Twins separated at birth reunited after 30 years (Video)

It sounds way too crazy to be true, but we assure you it happened.

After Anais Bordier and some of her friends saw Samantha Futerman in a KevJumba clip on YouTube and watched her in a trailer for 21 and Over, they got an inkling suspicion that the two girls might be related. After all, they looked exactly the same.

“It said she had seen me in a YouTube video, then after looking my name up online, saw that we were both adopted, and born on the same day, in the same city. When I saw her profile, it was crazy. She looked just like me.”

The message had been sent by Anais Bordier, a French fashion designer in London.

“When I looked at the video, I – it was, like, shocking …,” Bordier said, explaining her reaction to seeing Futerman’s YouTube video. “You can’t imagine that you might have a twin sister somewhere that you don’t know about.”

Bordier and Futerman, who appeared together for this morning’s interview, discovered they were both born in Busan, South Korea. They decided to start chatting via Skype. Both women speak English, although French is Anais’ first language.

Futerman described this morning looking into Bordier’s face and seeing a mirror of her own features. Nonetheless, they’ve had their DNA tested to erase any doubt that they’re sisters.

“It was weird, but I feel like there was a strange calm and comfort as well, and something that I can’t really explain,” Futerman said. “We talked for three hours.”

They met for the first time in London, then in Los Angeles, and they’ve united again in Manhattan. They’ve now decided to make a documentary about their experience, and they say they’ve already heard from many other adoptees who are thankful to them.
