17 People Who Are the Spitting Image of Their Relatives

We all inherit things from our ancestors, whether it is our name, our personality traits or some physical features. But some people’s resemblance with their grandparents or even great-grandparents is so striking that we’d start believing in time travel just by looking at them. And some might even start thinking that being the spitting image of an older relative is a mystical sign that they’ll also have the same destiny.

Now I’ve Seen Everything is fascinated by genetics and the science of transmission. And we want to share side-by-side images of family members that will trick your mind into thinking they are the same person.

5. “My dad and me wearing the same tie on our respective graduations, 30 years apart — this wasn’t planned.”
