And they also catch up with a couple of former students who share what it's really like to have Abby & Brittany as teachers!

There is NO way you can watch these amazing, beautiful girls and not consistently smile. Their positive attitude is contagious, even through a screen. Get it girls!
I agree!
I agree also 😊😊I smiled the whole way through the video !
Yes! Amazing, beautiful people.
@Happie & Hippie SO true 🥰🥰❤❤🌹🌹
@Happie & Hippie great point! I wholeheartedly agree as well.
As of 2023, they are 33 years old…and still teach at the school they started teaching at, i believe. Awesome women.
❤
I think I read something that they're married now also. Well, technically one of them is married but if you marry one you're marrying them both in this case.
It would be hard not to take a good look because they are so amazing. I think the best part of their story is they are public school teachers. I have been a public school teacher for 30 years and admire anyone who chooses this noble adventure of a profession. I love traveling! It would have been so much fun to go with them. I love their attitude and outlook on life.
These girls are amazing. Yes they are different....but that’s not a bad thing. They are unique and this makes them special. It’s nice to see that their friends are so protective. They seem like really incredible girls with lots of spirit and lots to share with the world.
bad this? oh gosh, why would you ever think of that? I mean they're freaks, that's more than amazing, there's public for it, a lot of people love it. In the past there were the so called freak shows. But they became illegal, now with the internet they're back, and what is the best, they are legal again. Everyone is happy
Thank you Abby and Brittany for allowing us in your lives. And cheers to your best friends!
Every time I see Abby and Britney doing life I'm stunned by their synchronicity , talking almost as one but with their own individual flavour
And the physical coordination when learning to row , this is a next level skill for anyone
So hats off for nailing it in one session
Shout out to Chris with his instant admiration and obvious love for these extraordinary humans
Keep shining Abby and Britney , you are among the most admirable souls I've observed in this lifetime and you give me a little bubble of excitement in my tummy whenever I see an update
On one of the episodes they are riding a Segway and I never thought of how their sense of balance must be so different from ours. They can do literally everything and excel and everything they do but they had trouble riding the Segway. For some reason that shocked me bcuz they are so good at everything physical like biking, running, swimming, etc
To be honest, I would stare. I would try not to, but I've never seen anything like this in real life. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to live like this. So thank you for showing how normal it is for you guys. I'll be following you.
Also, I NEVER try to take photos. How fucking disrepectful. People are disgusting.
People stare because it is new to them, not to be rude, but to see this new thing.
I wouldn’t even look it’s rude
@@chronically_bqueenb So, you never even look at anyone when you're out? You just keep your eyes on the ground?
I've actually seen them several times (we are in the same general community and we have some mutual friends, but I've never actually spoken with them) and it's astonishing because they are very normal and they blend in. In a group, you don't even realize until you take a closer look. They attended the same public pool that I did, and I remember seeing them jump off a diving board, and they looked very normal and seemed to be having fun. They're a few years older than I am, so I've seen them out and about since we were little kids.
@@AS-yz2iz I actually wear a blindfold. It makes driving hard, but it's worth it
The children the twins taught are so sweet!!this is the way we are supposed be teach our children!!
I love Abby and Britt! 🤍🤍
They are both very sweet girls and funny 😊😂
Fr i love them to
Parents did a great job on them, they're the real heroes
I agree
I've been wondering how these two are for years! I'm glad to see they're still doing well
This was about 10 years ago. they both teach school now, i think still at the same school they started at.
They’re married now 🥰
@@robinbrown7953not quite they are 28 here and 34 now
@@rosaliepasqualina3946yeah
Only abi is legally married
schade ich kann kein Englisch , doch diese zwei Frauen sind herrlich , es macht Freude ihre fröhliche art zu sehen !!!!
I laughed so hard when the rowing instructor said "If you die, we're covered for that." What a wonderful wit and sense of humor.
English humour is the best :D The level of dry, even on a river :D
People who work with tourists develop a repertoire of jokes over the years.
I run into these special ladies at least once a year at my local target in Shoreview, MN. They are very special
I am so pleased the girls enjoyed London. I live in London (near Greenwich) and I love it because there are so many interesting places and people from all over the world. They seemed to embrace everything. Hope you'll return one day, Abby and Brittany. If I saw them, I'd be delighted - they just enjoy life to the max and don't seem to dwell on any of the challenges that must occur.
As a disabled person, I love the visibility you both bring to being normal people, doing normal things, despite people assuming you are somehow vastly different from everyone else. I don't get why it is so hard for people to wrap their heads around the day to day normality of my life, and I assume yours, and everyone else who looks 'different' or does things in an atypical way that is normal for us. I really related to the actual issue being different from the assumed issue, in this case, not having a problem with coordination, but just not understanding what the instructions were, and needing a bit more time to get the hang of it. People do the same kinda thing with me, and its so hard to try to make people understand that some of the things they assume I would find hard are easy, and some things they never think about are almost impossible for me.
Anyway, I love the advocacy you two are doing, in just sharing your normal lives
I am DISABLED and regular people FEAR DIFFERENT....most don't know how to cope....or what to say....
@@volpeverde6441 Sadly this is all too true. I wish people had more chance to interact with us, and that we were more visible and included in daily life
They are simply adorable! Their smiles. Expressiveness. How they talk. Just so likable.
The rowing instructor may have been very serious that they get it right, but he was great…he treated them like individuals and like he would have taught any one rowing…
Chris the instructor made me laugh.. the way he is portrayed he seems like an amazing guy... hopefully what we see here is is true. I actually "LOL" at how serious he was and when you guys said "I hope we don't die" and he said "we're covered for that" 😂😂 you are both expert rowers!!
You could see he thought they were great! They worked hard on their rowing technique and he admired that. It looked like a lot of fun.
I love how they speak in stereo!!!
I feel so so so so positive after seeing these girls power pack energy
It’s amazing how they’ve been able to move through life so well adapted and be able to have the same experiences as everyone else. In many ways they are more well off than many people who aren’t conjoined- they still have great mobility, they’ve had access to great education and have been able to travel internationally. I hope they are able to find an arrangement that works out for them with regards to dating and having kids, I do think they’d make excellent mothers and they shouldn’t deny themselves that experience.
I love how they're both two people, and one. They rock.
Abby and Brittany are such a pleasure to watch. They're so wholesome! I love seeing them enjoy their lives!
I just love your beautiful smiles Abby and Brittany! You both have such enthusiasm and energy, and it is infectious, because your stories shows alot of friendships within your circle. You both seem to have an amazing family that loves and supports you as well. Life is too short not to live it to the fullest, and you beautiful ladies are doing just that! I believe your stories gives hope to those that want to give up on life. You both truly enlighten my spirit! Keep up the enthusiasm and keep dreaming big and fulfill your dreams. God bless!🤗
Hi 👋 how are you doing?
They are the cutest young ladies! Glad you both had such a great time
Abby and Brittany are truly remarkable individuals, and I find them quite fascinating! It must be an incredible experience to live such a unique life with a conjoined body. I sincerely hope that they continue to find fulfillment and happiness in their journey. It's evident that they are navigating life remarkably well and making the most out of every opportunity. Their positive outlook and determination are truly inspiring.
ROM AUGUSTINE here I'd like to say that my dad Joel Augustine passed away November 30 2022 but came across your channel I'd seen U in the earlier day's I'm glad that your letting people know about your selves and getting that situation across where others will be still asking questions about U eh I'm a proud Born Canadian 🇨🇦
Anyways I enjoy watching how U adapt to the environment you adapt too stay strong in & threw out your lives ladies ok
Sorry for your loss. May his memory be eternal.
I love the personalities of these two. Glad they have good friends around them
Ive followed yall since your first documentary! So excited to see yall have adventures!
Thier coordination to do everyday things is amazing.
14:06 they are practically telepathic when in fear 😂😂😂
Wow, remember when I first saw them as young girls. They've grown up to be two strong individual women! Awesome ladies!!
Nope, two degrees two paychecks! There are plenty of team teaching positions.
2 sets of eyes and two intelligent brains deserve two paychecks! Period ❤
I loved your London visit. Thank you for sharing.
They are love acceptance and cuteness times two!!!! How sweet they are!!! Living life to the max. Love you so much!!!❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I started watching the video and saw a glimpse of you rowing at the start - thought wow, looks just like my old home town, then told myself to stop imagining other places look like Maidenhead. 😄😄 I've seen videos of you ladies before, so glad to see you visit Maidenhead, thank you!
They share the same body and one is warm and the other is freezing. That's so amazing!
I literally was smiling and laughing through the entire video! I just love these young ladies!🥰
Hi,.. They are such an inspiration. 2 working together as one. Thank God that they both have positive mindset's.
Beautiful minds
They are absolutely incredible. It amazes me how they occasionally say the exact same thing at the same time.
That man is so sweet. He is like the serious and let’s get this right! And when you do so he is pleased ❤
Enjoyed watching this UK trip!
The twins have such amazing friends!!
That statement that they'll never get a second change to travel abroad for 10 days in their whole lives, was weird though (at 2:39)
Glad you enjoyed London.
You have a great family and friends and you guys are really something.
I love your positivity.
Sending my very best hopes and wishes for you for now and in the future.
Corinne from the UK.🙏❤️
They are surrounded by the best people that love them and care for them.
London is my home town : ) It was great to see you all sight seeing - Rowing in Maidenhead was hilarious - 'Square, Square!' 😄You are both so fun, energetic and beautiful people : ) It has been amazing to follow you : ) 💕💕
Its actually quite an optimal situation with two brains teaching the same subject, and I noticed how hearing praise from both of them makes it even more special...
So impressed with these ladies, such great attitudes
These 2 have such great energy and love for everything. I admire them.
Maybe one of their nicknames could be the "stereo sisters." They speak in stereo. They're just amazing in so many ways. They're a joy to watch and I hope they're well.
They speak like rappers, where the “hype man” (often Brittany) emphasizes certain words.
They make me smile all the time!
I love how they say "I Will"
Loved your British accents, Abby and Brittany!
I think they are the coolest twins ever!! They are my idols!! I think they are proof that what looks impossible is not!! You have to work hard but it will help..
I find it interesting that they so regularly speak in unison. Clearly there is shared signals being sent to both of their brains causing them to share thoughts in one way or another.
Abby and Brittany, you two are so amazing! And awesome, too!
They got married and life goes on. So happy for them - two heads are better than one!
The girls are amazing
Thanks for sharing 😘
I love you guys!! I have been a huge fan since you were both little!. I'm sending much love from Vancouver BC Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️ ♥️🫂
Oh and your friends are incredible!! 🤗🤗
Very interesting thankyou.
they both have such bright quirky personalities, they must be awesome to have as friends :D
the way they both go "uhm..." in perfect sync is adorable lmao
I kept replaying the one part where both Abby and Brittany slowed down by having her friend walk right in front of her bc she doesn't want them to be exposed or anything like that
I was soooo excited when this video popped up. I was thinking about these two recently coincidentally. Unfortunately, after clicking on the video, I immediately realized this is old footage re-uploaded. I hope someone can get an interview with the girls soon. I've been curious if they have been able to get separate pay for their teaching jobs.
I think they do now.
most recent article i could find was oct 2022 and it said they still shared pay:/
@@lucyjane2883That sucks! But I do know that their job had asked them to try hard to not speak at the same time. Probably so they seem more like two separate people teaching. But I think it is so instinctive to speak together that they seem like a single person in some ways. I can understand both ways.
@@lucyjane2883 thanks for that. I would disagree with them having one salary. They are still two individuals.
Yeah. I would love to listen to a video with how they are doing now. I know they are fourth and fifth grade teachers, but it would still be nice to hear them now.
These Ladies are awesome and inspiring😘❤️❤️❤️
Hello from Greece, Been to Venice, very cool place. Nice trip you took.
It's easy to take LOT'S of pictures, my Daughter and I do every time we go some where 😊
Simply amazing young women from an amazing family. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜with amazing friends.
so cute how they finish eachother's sentences
Very happy for these young ladies
Восхищаюсь этими девочками,они такие позитивные
So cool !!
Amazing girls!! God bless you two!❤️🙏
13:49
Well that little moment made my heart melt. These people are made of something magic that it seems nobody else is! There's an infinite amount of personality in these girls, they are absolutely wonderful.
It’s amazing that they still talk together even if they have two different brains.
Beautiful women with such positivity. They definitely found their purpose in teaching! Role models on how to live life.
Amazing that Abbie & Brittany don't hold/drink their cup of tea together from individual cups. 😊
Looks like a fun time! Glad you enjoyed London with your friends and your tea sandwiches and them cakes 🍰 looked delicious 😋! Glad you enjoyed the rowing 🚣♀️ what a great 👍 experience….
I think you are delightful don't ever change!
there parents did a great job raising them, to be what they want to be, do what they want to do.
Just love them , great sense of humor
What is interesting is that they say the same things at the same time. I was married to an identical twin. Her and her sister would finish each other’s sentences. Clearly these girls are way closer. I was married to one twin and it was a challenge. I just can’t imagine how you would deal with two minds and one body.
* She and her sister
We need an update on them!! Please!!
Agree! The most I've heard is they are now fourth and fifth grade math teachers and in their thirties.
I read Abby got married 😊❤
Abby and Brittany are some of the sweetest girls I've ever met(briefly)!!!!
Повезло им , что родились они не в России , где бы их оставили в роддоме и прожили бы они весь век в доме инвалидов , никогда ничего не увидев . Вот в чём разница между свободной страной и диктатурой.
Was in 'awe' about their rowing!! Hehehe 😁😉
Wow to catch up with Abby and britney is amazing haven't seen them in a long time I though they got separated or something but I was wrong
Nope…their mother was very adamant that they wouldn’t be subjected to the risk. It was a great decision! As long as they are healthy together, why mess with perfection?
I think they share a digestive track so separating them would mean one of them would die
They are so cute. I thank God for them. I love you Abby and Britney. And you family. God bless you all
I love how they speak together 😂 i can't imagine living like this but these two are incredible and how they have survived this long is amazing!
I love how they have just adapted
Those boys just looking at them its rude,
I love how Americans think that all British people sit around drinking tea and eating cake 😂😂
I love when the little girl was like "they are two separate people" i love that
Such beautiful & lovely young ladies, they are going to be amazing teacher's. 💖
They have been teachers for years
I know right!? Not only their intelligence but also their overall view of the world and life is something that, if I had kids, I would give anything to have them as teachers!
They are amazing❤️❤️
Abby and Brittney! Thank you for sharing your life w is your are so cute and fun!!!!! Cant wait to see where you go in the future!!
Beautiful sisters....greetings from Venice Italy...we love abby and brittany!! Beautiful girls🥰🥰🥰🥰
I don't even know what I'm feeling. Of course I think it's great that the girls are handling it so well and are healthy and happy. Personally, I shudder at the thought of having another head on my shoulders or never being alone. zero privacy. It is absolutely not meant badly but it looks very special. I wish both of them only the best. Hats off. class personalities. 🤗😊🍀⚘️
I am absolutely 💯 proud
The talking at the same time is something
I love this girls. I think they are amazing, funny and fun to be with. I would love to meet them some day.
Omgosh I have two friends that have the same name (Carla) ironically -neither one knows the other but they look alike and identical to Abby and Brittany. One looks like Abby and the other like Brittany. I can’t get over the similarities. Yes we all have a twin lol.
I’m starting to love these girls and wished we were friends just like Chris said as he was teaching them to row. That was so sweet. And to watch them interact with the kids was so beautiful to see. I’m so jealous London is on my bucket list. (I live in the south and I’ve been to almost all 50+ 🇺🇸states.)
I would love to travel across the pond! 🏴
Next stop Italy. 🇮🇹
I have always wanted to go there too.. Love you both
This looks like an old video where they were still graduating college. They're now elementary school teachers. Any recent updates on them?!

I read very recently Abby married in 2024
@@suecollins8199 well only one could be on marriage certificate but essentially - the husband has two wives.
Their birthday is coming! Amazing girls!
