The Private Lives Of The Conjoined Bunker Twins - Ripley's Believe It or Notcast Episode 008

from Ripley's Believe It or Notcast · host Ripley's Believe It or Not!

In 1824, a merchant working between Singapore and Bangkok saw what he thought was some kind of human animal—a creature with two heads, but only two arms, swimming in the Chao Phraya River. This week, Brent and Ryan discuss the legendary conjoined twins Chang and Eng Bunker. These twins began as duck sellers in their humble village, traveled as sideshow performers, and eventually became wealthy slave-owners in the American South. Show notes are on Ripleys.com.
