woman sees anther woman with same hat
They both have yellow teeth
Two bearded guys sat next to each other on a plane. The end.
You must be fantastic at parties.
