Who are the most identical twins in the world?

Published in Human Biology 1 min read

Anna and Lucy DeCinque, also known as the "world's most identical twins," have gained notoriety for their extreme efforts to maintain their identical appearance.

While the degree of "identicality" is subjective and can be measured through various genetic and physical characteristics, the DeCinque twins have publicly documented their extensive cosmetic procedures and lifestyle choices aimed at maximizing their sameness. It's important to note that "most identical" isn't an officially recognized title, and other sets of twins may share similar levels of genetic similarity or strive for an equally identical appearance. However, Anna and Lucy DeCinque are widely known for their dedication to this pursuit.

It's also important to understand that being "identical" doesn't mean perfectly identical. Even monozygotic (identical) twins will develop slight differences over time due to environmental factors and epigenetic changes. Therefore, the pursuit of perfect identicality is, by its nature, unattainable.
