I too am also an identical mirror twin and I love telling people that if we married twins and had kids they would be siblings and cousins. Love you guys so much!
Out of curiosity, are your and your twin's hearts on different sides of the body and write with different hands based on the assumption that anything mirrored would be like looking at yourself in a mirror?
@EmelyPhan i am not sure about the heart thing but yes I am left handed and she is right handed. Mirror twins usually one is left and the other is right so it is exactly like looking at a mirror. 😊
In recent years, scientists have gained a clearer picture of the early development of the embryos of identical twins. Originating from a single fertilized egg, they later acquire unique genetic mutations. New advances in DNA sequencing are making it possible to pinpoint those mutations - and to tell identical twins apart.
I have identical twins that were born at 26 weeks due to issues from twin to twin transfusion syndrome surgery.. it’s super interesting because since mine developed outside the womb they were influenced by environment, etc., which caused them to look different
Also the epigenetics (modifications of DNA) of twins will be different, which can also be used to differentiate them. Although much harder than simply DNA sequencing for mutations.
Identical twins had their own era back in the 2010s! RUclips was full of them (brooklyn and bailey, the dolan twins, the merrell twins, etc.) and they got famous simply for being twins and collaborating with other sets of twins for fun youtube videos. But now being different is more trendy than being similar so that's why they're not as common anymore, it was a great era though!
@@celestian0013 you can search "youtube twin collabs" and you'll find a few videos if you're interested, some of the videos are still fun and relevant even today
This is so fascinating! I love that guys are on a DNA level, the same but you’re both individuals with different personalities. I’d love to hear how you guys are actually different? Whose tidier/ messier? Does one of you have a dark sense of humour? You’re both creative, but whose more on the creative or academic path? Is one of you more in favour of sweet or savoury foods? I’d love a little video of your differences ❤️ also do you guys have the same allergies?
I have actually met a pair of girls who looked so similar we thought they were fraternal twins. Turns out their parents were two pairs of identical twins.
I have a coworker who told me she has an Identical Twin Sister. I asked her an interesting question once. I told her I've always heard that Identical Twins can always sense what the other one is thinking and wondered if it was true. She laughed and said that was Fictional, but she and her Sister do sometimes finish each other's Sentences
I think you're wrong about the 'sibling' fact. So if Bailey has genes Aa and Brooklyn does too, and if they marry twin husbands and they both have aa, that means it can get mixed. Bailey might give the A, and her husband an a, so her kid will have Aa. If brooklyn gives an a and her husband does too, her kid will have aa (this is what happens with eye colours). So your kids will have Aa and aa for eye colour, which can result in a brown and blue eye colour: The kids don't have exact the same DNA and will not be siblings.
im also an identical twin and my teachers always say I could get away with crimes. and then when we were doing the genetic unit in science, I was used as an example many times😅
I am an identical twin ❤❤ so a lot of this relates except for the child thing hahaha I have a son soooo lol much love to you girls from Kirsty in Australia xx
As time goes on, technology will make it possible to easily tell identical twins DNA apart. There are biological differences that each twin accumulates over the course of their lifetime such as mutations.
Actually there is a way to tell twins apart BUT it only works if you live in different areas like if one of you lived in the country and the other lived in the mountains, it's because of chemicals and particles in the air that can mix with your DNA and show detectives where the suspect has been (it was in an episode of csi, og las Vegas, but in highschool I did ask a criminal justice teacher and he confirmed it for me)
I'm so glad they brought up how their kids would be genetically as similar as half siblings and if they had married two identical twin brothers and by the way that's called a coronary marriage when two identical twin sisters married to identical twin brothers then their kids would be genetically as similar as siblings
Fun fact about boy and girl twins cause apparently it isn’t common knowledge unless your me(who is a girl with a boy twin) we can’t be identical cause different parts 🤗
Just had to pop in and say real quick that identical twins are from the same egg and sperm. Semi-identical are from the same egg, but separate sperm and then fratenal are from a different egg and a different sperm. Love you guys!
Additional fact: if identical twins marry another identical twins their children have a chance to look identical as well!
That fact was kind already in the video
Smart😂
Slim chance. How identical do full siblings look?
Isn't that just common sense

As a fraternal twin. Love the shout out and appreciate it!!♥️
You guys look absolutely beautiful in your guys long hair! 😍
Literally you guys are both gorgeous!!!! When people say there’s usually a prettier twin, not with you guys!!
At the end they’re like not that we’re tryna get away with anything tho!! 😂😂

NO! IT’S PART OF THE FUN!
@@KelseyMc6that’s so interesting!!!
I was looking for this comment!! Thank you for spreading this factual information!!
LOVE those grey eyes. These cute DNA facts are very interesting!!
Your eyes and eyelashes how did u do it that good❤❤❤
Y’all’s eyes are soooo pretty!!!
I’m currently at the end of a forensics course and we had a mini unit based just on identical twins because of how much it could impact a crime
This might be a little late but I don’t understand? How does that work? How would they pull it off? Please explain
I love this video, because I am also an identical twin, however, I don't see very many on youtube, so it's cool to find something super relatable.

@@angelbaby.13 that's interesting, and I've seen some of them, but I definitely don't know of the collabs. I am young though, so I know why

Love your hair Bails!!!!
They are so pretty hi Brooklyn and bailey
Omg y’all r so pretty I love you guys!!!
Y'all seem alil too excited with the escaping crimes more part 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 am living for it

I love how both your names start with b ❤❤❤
I am a identical twin myself and it’s true I believe on what you said you are right!
Bailey you look gorgggg with your new hair
THE WAY I GOT WAY TOO EXCITED WHEN YOU MENTIONED SCOOBY DOO 😭
Omg your all so pretty love you ❤❤❤❤
Your guys eyelashes are so long and pretty
So pretty

I have actually met a pair of girls who looked so similar we thought they were fraternal twins. Turns out their parents were two pairs of identical twins.
Omg Bailey love the hair
I’m am identical twin too and I never new when I’m older about my children being half siblings. Thanks for letting me know
I love y’all’s lashes!🩷
And if you had merry another set of identical twins your kids would have been full siblings!! That's so crazy and cool ❤
I love being an identical twin:)
Me too
The crime thing - there is a Bollywood movie called GUMRAAH that is literally based on that. Its a must watch - very thrilling

I'm also an identical twin so I totally understand!!
Your eyes are so mesmerizing and beautiful ❤
It’s so crazy how some people are just discovering you because I’ve been watching you guys since the very beginning 🥹🥹❤️❤️
I Had A Dream Where on the Moon there was Writing saying “he’s coming the 28th” about Jesus So Everyone Just Be Prepared✝️🙏🏻💖💖
I’m an identical twin and this is so true!
for the last one, ya'll both might get in trouble.......
I am a fraternal twin 😅😊
Idc about What they are talking about.. WHAT MASCARA DO YOU GUYS USE..🤩🤩🤩LIKE WOW
You and Ricky were so funny

Both beautiful

*IM AN IDENTICAL TWIN TO and we look so much like you but we have brown eyes I CANT BELIEVE THIS*❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂

Brooklyn and Bailey look more alike since Bailey starts growing her hair out I kinda miss the color hair but it fine she look great ether way❤
Yeah, LOVE the longer hair but I miss the pink. She must keep it long but just colour it like she used to 🤞🏻💕
@@theresascholtz3637 same
I'm so glad they brought up how their kids would be genetically as similar as half siblings and if they had married two identical twin brothers and by the way that's called a coronary marriage when two identical twin sisters married to identical twin brothers then their kids would be genetically as similar as siblings
the hand movement 🤣🤪
I can already tell you apart by your teeth and the way one smiles more upward than the other.
I am a identical twin, and my sister disagrees with half of this 😭 she’s always saying “that’s not true” and I’m always like “yes, it is”
Father’s dna is what offspring gets
Plot twist: they arrest you both because they also cannot disprove one of you😅
Fun fact about boy and girl twins cause apparently it isn’t common knowledge unless your me(who is a girl with a boy twin) we can’t be identical cause different parts 🤗
Im an identical twin! Its really cool how my sis and i have the same dna
Me and my sister are also identical twins! It cool sometimes but I really don’t like how people
Will get us mixed up lol
I thought you had the same fingers prints mind blown 🤯
Interesting! I am not a twin myself, but have Female cousins that are fraternal twins, and I have always been interested in twin things.🥰
This is so random but you guys look exactly like the twins from the elf on the shelf movie
Can you make a morning routine? In detail
The eyes 🥰🥰😍😍😍
I never knew the half sibling fact-especially not about the full sibling fact, that’s crazy to me.
You actually came from the same embryo that split in 2 😇
so you're telling me my uncle's (my dad's identical twin) kids are my HALF SIBLINGS?? SO THAT MEANS I HAVE 7 SIBLINGS... AHHAGHAGHAGHGAGHGAHGHAHAG
hey brooklyn and bailey! question for you two! is your skincare hypoallergenic my skin is very sensitive, and to fragrance things.
Can u do more videos like that?
Your mom got the bogo deal ♡ so you guys are like technically clones of one another. You guys are lovely a♡
That’s too bad. I’m a fraternal twin.
My daughters are identical twins too❤❤they just turned 3❤❤
If anyone's confused like I was, they wouldn't technically be siblings or half siblings. They would just have dna simaller to like siblings do
There plotting something with Scooby doo😅
if identical twins marry identical twins, your nephew/niece would also be you full son/daughter, i think about that alot
Just had to pop in and say real quick that identical twins are from the same egg and sperm. Semi-identical are from the same egg, but separate sperm and then fratenal are from a different egg and a different sperm.
Love you guys!
I am an identical twin! couldn’t imagine not being one
SO THATS WHY I LOOK SO MUCH LIKE MY COUSIN!😂
You guys have really pretty eyes btw you probably already know that but just wanted to say it🙃🙂🙃
my dad is an identical twin and his brothers daughters look like me and my sister lol. genetics are crazy
My dad is a mirror twin our cousins look just like us lol
Wait... I thought you guys were fraternal twins!!! I didn't know you were identical, thats so cool!
Are you joking
Im a twin too but fraternal
also WHAT MASCARA ARE YOU USINGGGG ??!!
The only thing with the crime thing is with a good forensic specialist they can tell you apart with medical history like medication.
My great aunts are identical twins that married identical twins and their kids are technically siblings it’s pretty cool
As a twin who is boy/girl I cannot relate😔
I have 2 questions, 1) do you guys have the same allergies? and 2)are you the same height all the time? ❤
EDIT:can you do a full Q&A video ❤❤
I’m from Waco/Baylor where Brooklyn and Bailey are from and I’m an identical twin!!
This stuff is crazy 😂❤❤❤
