1.1 Separated at Birth: Nature versus Nurture

This video shows two identical twins who were separated at birth, each unaware of the other’s existence until adulthood. The two exhibit very similar personalities, mannerisms, interests, hobbies, and physical appearance (though one is much heavier than the other). Also, both twins independently went into the same profession, firefighting. As you will see in the video, genes may play a significant role in people’s physical, emotional, social, and mental development.
