And who knows, maybe they'll end up becoming the longest living of that group as well (though they've got more than 30 years to go to beat that record).Įither way these lovely ladies are among the most interesting when it comes to conjoined twins.even just when it comes to people. Now 27 years old, they are among an elite group of people who have managed to beat the odds of their birth, to become fully developed citizens of the world. Even among that population, only about one in nine of all conjoined twins are dicephalic parapagus, such as Abby and Brittany Hensel. Conjoined twins are only seen about once out of every 189,000 births. But of those 200,000.well let's just say the chances for survival past two years is ridiculously low. Conjoined twins have an incredibly low survival rate. What makes them among the most lucky? It turns out that one in every 200, 000 or so result in conjoined twins. Which is interesting since they apparently hate when people gawk at them (which each of those productions is encouraging people to do). What makes them among the most famous? Well, instead of only having a Wikipedia page, they also have managed to appear on the Oprah Winfrey Show, and they have had numerous documentaries done on their lives.and that's not to mention the reality television show they had for a time as well.


Abby and Brittany Hensel are most certainly among the most famous, and most lucky conjoined twins to have ever existed in this world.
