Some conjoined twins should just be left together. Besides, if these two lived it would be wild to see how they dealt with life.

I wonder what organs they share, aside from skin. Skull? Cranial blood vessels? Brain tissue?

Shudder,

I wish this were just a Photoshop trick... that's disturbing.

Whoa! *rubs his eyes*

There is an older set of conjoined twins here in the US that are joined at the head. (I believe they are in their 50s or 60s now.) I've seen them on the talk show circuit a few times and they seem relatively well-adjusted. Amazing...

I heard them on Howard Stern, no less.

Yes, he asked many questions about their sex life.

Yes, they think of themselves as separate people, and talk about dating people separately.

Quite interesting, and Howard did ask a lot better set of questions than most other talk-show hosts, mainly because he asked about what he normally asks about, toilet humor level stuff.

They handled it pretty well, too. Very nice people!
