Do you really know?

Show Notes

According to a study published in Human Reproduction in 2021, there are around 1.6 million twins born each year, with an average of one in every 42 newborn children being a twin. The research also revealed that the global twinning rate had increased by a third since the 1980s.

It’s fair to say that twins have long fascinated scientists, and society as a whole. Some people portray twins as kind of identical clones with supernatural powers. They suggest that twins are capable of communicating telepathically and experiencing each other’s emotions, even from great distances.
