Abby Hensel and Brittany Hensel

Abigail "Abby" Loraine Hensel and Brittany "Britty" Lee Hensel (born 7 March 1990, Carver County, Minnesota, are highly symmetric dicephalic parapagus conjoined twins, and further, tribrachius, bipedus. They have two spines and separate half-sacrums, which converge distally within a slightly broad pelvis. They each control and sense their corresponding arm and leg; a third, rudimentary central arm was amputated in infancy.

They are two well-adjusted, vigorous and even athletic people whose complicated but high-functioning anatomy precludes separation. They show a remarkable degree of overall proprioception and they have a strong sense of selfhood, with a balanced blend of individualism and teamwork.

These pictures were taken from their MySpace account.

Saw them on TV recently. They're obviously two different people, they have different personalities and such, but every time I see them I can't help thinking "two headed person" - just the optical illusion of their body/bodies I guess.

According to them on the documentary I saw, each controls one half, but they manage to coordinate somehow and do things like walk and play sports and so on.
