The twins were born in Dayton, Ohio in October 1951 but stayed in the hospital for two years as doctors tried to find a way of separating them. But when they said they can’t guarantee that after surgery, the two children will survive, parents said that they want to keep it that way.

They continued their work at circuses in Central and South America, where they were showing magic tricks and entertained people.

At the age of 39 years they finished their circus activities and came to his younger brother Jim.


In 2010, their health has deteriorated due to a viral infection that caused blood clots in his lungs and Jim wanted them to move to live with him. That’s just his house is not suitable for people with disabilities.

Together they go fishing, to the fair and to the restaurant. Of course, many people pay attention to them and laugh at them, but there are those who pay their restaurant bills and says kind words.
