What were the names of the conjoined twin brothers whose fame propelled the expression "Siamese twins"?
Correct answer: Chang and Eng Bunker
I am not a number.
What a complex life they must have had. Imagine when they had a falling out, no way of getting space from each other. Without wanting to be crude, procreating wouldn't have been private.
And then death of the first (after being partially paralysed by a stroke) inevitably leading to the death of the second.
Modern doctors think separation would have been relatively safe.

Some people, whom "society" deems as different from the "Norm", otherwise known as sideshow "Freaks" have actually embraced the term "Freak". Personally I think we are all part "Freak" in one aspect or another in our lives. So let us all fly our Freak Flag high & proud.

I saw Siamese twins in a sideshow at a fair in London ON in the sixties. Will never forget them.

Incredible how they overcame so many difficulties while performing daily tasks.
Things we take for granted must have been extremely difficult.

RICK-N-BACHER, yes you read it correctly, 21 children between them.
