15+ Times When the Apple Didn’t Fall Far From the Genetic Tree

Some people are dealt some powerful genes. So much so that their physical characteristics get copy-pasted to their kin — even to those who are multiple generations down the line. From kids transforming into mirror images of their parents after reaching a certain age, to individuals bearing an uncanny resemblance to their older relatives, there is no doubt that the genetic force is strong within certain families.

Now I’ve Seen Everything rounded up 16 side-by-side photos of people who hit the DNA jackpot with their impressive genetic matches.

1. “My mom and sister, both at age 6”
