It all started when my co-worker Bryan was sent a picture of a Vietnam War photographer. The caption beneath the picture said, “You ever travel back in time to be a war photographer?” Bryan, who was decades away from being conceived when the photo was taken, was the spitting image of the man in the picture.

Trust me; if you’re inclined to believe in reincarnation, this picture of Bryan before Bryan was born is all the proof you need.

It got the rest of my co-workers wondering whether we, too, have doppelgangers. That’s when Lily, another co-worker, semi-jokingly said she found her lookalike in the English comedian Stephen Fry. Stephen Fry, as you might have guessed, is a man.
