10) Abbey and Brittany Hensel- The Twins Who Share A Body
If the girls weren’t already special enough, the news came that they were actually ‘dicephalus’ twins, meaning they shared a torso and lower body but had their own heads! From that the ‘one body, two souls’ label was born…
“I want the world to see Abby and Brittany as two individuals, that have the same hopes and fears as any child their age.”- Patty Hensel

The girls might have appeared to share a single body but they actually have their own heart, spine, lungs, stomach, kidneys and gallbladder! The girls are each in control of ‘their side’ of the body- Abby runs the right arm and leg and Brittany controls the left side. They actually don’t feel anything in their other side.
