I don't know about the proper term. In German we call it monozygous (eineiig). I've watched that video many years ago. Didn't even remember the twin girls. Also I've only grown cautious of twins in the last few months. But I think I'm onto something. They're not quite right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah it's not them. That's from The Shining. But The Kill is based on that film and there's loads of twins dancing towards the end of the video as well as 'twins' shadowing the band's movements.

Ah ok, I know the Twins from the Shining and thought they just copied them for the Music Video. I used to like 30STM until Jared Leto turned into a weird arrogant douche nozzle.

Berserker 1,332 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 In Spanish we have two words for twins, gemelos, which are the ones who look the same and @Tommy is talking about, and mellizos who almost never look the same but were also born at the same time. It's weird than in English they're classified as the same with the same word as they're different, the first ones are born from one spermatozoon and one ovum shared by both, while the others have one of each for each other.

Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 My mother has a twin brother and my father has a twin sister, obviously they aren't twins with each other(I'm not from Burnley), but that is quite unique thinking about it.

And of course they grew up together, they have the same mannerisms, facial expressions etc. Gives me the willies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you date a twin they always try to mess with your mind as well which from the outside is probably rib breakingly hilarious but not for the poor sucker getting preyed upon...
