Two identical looking strangers end up sitting beside each other on plane

What would you do if you sat down on a flight, turned to your left and saw...yourself? First, you'd freak out, then you'd take a selfie. Or maybe vice versa. Lee Beattie, the co-founder of a Scottish marketing agency, tweeted the picture of these two identical strangers who found themselves sitting beside each other on a Ryanair flight to Galway, Ireland.

She told Buzzfeed News that the handsome gentleman on the right is Neil Thomas Douglas, a photographer who was traveling to a wedding. The guy on the left was not his long-lost twin, just a guy who ended up with the most perfect seat assignment ever. Beattie said:

"When he got on his Ryanair flight, there was a dude already on his seat. He asked him to move and when the guy looked up, he thought: 'Holy [expletive], he looks like me. They had a big laugh about it – everyone around them had a laugh, they took a selfie and that was it."

But that wasn't it. The two said goodbye at the airport, then went to Galway to check into their respective hotels – only to discover that they were staying at the same hotel. And when Douglas went out for drink, guess who was at the same bar? THAT'S RIGHT.

Despite the full-on strangeness of the situation – or maybe because of it – the two forgot to get each other's names. "They were so freaked by it that their actual small talk was just like "‘BEARDS. THE SAME.,;" Beattie said.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! Several other bearded guys have responded to Beattie's tweet, convinced that they're all part of the same identical club. We can't wait to see the pictures from that Ryanair flight.
