Man Sits Next To His Exact Lookalike On Flight

DENVER (CBS4) - A man in the UK has found his doppelganger. Neil Thomas Douglas boarded a plane only to find a man that looked just like him sitting in his seat.

According to The Guardian, Douglas said, "When I got on the Ryanair flight, there was a dude already on my seat – when the guy looked up, I thought: 'He looks like me.' We had a big laugh about it – everyone around us had a laugh, we took a selfie and that was it."

Lee Beattie, a friend of Douglas' wife, posted the photo to Twitter is disbelief that the strangers were so similar looking. It has since been retweeted thousands of times.

Weirdness continued when the two found each other at the same hotel in their destination city, and again when they bumped into each other at the pub.
