Running into someone with the same name, or someone with a similar appearance might be enough to spook you out - but what about both?
I'm pretty sure running into someone that looked like me and had the same name would make me question reality, but this is exactly what happened to Brady Feigl.
And, err, Brady Feigl.

Both of the men in question are 6'4" and have a head and beard of ginger hair, as well as a pair of glasses each.
It's enough to send shivers down your spine, but on top of all of this, the American athletes are also both professional baseball players.
One plays as a pitcher for the Minnesota Twins in the MLB (Major League Baseball), while the other plays as a pitcher for MiLB (Minor League Baseball) team the Las Vegas Aviators.
The athletes even decided to take a DNA test after discovering who each other were, in case they were long-lost siblings.
People had been telling the pair about their similarities for a long time, and how it really wouldn't be all surprising if they were related.

While they did question it at first, it turned out that they weren't related at all.
Even though both of them were of Germanic ancestry, and both were down at 53 percent, this is where the similarities ended.
They were different on other origins and percentages, so the pair aren't long-lost baseball brothers after all.
The Bradys first featured on Inside Edition in 2018, as many thought they were twins separated at birth, with one of the Bradys recalling: “The week that it hit TV my phone blew up, I felt like I had to put it on airplane mode and put it down.”
But it's been seven years since then, so what do they look like now?

The Brady that now plays for the Twins has notably gotten rid of beard, keeping a moustache that sets him apart from his lookalike.
He played for the Pittsburgh Pirates in both the MLB and MiLB in 2024, and signed a MiLB contract with the Minnesota Twins in February this year.
As for his doppelganger, it looks like he has stayed more or less the same, though both of the sportsmen look more different without glasses, it must be said.
Going into the specifics of the DNA results, one of them had two percent 'Ireland and Scotland', with the other having 10.

One was four percent Italian, with the other Brady having no ties to Italy at all.
So close, yet so far.
While the pair may not be related and shared a striking resemblance to each other at the time, they came away with their heads held high.
One said: “We’re still brothers in a way, I guess,” with the other stating: “And we’re always gonna be Brady Feigl.”
