I think we've all had that one moment when out in public and gone, 'That person looks a lot like me'.
Of course, most of the time it ends up being someone that just looks a lot like you.
However, not all stories end up like that, just ask two identical-looking athletes with same name.
When you look very alike and work in the same field, then why not have a DNA test to provide some answers.

And, somehow, another Brady Feigl is also a 6'4 baseball player with red hair, a red beard and thick glasses.
Quite the story already, eh?
Somehow, there are two baseball-playing Brady Feigls out there and they look very alike too.

One of the players is a a pitcher for the Pericos de Puebla in Mexico, while the other is a pitcher for the Oakland Athletics but was released by the organization in June 2023.
The two athletes are so similar that everyone who sees them can't help but think: are they long-lost brothers?
Even they started to wonder whether they were related after a while. So, Inside Edition got them together to do a DNA test in the hopes of figuring it out once and for all.

It wouldn't be the first time a pair of long-lost siblings had ended up living insanely similar lives.
One of the most famous examples of this were the 'Jim twins', identical twins who were separated at birth and put up for adoption before discovering each other later in life.
When they finally reunited they realised they'd had the same interests along with a brother called Larry, a childhood dog named Toy, a first wife called Linda and a second wife named Betty.
They'd even both unknowingly given their firstborn sons the same name, and liked the same type of beer and brand of cigarettes.

Sadly for anyone hoping for another instance of the 'Jim twins' with the 'Brady twins', DNA testing revealed that these almost identical guys living almost identical lives weren't actually related after all.
Their one big similarity from the DNA test was the level of Germanic ancestry, with both registering as 53 percent Germanic in origin, but on every other measure they were different and therefore not secret siblings.
Hopes of some incredible family reunion were dashed, but the two Bradys are glad they met each other and said they were 'still brothers in a way.'

Doppelgängers like Brady and Brady actually aren't uncommon.
Apparently, every person in the world has about six of them. Nearly as unbelievable as these two having the same name, ay?
