It is confusing whether there is a telepathic connection between the twins, which people have wondered for a very long time. Because twins do well in the same course, they think the same answers, and they often behave similarly. Is this as possible as we think?
This is something we are all familiar with from television. You remember the brothers Kemal and Cemal in Kemal Sunal’s movie Good Family Child. Identical twins who grew up far from each other felt each other’s feelings in their hearts from miles away. We have compiled information on the subject for you, although we do not know whether it will remain a state secret whether the twin brothers feel the same in the face of this situation, which does not have a clear scientific explanation and we come across in the movies.
Let’s take a look at this intriguing subject from the very beginning.
Identical twins are formed when the genetic material of the fertilized zygote multiplies and then divides. This causes the material growing inside the embryo to be replicated and two identical materials are formed. The embryo shares very similar DNA, though not exactly the same. This similarity explains why twins look alike and exhibit similar behaviors.
Fraternal twins, on the other hand, are the result of two separate egg cells fertilized by two separate sperm cells. These twins are not exactly alike like identical twins, the only thing they have in common is that they have the same birthday.
What we mean by telepathic bond is that one of the twins feels the feelings and thoughts of the other without any indication.
Twins, not just their genes; they also share their home environment, friends, clothes. It is also claimed that many of the identical twins share a special psychic connection.
The importance of the environmental factor in these feelings is undeniable. We know that people who share the same environment, emotions and home feel and think the same things after a certain time. It is very possible for this situation to occur in twin brothers, and scientific studies are also concluded in this direction.
In 1844, Alexandre Dumas in his novel “The Corsican Brothers” tells the story of two brothers who are separated at birth with Siamese twins.
In the novel, which tells that the twin brothers think and feel the same things, it is shown that they also share their physical feelings. In fact, one of the brothers uses the following sentences in the novel: “Even though we are far from each other right now, our bodies are the same; so that any impression, physical or mental, that one of us perceives has effects on the other.”
There are also interesting explanations on the subject.
In “The Encyclopedia of Superstitions,” (Metro Books 1961), folklorists E. and M. A. Radford write, “Twins, especially identical twins, are bound together by such a strong spiritual bond that they know when danger will strike, that even when separated, misfortune or danger when you threaten one, the other knows it. In the same mysterious way, any happiness or well-being experienced by one of the twins is reflected in the feelings of the other. Often, if one twin dies, the other will not live very long.”
In 2017, 97-year-old twin sisters Martha Williams and Jean Haley died on the outside of their home in the United States from the fall and cold of winter. In 2014, 83-year-old identical twins Helen Mae Cook and Clara Mae Mitchel died a day apart. The different circumstances aroused additional curiosity: One died after suffering a heart attack, while the other succumbed to his battle with Alzheimer’s disease.
It is thought that the environmental factor is also high in this telepathic bond.
Being born in the same environment also allows siblings to be affected by environmental factors at the same rate. Considering the genetic factors, this situation may actually seem possible. But a very surprising exception to this was discovered. The Jim Brothers, who were separated at birth and grew up without seeing each other, had common features as if they shared the same environment.
Adoptive families named the two babies Jim, unbeknownst to each other.
Don’t get me wrong, they just don’t have the same names. The interests of the siblings, who gave the same name to the dogs they adopted as children, were exactly the same. While they both loved mathematics, they became interested in woodworking; they were both married twice and their first wives were called “Linda”. We know how strange that sounds!
Then we will tell you the strangest thing, the names of the women the two brothers married second were the same! At the age of 39, Jim Lewis applied to the court to obtain information about his adoption. But, interestingly, his other brother, Jim Springer, also started searching for his biological family at the same time. Before long, the Jims ran into each other. The story of the Jim Twins got a lot of attention.
So could this all be a coincidence?
Our answer is short and clear: Yes, it can! In this case, the environmental conditions, the growing environment and the conditions are undoubtedly of great importance. This allows twins to think alike, feel the same, and have the same character structure. This situation, which has not reached a scientific conclusion, is attributed to such a conclusion by scientists. The story of the Jim Brothers is said to have developed completely by chance.
There are more than 100 million twins in the world. “There is a business in this business, it cannot be a coincidence!” Before we say that, we should reconsider that this story has also emerged 1 in 100 million.
