Shannon Lonergan from Tralee met her almost identical twin, Sara in Dublin recently. 

A YOUNG TRALEE student has recently had the very surreal experience of meeting her almost identical twin thanks to the team over at the TwinStrangers.com website.

Shannon Lonergan, a student from here in town signed up the website a while back and received an email from the site telling her that her doppelgänger had been found in 17 year old Swedish girl, Sara.

The video below details the very first meeting between the two with both girls exhibiting slight nerves before the big moment.

“I gave her a hug and then we just stood there like ‘Oh my God, this is so weird’,” said Shannon in the video.

“Our noses, our eyes… we have the exact same ears… lips, expressions, pout, smile… it’s just weird,” she finished.
