Fans think Chandler and Monica moved into the Home Alone house in Friends

Friends fans will remember the final season when Monica and Chandler moved from the apartment to a suburban house

What if we told you that Chandler and Monica may have moved into the Home Alone house without barely anybody noticing for 12 years. Watch below if you don't believe us:

Fellow Friends fans will be aware of just how much time we invest in re-watching the show again and again.

Many of us probably know the show better than the actual cast - so it's quite incredible how we missed this one.

Remember in the final season (2004) when the newly married Bings decided to break our hearts and move out of their Manhattan apartment to go live on their own?

Well, as pointed out by TikToker @kazascoot, when the couple went to see a particular suburban home, it looks very much like it could be the same house used in the 1990's Christmas classic.

Although the McCallisters lived in Chicago, and Monica and Chandler stayed in New York, you can see from windows of the Bings' future home that the surroundings were the same as in Home Alone.

As shown in the clip above, if you take a look at the window view from the Bings' living room, you'll notice a blue garage, which matches the same garage from the 90s film.

If that's not enough proof, if you look at when Kevin flies out of his home on a sleigh, he lands opposite another house with a wreath on the door.

That same door can be spotted from the hallway of Chandler and Monica's new crib.

Production company 22 Vision claim that Friends producers used stock footage from Home Alone to make the neighbourhood outside the Bings' house, which would explain why it looks like they moved into the McCallister gaff.

Viewers have been losing their mind over the footage, with one fan commenting: "There is no freakin' way that they could afford The McCallister house. Considering they spent Chandler's life savings on their wedding."

Another viewer blew out minds with the following theory: "Maybe Friends is a Home Alone prequel, and the Bings turn out to be the neglecting parents."

Wow.

"That’s why Joey was so mad they moved! Chicago isn’t exactly a short train ride from NYC 😂," a third joked.

Despite many in the comments disagreeing with the video, claiming that 'Friends is in NY and Home Alone is in Chicago', it seems that the home owners of the house opposite, which is in Winnetka, Illinois, has firmed up the whole situation back in 2016.

Digital Spy claims that 22 Vision got in touch with the real owners of the house, who reportedly confirmed that it's the same home.

So there you go - mind blown.
