I didn't even know this was possible. It reminded me of what's his name in Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy.

Weird. I wonder if they each control their half, or if one brain controls the whole body.

- - e r i k - - · Jul 1, 2007, 10:30 PM

By observing them they obviously control a half each. You can see Britney picking her nose at one stage.

In short, conjoined twins are always two people sharing one body with varying degrees of shared organs. Never "one girl with two heads".

Buckaroo · Jul 1, 2007, 10:31 PM

No, one controls the left and one the right.

Buckaroo · Jul 1, 2007, 10:31 PM

They are on TLC right now.

OldManMac · Jul 1, 2007, 11:09 PM

I caught the last 20 minutes; what an amazing story!

lpkmckenna · Jul 1, 2007, 11:59 PM

Great story. It's amazing how they drive a car together.

Buckaroo · Jul 2, 2007, 12:05 AM

Now TLC has a story about this little tiny girl who is 3 years old. She is very little.

JoshuaZ · Jul 2, 2007, 01:06 AM

Very interesting. I remember that at Boy Scout camp we found a turtle with two heads. The little dude was fully functional, but occasionally the heads fought over food.

if you were alone on a deserted island, and you had to choose a femaie companion between a mermaid (human but below the waist fish) and the opposite of that (human legs but above the waist fish), what would be your choice?

Not a real tough one for me... being able to talk with another person, seeing lovely breasts all of the time (don't all mermaids have great breasts?), and possibly get some hand/mouth action; OR get some real sex, but no communication (unless she knew sign language with her toes) and nothing else (except maybe hairly legs... I don't think flipper can use a razor). I would have to go with option 1, a mermaid.

That GIF is awesome. Toyotally.

Let's see: oral sex with a mermaid or vaginal sex with a fish. Gee, how will I ever decide?

Luca Rescigno · Jul 3, 2007, 08:42 PM

I've seen pictures of a girl with two heads. Not the same thing. It was a little girl with a weird malformed second head growing out of her "main" head. The second head didn't do anything - it wasn't another person, it was just a growth.

thats whats up

So if the girls get a ticket driving, who gets the ticket?

design219 · Jul 5, 2007, 09:27 PM

What weirds me out is to think someday when they are old (at least I hope they will be old), it might happen that one of them will die, and the other will have to deal with the ramifications. But not for long.

I believe they discussed this and decided that most likely the one that controlled the gas pedal and brake.

The night that I started this thread, was the first time I have ever seen this. I have seen others where they were connected and they tried to separate, but this was too odd. I was shocked, and felt sorry for the girls. They have adapted to this situation.

I assume one controls the left leg and the other controls the right leg. I have no idea how they are able to walk.

I imagine it comes quite naturally to adapt your every movement to another quite instinctively when you have been connected since birth. The human brain is a wonderful instrument.

jjahshik32 · Jul 5, 2007, 11:17 PM

about that mermaid top or bottom thing, I would choose the fish head on top and women body on bottom because after I *uck it I'll just kill it and eat the top half to survive. =D

Buckaroo · Jul 5, 2007, 11:50 PM

In order to make marriage possible, I would think that they would have to find someone that would accept them both. A special law might have to be written so that the guy would not be arrested for bigamy.

You have to wonder what dating will be like for them. They are probably going to be beautiful women when they grow up.

Not unless they were worried that someone would actually try to enforce it.

What difference would it make? I think for legal purposes it's simplest to treat them as a single person. They only have a single body, after all. They're only going to be able to have one job, one house, one car, &c.

Of course then you only can collect half the taxes...

shifuimam · Jul 6, 2007, 10:00 AM

Is TLC going to rerun that special?

I don't have cable, but the boyfriend does, and I can make him TiVo it...

Time for that wedding, methinks.

Dakarʒ · Jul 6, 2007, 10:15 AM

I picked up on that too, Doofy, I just couldn't think of something entertaining to say.

nonhuman · Jul 6, 2007, 10:18 AM

Oh, and it's Zaphod Beeblebrox.

Neither could I. Which is why I typed what I typed.

Good enough for me.
