When I tell my story people
they don't believe it.
I don't think I will believe story
if someone else tells it that, but, I tell it
and that's true, every word.
It starts when I was born, 56 years ago,
but the real story started when I was 19
and I went to college.
"Because You Have Went"
It was 1980. It was the first day of school
at Sullivan County Community College in Catskills,
about 110 miles from where I grew up.
So, I drove there alone.
I used to have this really old car . That is Volvo.
And that is Volvo in 1970.
Has 130,000 miles on it.
And the car is wine red. And the hood is green.
Actually the car was called the Old Whore.
But the Old Whore takes me there.
Sullivan is a community college.
It's not long a higher learning institution.
All of these station cars take the kids away.
I'm nervous, I just arrived at school,
I don't know anyone. I am a new student.
I have never been captain a football team in high school,
so I have never been right- really like popular > say "Hi, how are you?"
Jadi, saya berkeliling mencoba mencari di mana asrama saya.
Sementara semua orang ini akan mendatangi saya
mengatakan "Hai, apa kabar?"
"How is your summer?"
"My hands are great. How are you?" "Super."
Why did they ask me how was the summer me? I don't know.
Everyone is very friendly to me
and they go out of their way to do it.
I don't mean just & apos; hi & apos;,
I mean, pats on and toddlers are high.
And I'm a little hit confused with this
because no one gets this kind of welcome
on their first day at school.
And the girls kiss me,
p>
like fully kissing me said, "I'm glad you returned."
That's weird.
And the next thing I heard from right behind me.
& apos; Welcome back. Eddy! "
" Eddy! How are you! Eddy, hi! "
I like," My name isn't Eddy. I don't know
& apos; what are you talking about. I just woke up here. "
" Sure, Eddy, you're really funny,
& apos; you're really funny, very funny. "
I like," I'm not Eddy. I don't know who Eddy is. "
& apos; Welcome back, Eddy", they all said.
I finally managed to dump this dorm room.
Before a minute passed...
"Who is it now? Who is now coming to look for Eddy?"
I have gone to college
the previous year with Eddy, and I know
that he did not return to school.
As soon as this person turned around, I...
I, I'm really trembling.
I... I know all the colors of my face fall
because I know it is double.
He has the same smile, the same hair, the same expression.
That's double.
And I see the face of a man this is and he's like...
just standing there.
The first thing that comes out of my mouth is & apos; Are you adopted? & apos;
Er... and I'm like, "Yes."
I said, "Is your birthday July 12?" Say yes. </ P>
I like, "July 12, 1961." </ P>
"My God", kataku, "Kamu tidak akan percaya ini."
I said, "You have a twin brother brother. You have a twin brother."
"My Lord."
I said. "Come with me." </ P>
And we both crammed into this telephone booth. </ P>
Shoulder-to-shoulder and you know, we have to like,
close the telephone booth door.
And I try to insert the coins
and they keep falling to the floor
and Bobby takes the coins.
And he calls this person and he's like,
"Hey, Eddy, you don't believe this, </ p >
"you will not believe this.
" Eddy, Eddy, you will not believe this. "
This person is more hysterical than I'm kind of weird.
"Eddy, you don't believe this."
So I'm like, "Give me a phone."
So I'm like, "Hi, Eddy?" "Yes."
But that's my voice who said, "Yes." </ P>
And I said, "Hi, Eddy, my name is Robert Shafran
" and, er.... I met all of these people
"who said I was you."
And he said, "I am, yeah, I have got several calls. "
I said," Are you adopted? " and he said," Yes. "
And I said, " When is your birthday? "
"July 12."
And I said, "Do you know what the agency's name is ? "
And he said," No, wait. "
And I heard him say," Mom? "
And he came back and he said, "Louise Wise Services."
Sometimes when you only dream,
you know this can't be real , this can't be real.
But you know there's nothing you can do to stop it,
start it, change it, You just go with it
and that's what I do. </ P>
I just want to see what will happen next. </ P>
Now I'm like, let's go. Let's go to LI.
So we go to Old Bitch.
It's around 9 pm
and it's around two hours drive.
And we speed on route 17.
We will take 100 miles per hour, maybe more.
We speed.
We are driving quickly because this car will go.
It was trembling.
And we stopped by a New York State policeman.
And when I rolled into my window there was this giant cop
with like sunglasses even though it's late.
And a big hat.
He said, "You know, I recorded you in 88 in 50.
"Son, you're better a very good reason. "
And I'm like,
" Well, Officer, you never will believe this. "
We are both like shouting at this person.
" You, you don't know,
& apos; this man, this man > have twin brothers,
"He was adopted and we will go to Long Island to go see..."
Dan, dan, dan pria itu, "Ya benar." Kamu tahu.
"Here, this is your ticket. Have a nice day."
And to Long Island we go.
So, we get there.
But it's like, midnight.
And this is really a quiet environment.
So, we get out of the car.
>
And walking on this small path home.
And the lights are on inside the house.
And I reach out knock on the door
and when I reach out knock on the door, the door opens.
And I'm there.
His eyes are my eyes and my eyes are his eyes
and that's true.
They look exactly the same.
They duplicate each other.
Nothing doubt in my mind that they are twins.
He goes, "Holy crap." I go, "Holy crap."
They just look at each other and they move...
Every time Bobby moves his head, Eddy moves
and then Eddy will move then Bobby will move,
like, like them > look in the mirror.
That is the weirdest thing.
It's like the world is fading,
and that's just me and Eddy.
So, I'm in the newsroom, this is a busy day,
we got a call from someone
who said they had an amazing story to tell us,
we won't do it believe this story,
and my first reaction, "That's a trick."
Jadi, saya memberi tahu reporter kami, "Aku mau menyewa pesawat."
At that time we had enough money to do this.
"I want to rent a plane, I want see these two children facing lace
"Or I don't believe this." </ P>
We flew journalists to Sullivan Community College
and he called me and he said, "Howie, that right, that's right.
And I remember saying, "Yes God, this is an extraordinary story.
" This impresses a heart-warming story . "
And then the story starts being extraordinarily extraordinary, okay,
from extraordinary to extraordinary.
I was at Subway New York. </ P>
Enough late at night. </ P>
Read the article about two boys who found each other. </ P>
Those were twins separated when born
and find each other
in Sullivan County Campus community.
There are no pictures. But the story is very interesting.
I go home, and go to bed.
My mother goes into the room
and says, "Wake up, wake up, I have to show you something."
And he showed me a Newspaper
with pictures of two boys
and I have to like it, focus and I see the photo
and I say, " Is that David? "</ P>
And he was like," No, but look at the hand. " normal. "
That's an image in the newspaper two men,
in" Post "and I took the picture
and I saw it ,
and I like shock,
dan aku seperti shock,
cos the two people in "Post" look exactly, exactly
like, like my friend David. I look at him.
And that's not even fair their faces look.
That's the way they are holding their hands.
They have big fat hands. And David always has this ,
This hand looks like a baseball glove.
And when I see their hands, I just found out that this is David. </ p >
It's just a normal day.
I arrived at school, met my friend Alan.
He said, "David, look at this. £
And he has a copy of from "New York Post". </ P>
Dan, er... he opens it
and said, "Look at this.
" Look, look familiar? " Something for that effect.
And I said, "Yes, right. Sure."
But then we saw it a little closer.
That was an article, he said,
p>
"Twins reunited after more than 19 years."
And it has two images of what looks like me.
Everything starts to sink. </ P>
"Damn, my Lord. </ P>
" Are you? This is not... This can't be trusted,
"This, this can't be trusted. Wow! </ P>
" This is great, this is serious,
"This isn't that kind of thing Incidentally crazy.
" This is not a small resemblance.
& apos; This is real, this is happening,
"this is really, really serious."
I threw out the class and went home.
My mother was waiting at the kitchen table
And I said, "Mom, do you see this?"
He said, "You saw this?" And we exchanged newspapers.
That, "... was born Long Island Jewish Hospital."
"July 12, 1961."
And that Louise Wise agent adoption.
I mean, I always know growing up that I was adopted,
My parents are always there open about that.
But said Eddy Galland Hyde Park New, Long Island,
Robert Shafran from Scarsdale, New York.
I remember saying,
"Leading Scarsdale son Mort Shaiman doctor"
and, er... my first thoughts, I said,
"He has a rich family .
"The SOB might drive a Benz! He got a doctorate! "
And I remember being with David in the kitchen.
We were like, very nervous.
I mean, we know, jumping up and down, that...
You know, we are 19 years old. I mean this is real.
And David picked up the phone and he called Information,
and he reached Eddy's mother.
And I said, "Hi, is Eddy at home?"
He said, "No, who who calls, please? "
And I think, & apos; OK,
ΓÇ £ now I have to enter all this on the phone. "
I said," Yes, my name is is David Kellman,
"and I was born July 12, 1961
" And I'm looking newspaper
"and, er... basically I think I see two of me.
"I think I might be the third."
And I thought he fell phone, actually.
And I remember hearing his voice over the phone ,
"Dear God, they are out of wood!"
That is a miracle.
The first time that children meet together,
the three together are in my house.
And the three of them end
like wrestling children on the floor.
That is the most extraordinary...
that is the most extraordinary thing.
They belong to each other.
They know each other. There there is no official introduction.
I mean, when you meet someone for the first time
you don't end up rolling around on the floor with them.
It really isn't fully trustworthy.
Even though it's happening it's still real.
You think you are dreaming.
You are looking for and you are still "My God."
You see something else, "My Lord."
And then you realize that they are looking at you
or someone else are looking at you too.
To have all three of them at home at one time...
That... that really madness .
My emotions are shocked, shock and more surprises.
I mean, I can't explain it,
I don't have terminology yet. p>
One of our reporters came ran towards me and said
& apos; you will not believe this,
"you will not believe the call we just got.
"You know these two children on the front page today?
"Well, there is a third."
They even move the same way.
We all just sit back
and watch three separate <
As I said
I am more like Eddy than I am David,
and more like David /> than I did Eddy,
and more like both than they like each other.
Does that make sense?
And then we start comparing notes.
What do 19-year-old teenagers do?
Liquor, cigarettes, food, women, music, cars. </ p >
I just brought a brand new Mercury Capri, which I love.
And Bobby has this, Maroon beats an old Volvo
with upholstery cracked skin and I think,
"A prominent child Doctor Scarsdale?"
I think it's Eddy who said
right at the beginning,
"I don't know whether this will change to be big or terrible. "
So, there are always questions, big question marks,
about where the story is finally left.
We didn't realize since then
how much everything will change.
& apos; Now one of the most extraordinary stories I've seen in some time:
& apos; a story about triplets.
& apos; Eddy, Robert, and David reunited after 19 years old. & apos;
& apos; We have stories about triplets which give new meaning
& apos; to phrases long-lost brothers. & apos;
We continue everything. Everything.
& apos; You don't see double
& apos; you may soon be going to see a triple. & apos;
& apos; I don't know who is here.
& apos; Come out, gentlemen, come out. & apos;
You just have to stop what you do
and watch them at each different event.
This becomes circus, it becomes a media circus.
Talking about viruses, I mean is... it's even viral.
& apos; You've been < br /> the front page of each newspaper
- & apos; in the world. & apos; - Right. & apos;
"People Magazine", & apos; Time Magazine & apos;,
even "New York Times", "Good Housekeeping".
& apos; David, let's start with you.
& apos; Which & apos ;: David, I always forget? & apos;
- & apos; you're Edward? & apos; < br /> - & apos; Right!
& apos; OK, who are you, are you David? & apos;
- & apos; I'm Bobby. & apos; - & apos; You... I'm sorry.
"You're Robert, alright. Robert and Edward. "
& apos; Come on. & apos;
ll is a fairy tale.
And people need to hear beautiful things.
& apos; These three young men,
& apos; They all sit in the same position. & apos;
It's kind of amazing. They're really strangers.
They look identical to each other
but they are strangers, no?
You know, they really don't know each other.
But their behavior is very similar.
& apos; Our lives are parallel to phenomenal levels. </ P>
"That, that's ridiculous." </ P>
& apos; We are all the same,
as soon as we start discussing our personality. & apos;
& apos; Personality is the same, our movements are the same. & apos;
& apos; We always talk at the same time. & apos;
& apos; I will start a sentence and he will finish it. <
& apos; We all like Chinese Load. & apos;
& apos; You are all wrestlers at once? & apos;
& apos; Yes. & apos;
& apos; All of you smoke with the same brand cigarettes? & apos;
& apos; Yes. & apos;
& apos; What type of cigarettes do you smoke? & apos;
& apos; Marlboro!
& apos; Do you all smoke the same brand? & apos;
& apos; Yes. & apos;
- & apos; Do you like the same color? & apos; - Wes. & apos;
& apos; Yes, I'm curious, how they feel for women,
- & apos; is that similar? & apos; - & apos; Yes Here. Surely. & apos;
Looks like they all like older women.
"Someone said you all like older women."
& apos; Good... & apos;
& apos; Another surprising coincidence </ p >
& apos; Are each brother growing up with an adopted sister,
& apos; All girls are now 21 years old. & apos;
& apos; I can't forget it, I say to you. & apos;
& apos; Extraordinary rope incidentally
& apos; all of you must agree, right? & apos;
& apos; Beautiful. & apos;
& apos; > & apos; but you only know each other for a short time. "
& apos; No problem, I already know they are my whole life. & apos;
& apos; How long does it take for you to have that feeling? & apos;
& apos; Like that. & apos;
They are more like clones
than they are like brothers.
daripada mereka seperti saudara.
It was truly astonishing because they grew up
it seems that it will happen quite different households.
We have been adopted by blue-collar families,
a middle-class family and a more affluent family.
Bobby's parents, Bobby's father is a medical doctor.
And his mother is a lawyer.
So they are very well educated and they live
in one of the most prestigious regions of the country .
Eddy's father is a teacher, he has a college education.
And they live in what will be considered
middle class environment.
My family on paper are the least educated,
they are immigrants, English is their second language,
they have a small shop,
they are more blue-collar families.
But my father is just
a warm man who is extraordinarily generous this.
David's father, Richard, is bigger than life.
If you can imagine this person is a big man,
with a big cigar always hanging out of his mouth.
We call it & apos; bubala & apos;
He is Bubala.
If you know the language Yiddish, & apos; Bubala & apos; it's like love,
it's hugging and it's kissing.
We spend more time at David's house
from other places.
Bubala celebrates us unlike others. </ P>
He said, "I have two more sons." </ P>
When children find each other
that kind of happened
right away.
This is this amazing story
and that's it.
Nobody questions what is happening
except parents of course.
When the family meets the first time
there is great anger in all of them
about the fact that parents were never told
that there were two other children.
They did not tell us a word when we adopted.
We don't know anything about the other two
until, er... the kids meet at, at school,
20 years later.
The first thing that hit me was what was missing.
I believe they were six months long when they were separated.
If You imagine the three small bodies lying together
and suddenly cold alone in the baby's crib.
This is a terrible seizure.
I remember being told by my mother
when I was a baby, I would do it slam my head against the wall,
I would basically knock myself.
My mother said that I would bang my head
in the box...
and I will hold my breath until I pass out.
I believe it really separation anxiety
We have all been adopted from Louise Wise Services.
& apos; Louise Wise Services,
& apos; New York Institute < br /> was re-established in 1915
& apos; supervised by the board of directors
& apos; taken from New York City
& apos; social, financial and political elite. & apos;
They are the foremost adoption agent
on the East Coast for Jewish babies in particular.
That's the right place.
What we feel
at Louise Wise Services
where I have been active
for a long time,
is that adoptive parent must be notified
as much as about a child's background is natural.
Our parents, they, they want an answer, they are angry.
And they arrange a meeting and they... six of them
entered Louise Wise Agency to try to get an answer
in connection with what happened.
There was a meeting with officials in the agency.
And they were asked,
"Are you really separated? these kids when born? "
And they said, & apos; Yes, we succeeded. & apos;
Why?
How can you not tell us?
What are you doing?
Why and how can you do it?
They said the reason
because it's difficult to place three children in one house.
Parents have been told that
is for our best interests that we have separated.
That's not every parent will welcome triplets,
and the triplets are difficult to place.
Which... I thought at that time my father blew the pile.
And just said, "We have already taken all three.
"There is no question." And he is very angry.
Well, the meeting ended.
They all left.
They feel like they don't get anything.
And my father realized that he had left his umbrella there .
And he returned to get an umbrella.
And he entered the room
p>
to see them open a bottle of champagne...
and roast each other as if they are avoiding bullets.
They look like they are /> just miss being hurt
or killed or what you have.
That, er... it's easy to remember.
Everyone Our old man came away from the meeting angry.
Parents went to some beautiful ones a prestigious New York law firm
and initially they met <br With lots of enthusiasm,
and, er... is always inside a difficult time period
is notified, er... there is a conflict
They said, "We have a number of colleagues
& apos; Who tried to adopt through Louise Wise,
" And we don't want to damage /> their opportunities. "
So, the lawsuit has already come out.
We are too happy together being angry.
We don't understand it and titles that we hardly care about.
Our heads are in the cloud,
we know our parents are angry
but it's almost like, "Well,
When we go out partying.
This is New York in the 1980s.
Drugs are different, /> different people,
sex is different, music is different.
We are just, we just had a skillet advantage of all that stuff.
Sex, medicine, rock & nos; roll.
They went berserk in New York, I would say.
Studio 54 is cooking. Center of attention. Copacabana.
They hit them all.
New York loves us. New York loves us.
All newspapers follow children around
it doesn't matter where we go.
I remember walking in one morning
and my mom threw "New York Post" to me,
at the kitchen table said, "I have to look at the paper
" to find out where you are Last night? "
The young man thought /> they will become stars,
and actually they do stars in one movie.
Walking down the road, suddenly we hear,
"Guys, all of you, you guys!
"Can you enter our film?
" Please be in my movie. "
We don't know who he is, and he, he is Madonna.
They stand beside and glance at it.
Soon we get a shared apartment,
apartment triplets.
Triplet apartments.
It's like if you have the most single apartment
three times.
Liquor store used to send liquor,
At one point Eddy had appendicitis.
He had no insurance.
And he checked to the hospital as Bobby.
And the appendix was taken as Bobby.
I hope to this day Bobby appendicitis remains healthy.
Between working together, < br /> playing together,
going out together, going on a date together,
living together,
from the moment we meet until... till later
nothing, nothing can make us separate.
I feel like I am first serious girlfriend.
At first I couldn't really differentiate them
and I would meet them
and I wasn't very sure
which I was before /> going out with, so...
Bob has this very raw, natural, type of intelligence
which I think I'm also interested in.
I always thought David was the best, right,
of the three of them. </ P>
I, I said before, you know,
"I can choose garbage." </ P>
Without a doubt, Eddy is, er... handsome
of the three triplets, you know.
Of course, I'm partial
but, you know, I adore it.
When I met him, he was the last person.
The Casanova of the three and, er... I said,
"Boy, this guy <
But he is so warm in his smile
and he is so amazing beautiful hands, soft hands
and when I shake his hand I mean, I just, I...
You know, I just fell in love with him.
I am from large colorful Irish Catholic Family
and he is a Jewish man.
When he came home for the first time,
he saw my father and he said,
"I don't know if you know this, Mr. Stanley,
" I've seen Brenda pretty much every night
"From day one I met him. "
And I thought," My God,
"My father knows that, you know, we are together every night. "
And my father is only a son, you know, looking at me like," OK "
and that's Eddy.
- & apos; I want. & apos; - & apos; I'm willing. & apos;
& apos; We love you. & apos;
Everyone loves her.
If there is a scale , Bobby will be protected by law,
David will be in the middle of
and Eddy fair which is fun, soft,
huggable, funny,
You know, he just emitted warmth and love.
'Jamie dulu Thanksgiving bersama Ayah. '
- & apos; Hi, see who is here. & apos; - & apos; Yes father. & apos;
& apos; ; and for special ones guest appearances. <
"Happy birthday, dear Jamie"
"Happy birthday"
She likes family gatherings.
You know , Eddy really, really loved
was around David and Bobby. </ P>
Eddy seemed to get the most results of the three met. </ P>
For whatever reason.
He wants his brothers and he has a beautiful life
and everyone gets along
and he wants everyone < br /> being a big family.
Eddy really the driving force
in terms of leading the search for our biological mother.
He's a fever and he just wants to do it.
Dia demam dan dia hanya ingin melakukannya.
And Alan also demonstrates,
because it's fair interesting things to do.
We think what the chances are
have triplets born in New York
on July 12, 1961.
We know New York Public Library
Joint birth records.
We each grabbed a book
and went page by page, by page, by page. </ P>
And within a few hours, , "Bingo!"
Men, men, men. Three in a row.
All born July 12, 1961.
Right next to it, name behind the biological mother.
The first meeting was at the bar in like, 47th Street.
It was like, the local neighborhood watering hole
on the east side, and that's weird.
He tells his story about what happened.
Unfortunately not so romantic story.
He is a young girl.
Basically, prom nights knock down the type of item.
I don't think he ever forgets that fact
that he has triplets and must submit it.
You know, to us at 19,
you drink like a fish, you think you are invincible.
But we find it a little apprehensive
that he is pretty much following us, you know.
Eh... apples don't fall away from trees
and that's the tree, I'm not happy,
and we already have parents, so we meet him and that's fine.
Tapi dia tidak begitu tutup bagian dari hidup kita.
We are all young and start our marriage and career.
"Hi, welcome to Triplets."
& apos; David Kellman, Eddy Galland and Robert Shafran
& apos; are identical triplets. </ P>
& apos; Now they run New York restaurants are called,
& what else , you guessed, Triple, & apos;
& apos; WELCOME. Hello. Welcome, welcome. & apos;
We have lots of people coming for us.
They came to see the triplets.
They want to wait by one of the triplets.
We present vodka, frozen blocks of ice,
and we will get all roaming and dance.
Like this big party happened,
was like this big Mitzvah Bar.
& apos; Triplet became very successful
& apos; Has a restaurant
& apos; in the Soho district of New York City. & apos;
We have finished one million dollars in the first year.
That's when things are a bit funky.
In the mid 90's I started working on a story
for the magazine "The New Yorker"
about identical twins raised separately.
I always thought,
p>
"What does it feel like if you turn around
" One day's angle and you see yourself? "
In my research process,
I found this unclear scientific articles.
This is a reference to this secret study
where identical siblings have been separated.
for the purpose of this scientific experiment.
And these babies all come
from an adoption agency in New York City. </ p >
& apos; First thing that comes out of my mouth
& apos; is, "Are you adopted?"
That's me, this can't be real. & apos;
& apos; Separate twins at birth & apos;
& apos; Eddy and Robert and David reunited after 19 years. & apos;
& apos; Beautiful. & apos;
& apos; Blue collar family, middle class families
& apos; And more prosperous families. & apos;
& apos; adoptive parents must be told as much as that makes sense. & apos;
& apos; something is incorrect. & apos;
& apos; They broke up open a bottle of champagne
& apos; as if they had avoided bullets. & apos;
& apos; We were all adopted from Louise Wise. & apos;
& apos; Louise Wise. & apos;
& apos; And these babies all come from Louise Wise Services. & apos;
Lawrence Wright called me
and he told me all about experiments.
And I said, "This is like Nazis. "</ P>
It feels like reality hit like a tidal wave. </ P>
We are a science experiment. </ P>
These people separate us and study us like experimental mice.
We don't recognize this until it's placed on our faces.
Until it's in newsprint.
But there are hints in the past,
I remember from a very young age...
people will come home...
"Usually a young man and a young woman.
And they told me to take a test.
They did IQ tests, personality inventory tests,
they do eye-hand coordination tests.
I remember people coming to the house, after the test is finished,
square pegs and holes round, and the Rorschach ink block test.
"What does this mean to you?" such a thing.
Eddy told me that when he is younger,
he remembers people watching him and taking notes,
and they will ask him questions
and he will be frustrated with questions.
And he remembers they recorded it.
I remember shooting more than anything.
I remember once < br>> 8 mm super film taken from me
when I was on the swing, or on the slide.
Every time they came they were filmed.
Go up my bicycle, throw the ball,
and they want to see how many times can I,
you know, go to my pogo stick, rollerblading,
throw the frisbee, < br>> how to shoot and arrows,
You know, they caught my attention.
I appeared.
The things they did more complex when I'm getting older.
It's weird about that, I really don't understand
why they need it so often,
why they ask me all these questions.
Somewhere around the age of nine or ten
I started to be less comfortable with that,
and it's like, "Mom, do I still have to do this?
" Do I still have to do this? "
When our parents adopt us
they were each told that we were being followed
as part of a normal study
the development of adopted children, </ p >
They don't know that we have been separated.
The agency says children born in this time period
will all be normal study of adopted children.
And, as far as we know, that's all.
That this is new they will follow up
with all the kids and when we receive it.
You're talking about a group of people
who left and holding a baby
and doing a psychological test in a six-month-old baby,
and then going to another house to see his brother,
and then go to another house to meet his brother,
and do this for years and years and years
with knowledge full
that we are in a 100 mile radius.
And don't know each other.
It's only lip service.
Who would think of anyone going bad enough
to come with something like this?
In my research process,
I learned that the person really responsible for this research
is Dr. Peter Neubauer,
a very different psychiatrist in New York ,
Freud's archive director.
He was an Austrian refugee from the Holocaust
and he set up shop in New York and became , You know,
one of the great men of psychiatry in America.
What I learned was that person in Louise Wise's
agency separated identical siblings
p>
and then the team of scientists led by Neubauer
will follow them.
But it's not just the triplets.
There others.
After my article came out
another set of twins found themselves.
& apos; And here they are now.
p>
"I appreciate you coming on today's program. & apos;
- & apos; Our pleasure. & apos; - & apos; Paula and Elyse. & apos;
& apos; The story is amazing. What is the way to tell it? & apos;
& apos; It's a little darker from Disney movies.
& apos; I'm at home in my apartment in Brooklyn
& apos; With girls I am two years old,
& apos and the phone rings and I answer the phone
& apos; And it is an adoption agent.
£Ç £ We have news for you, You have twin brothers. </ P>
"And he is looking for you!" </ P>
& apos; both of you are editors of your high school papers,
& apos; you both go to film school. & apos;
& apos >
& apos; Our behavior is inherited. ? £Ç £
& apos; That's millions of dollars questions about this story. & Apos;
'dan saya bertanya kepada mereka, "Yah, mengapa kita dipisahkan? ΓÇ £
'Itu jutaan dolar pertanyaan tentang cerita ini. '
& apos; And they say, "To learn twins."
& apos; We feel our lives has been set
& apos; by researchers this scientific
& apos; who put their scientific needs,
& apos; research needs or desires, their career interests
& apos; before our needs , and our interests
& apos; and other twins and triplets separated. & apos;
No one is sure how many identical twins
were involved in this research.
I was told six to eight, but we don't really know.
When you have a study like this,
you usually produce the results
and you show how much the sample is
and all these things.
But this research was never published,
Which makes everything more interesting.
We have a lawyer
trying to get us some study notes.
We receive a small amount of information.
It's very dry, technical data,
doesn't really explain
on the reasons for the research. It's rubbish. </ P>
I don't know what the result is,
or if there are results because I've never seen them. </ P>
They are trying to hide what they do
from the people they do.
Why?
I mean, what is the purpose of that?
The research has never been published. Why?
My name is Natasha Josefowitz...
dan aku adalah Peter Neubauer Asisten peneliti.
So, come in. Do you want a cup of coffee?
Here are some of my friends.
Michelle Obama and me. She's very tall.
I'm like a small shrimp next to it,
I came to him here.
This is Obama three years ago,
and here he holds my latest hook.
I have to tell you. I said, "Barack, I love you."
He said, "Me too love you ", and she gave me a kiss on this cheek.
Yes. This is Robert Redford and Al Gore.
And this is Errol Flynn and I when I was 18 years old. </ P>
I thought he was booting. </ P>
Picasso. </ P>
When will we talk about twin studies?
I am a peripheral person. I only do rumors.
The first time I heard about twin studies,
it was only a dream < br /> in Peter's head.
What's he like & apos!!
Sexy, handsome, attractive.
The background is very Freudian.
Anna Freud, Freud's daughter,
will often be some and visit her.
She is very focused on the desire makes a difference
in the lives of children.
Peter began to think, isn't that interesting
to have a study of mothers
who want to give up their child.
Which happens to be identical twins
and then can be separated at birth?
If we can put it in two a completely different environment,
we will put it to a dilemma,
nature or nurture, forever.
Now you might think, "This is terrible, you know,
" how can you do this? "</ p >
You have to put yourself back in the late 50s and 60s.
This is not something that seems bad.
Nothing who said, "To take children apart, how terrible. "
It's not at all in anyone's mind.
This is a very pleasant time.
Psychology has just begun is a big problem
that everyone is talking about.
These are all terms research. An opportunity.
One of the great questions what science has asked
is "How do we become our people,
"how much nature versus how much parenting
" Forms us into people that we become? £Ç £
I did not go and do research. </ P>
But I will hear it because I am in the office. </ P>
What they found, extraordinary.
& apos; Our lives are parallel to a phenomenal level.
"That, that's ridiculous."
& apos; We all the same,
as soon as we start discussing our personality. & apos;
& apos; Personality is the same, our movements are the same. & apos;
& apos; We always talk at the same time. & apos;
& apos; you grew up in a different house? & apos;
Correct. than we think.
Saya tidak percaya itu akan terjadi sebanyak keturunan seperti itu,
itu lebih dari itu daripada yang kita pikirkan.
& apos; I will start a sentence and he will finish it. & apos;
"We all like Chinese food."
& apos; You are all wrestlers at one time? & apos;
& apos; Yes & apos;
- & apos; all of you smoke? & apos; - Yes. & apos;
& apos; Do you all smoke the same brand ? & apos;
& apos; Yes. & apos;
- & apos; Do you like the same color? & apos; - Yes. & apos;
& apos; What are their tastes for women, is that similar? & apos;
& apos; Yes. Certainly. & apos;
We moved to the behavior
that we were entirely unconscious.
& apos; both of you are editors of your high school papers,
& apos; you both go to film school.
& apos; don't know if you pay attention... & apos;
& apos; Our behavior is inherited. & apos;
It is annoying, we don't like that.
People don't like to hear, they say, "I have free will."
We prefer what we have some influence on our lives. </ p >
Don't you prefer to know that?
That's what you have some control over this
and find out, it's OK, no matter what you do.
So I think it disappoints people
to see how small the effect is they have,
how little control they have.
We don't like that, we fight that.
If the research conclusion was very shocking
and so shook the earth ,
why haven't you published your lesson?
There are many things we don't know.
We have a very provocative anecdote ,
but we don't know, we don't have the data.
I don't know what happened to the research.
I moved to Switzerland in the year 1965
and lost contact with what was happening. </ P>
All research must be seen. </ P>
This study is the first, and that is the last one,
it will never be done again, il will never be replicated.
It is monumental, this is a monumental research.
In terms of the motivation they use
to justify what they do,
I don't even care because, I...
It's not justified what they are doing. </ P>
Do you know what? </ P>
Come from the Holocaust,
Our family has knowledge
when you play with humans...
You did something very wrong.
And I really believe that because of this research,
these three boys didn't have a happy ending.
& apos; What are the similarities
& apos; you find what you have because you all grow up
& apos; -in your own household? & apos;
"We all smoke at the same time cigarettes when we meet,
& apos; We all wrestle in middle and middle school,
& apos; We all like the same food, er...
& apos; Our tastes for women are similar. & apos;
& apos /> surprising discovery? & apos;
& apos; Well, sometimes when you think
& apos; you're experiencing unique thoughts or ideas
'Yah, kadang ketika kamu berpikir
'Anda sedang mengalami pemikiran atau ide unik
& apos; and you go to share it with someone
& apos; and they say, "your brother just told me."
- & apos; It's a little annoying. & Apos; - & apos; That's funny. & Apos;
& apos; It's a little annoying, it's terrible. os
Being in business with my brothers
ruined our relationship.
There are conflicting work ethics,
and father I have died.
He really unites us together as a group
and keeps peace so to speak,
They start arguing < br /> like kids will argue, you know.
And they don't have it that opportunity,
the gift to be able to become a brother for 18 years.
When you live in a family of children
You learn how to adjust to each other.
If I don't like the way you do this, I can get angry,
or I can learn to compromise.
p>
But they meet as adults.
And never learn how to live with each other.
When everything goes, things becomes more complicated,
and because everything gets more complicated,
what finally happens is I go.
When Bobby leaves business
Eddy and I feel that we are betrayed. </ P>
Bobby feels that he is pushed out. </ P>
Either way, it's big, big damage on relationships.
I think it takes an extreme loll on Eddy
more than I think David and Bobby.
who just wants to have it everyone is at peace together,
and Eddy is very, very upset about that.
He is a bit ruined about that. It's eating it.
He really loves them,
and he wants his brothers to be together.
He's just not very sure how to deal with it all. </ P>
You only see more types of ups and downs,
erratic behavior. </ P> >
& apos; Eddy & apos; s grew up listening. & apos;
& apos; Fur face, that's me. & apos;
"Geez, wake the child up."
your father ran away. "
You only see more unnatural highs and lows.
He will call people and... in strange hours at at night,
then they will say,
"I haven't seen or heard from Eddy in ten years.
" Why did he pick up the phone and call me
"at two o'clock < br /> in the morning? "
You know, that is, it is a sign.
This is just... this is more
than just someone who needs counseling.
This, like, really something very, very serious.
He can be very charming.
& apos; Hello? & apos;
But downswing A lot of anger.
Er... only deep and deep darkness .
Bead depression
I think that's what they finally said.
That makes sense behind
I don't walk in the hallway
think, you know,
"I have a man who suffers from from manic depression."
People will say, "How can you not know?", but...
he is very unique and very beautiful and special,
You just... it's Eddy, you know.
I was told that he needed to be in... a facility.
I mean, I feeling that bad I made him experience this trauma
went to the psychology ward
because I was in psychology ward and I knew how difficult it was. </ p >
When I was a kid, I spent 16th birthday on the psychology ward.
We were all really bullied by children.
We were all here under psychiatry cares when we are teenagers.
We are all very challenging
and the years of dysfunctional teenagers.
Can we ask about the person?
One of you is involved in murder,
Is that true?
It's up to you.
No no.
People Magazine...
One of them is accused of being involved in murder.
And that's me,
who never met this person who was killed,
was never present or something.
It's peer pressure.
Friends press me to cover them,
tell a story for them to the police
and it pulls me into it.
I have never hurt anyone even in my life.
We know that, we can feel it.
We can feel it.
Many people in this study had a childhood dysfunctional
and some mental problems
and that raises the question, you know.
If you are a human who has devoted your life,
like Dr. Neubauer to study mental illness ,
then that is the factor that you examined?
& apos; The story is amazing. This is a Disney movie. & apos;
& apos; It's a little darker from Disney movies. & apos;
When we first met, we realized we had all of these equations,
we had the same behavior,
both of us have studied film.
And then we also know
both of us have suffered from from depression.
So, this is the letter
I received from Louise Wise Services.
"You were born at 12.51 noon on October 9, 1968,
"to a 29-year-old Jew single woman.
" He's very smart with a high IQ.
"He went to college with an achievement scholarship
"But an emotional problem interrupted his presence,
" He has a history of voluntary hospital care
"for emotional problem.
"Although I haven't been able to find
" genuine medical reports, secondary sources are recorded
"That's a diagnosis your mother is schizophrenia. "
It was very disturbing to read that my biological mother
had entered and left the institution.
I started to find out more
about the other twins and the triplets in this study,
and it turned out that not only had a lot of them
struggling mentally health problems.
But that their biological parents had mental health problems.
And their host family never told.
How is it possible
that your mother has mental health problems?
Er... I don't think they bad.
L, I think he, er...
He might have some minor, small problems, er...
He might have a few, little a little more than a small problem. </ P>
Do scientists deliberately choose children
whose biological parents have mental illness,
and put it to a different home
to be seen, is a mental illness editable.
Eddy is there in the hospital
because I think it's three weeks.
And then he returns to work in the restaurant.
I'm not there. David is with him, all the time.
I am think maybe he could give you better details about it.
I'm running the kitchen.
Eddy isn't there. I'm running the kitchen,
he ran the front of the house.
That's how it works.
And I don't know where he is, and he lives across the street.
So, David called me from the restaurant
and he asked me to look out the window
to see Is Eddy 's car in the driveway,
because if you're in the driveway,
we know he's at home.
So, the car it's on the entrance,
and I say to David, er...
"Do you want me go there?"
And David said, "Yes."
And he called me back a few minutes later
and his voice trembled and trembled.
He said, "You have to go home."
And I said, "Why ? "
And he said," Please, you just returned home. "
Er...
And me, er... I stopped we stayed across the road.
I stopped, sort of, just... the police car was all there
and I just sort , stop... you know,
block halfway, leave the door open
and start running home
and the police arrested me and they won't let me in.
They say, "You don't, you don't want to see this.
" You can't see this, you don't want to see this.
"You, you don't want to see this." </ P>
And that's when I knew he was leaving. </ P>
I told Bobby, "I need to talk to you."
And as if he was, he knew a little.
He knew a little earlier those words came out of my mouth.
Eddy killed yourself.
Eddy shot himself.
He saw his own life.
I don't remember who told us. I only remember darkness .
Buried on Father's Day, I gave a speech,
and I don't remember everything I said,
but I remember ever saying that my brother Eddy
can illuminate the room with a smile.
Why Eddy? Why Eddy? Why not me?
I have asked myself myself a hundred times.
I prefer it to me than Eddy.
I, I don't know why Eddy and why not me.
Maybe it's just because...
I don't know, I just don't know.
I, I, can't answer this.
Thank you , Bobby. </ P>
You're welcome. </ P>
I want to know the truth about experiments. </ P>
My understanding, in small groups of twins this
is separated and studied,
there are more than one suicide.
It is almost impossible just to be a coincidence.
>
Given Eddy's mental illness...
If they have something conclusive
which in any way predicts anything in the future
I need to know, I want to know about that.
There are still many we don't know.
I have more questions than I have an answer.
One of the things about being a journalist
is that you don't know what you will find. </ P>
Sometimes you know what you don't know
that is frustrating likes this story.
Well, I don't understand to the bottom
because I never get it to see the research.
Like no one knows, you know.
That will be the basis.
But that's why > this is very tempting.
Here's the research I saved
from when I was writing about twins.
It's been a long time since that I've seen this box.
This is interesting.
Mini tapes.
Before he died, I managed to talk to Dr. Neubauer.
He was reluctant ,
he never talked about it As far as I know.
Alright, let's see what he said.
& apos; OK , I understand now.
& apos; How did this research occur? & apos;
& apos; I say to you,
& apos; I prefer don't want to talk about it. & apos;
& apos; Very? Why? & apos;
& apos; Until we have published it. & apos;
& apos; -When did you plan to publish it? & apos;
& apos; Well, maybe, we will publish
& apos; in about a year, one and a half years from now. & apos;
He must be hard to understand,
he protects something.
& apos; Okay, tell a little about the scope of the research
& apos; and how many people are involved in it? & apos;
& apos; The study was only based on a small number
& apos; identical twins separated at birth,
& apos; for many, many reasons.
"I don't want to talk about that now.
" We have to stop it because it becomes too expensive. "</ p >
& apos; Who is it your main support? "
& apos; Some personal family foundations.
& apos; We have money from Washington. & apos;
& apos; GOOD. & apos;
Private charity and Washington, what does that mean?
And I don't know where their funding comes from.
& apos; OK, thanks again for your time. & apos;
& apos; Congratulations stay!
I think that there is very sensitive
about this story.
There are many strong people
who want to have this story silenced.
What happened to the research
as far as you know?
Before Neubauer died in 2008,
he left all the research material
in the archive at Yale University.
Neubauer put it under the seal, for decades and decades. </ p >
As far as I know no one can access it.
Er... what do we have here?
Wow.
Study Notes for Adoption Guide
Child Development Center.
66 boxes containing information:
charts, films, and cassettes and findings research.
Home visit, that's the big one.
He said that the date of the study came from 1960 to 1980.
I think reunion we, kind of close the study.
"Information about access.
" Records are limited to to 2066. "
It's sealed!
So, they do everything they do
to have this whole list
in a dusty library somewhere, where nothing can touch it.
"Researchers hope to use this note
" before this date must be safe
"Written authorization from Jewish Council
"Family and Children Services."
Jewish Council is the parent organization
Child Development Center run by Peter Neubauer .
My understanding is that
they are very, very strong organization
very deeply political connections,
>
& apos; Thank you for calling
& apos; Jewish Family Council and Children's Services. & apos;
& apos; Hello!
Yes, hi. My name is is David Kellman, er...
and it turns out , I was an one of the subjects of a study,
run by Child Development Center a few years ago,
and it was saved in Yale University. </ P>
- Yes? & Apos; - And on their website it says
to get access to that note,
and somehow the receptionist made me for you.
& apos; GOOD. Er...
"I don't know that stuff or during the research,
& apos; but I can... & apos;
Have there are a number of journalists
and as far as I know, some of the twins
involved in this research
who have tried to get access to this material.
As far as I know they cannot see
the results of this study.
Is there a way all I can do directly to someone
will be able to to give me access,
because I am one of the subjects in research this?
If anyone has the right to see all this material,
those are the real people
research subjects.
They must know what is learned.
"I mean, I don't know
>
& apos; who will be the person to ask now.
& apos; I will need to see that. & apos;
Okay, so you're the first line defense, so to speak.
"I guess, yes."
OK, I will send you an email. I will place in the subject line,
will become, er... "Twin Study".
& apos; Get you!
Louise Wise Services <
Peter Neubauer died.
But we still don't know exactly
what they are looking for, or what they found.
and I am an assistant researcher in Peter Neubauer's study.
I believe I was the only person
who worked in this research
who wants
to continue to record
about what has been done.
I am 24 years old.
This is basically my first job.
You know, you have to be careful not to let that, er...
"Wow, you see like You, your twin brother. "</ P>
I'll be fired in place, right? </ P>
It's a little tempting, yes,
is there, there is < a little temptation.
It's like, "Hey, me, I know your twin.
" I saw someone a week ago which was exactly like you. "
The question is whether I feel guilty is interesting
because I never felt a responsibility.
I came after this was designed.
However, I am a participant,
so you can say I was ethically compromised by that.
In retrospect, I think that is undoubtedly wrong ethically.
I got a few notes here. GOOD.
This is my real original note,
the copy of the psychology I did.
And who entered, who entered especially in these files?
Well, I have the triplets.
We start .
I, I won't mention name. but, er...
"He's a hard and energetic boy.
p>
"It takes to show off,
" both his intelligence and his strength,
"and demeaning others including his parents." </ p >
Yes, this one is excited to show off his new bike
and all his sports equipment when I record it.
He is very intense in his game
and quite... rough.
This child has a problem.
Hyper aggressiveness.
Okay, apparently,
his parents are unconscious
the problems, they also can't help him
understand the weaknesses
and build more appropriate > control over his actions.
So, I don't think parents are highly sought after
for the struggle this youngster is experiencing.
Apa temuannya studi?
I don't know because I left the study room after 10 months
and the results have never been published,
Everything I have is my little, < small pieces.
This is a mystery, it's a big loss.
All this important scientific data
is only buried in this archive.
>
So, some people speculate
that the purpose of this study is, the final goal,
is looking at mental health.
I am.... there is, there has never been mention of mental health
from biological parents when I am in the study.
We are not interested in mental health,
it's not we are interested.
We are looking for for differences in care.
and how it will affect development.
So, you say they are more interested
in family dynamics?
But they can't do it know that. They don't know
how the family will interact
with this newly adopted child. </ p >
The only way they might know
about family dynamics
is if they already have children placed in that family. </ p >
& apos; Another coincidence that
& apos; in this story are each brother
& apos; Raised in their family with relatives women lift,
& apos; All girls are now 21 years old. <
The triplets, they all have older siblings.
They are placed in the family
where there are older adopted children
who have been placed with, by Louise Wise.
That's part of the design.
It's nice to meet you.
I just like to show you clips.
This is Lawrence Perlman, who A researcher in this study.
& apos; What happened research findings?
& apos; I don't know because they were never published .
& apos; We are looking for for differences in care.
"We want to understand childcare practices
& apos; and how it will affect development.
& apos; The triplets placed in the family
& apos; Where there are older adopted children
& apos; That has been placed with, by Louise Wise.
"That's part of the design."
How do you feel watching it?
Like a lab rat.
That only makes it a lot... it's just...
That just makes it...
- That's much worse. - Much more double-faced.
Er...
They not only study children,
but they are studying parents. </ P>
So, they actually know parenting style of every parent.
So, this is not, you know...
Obviously it's far from random choices.
They know exactly who they choose
to place each of us when they call Gallands,
and Kellmans, and Shafrans.
In terms of how they care for their children
three families
enough, very different.
David's father stands out.
No one in this world is like his son.
He is very proud of him . Whatever he did was extraordinary.
Bobby's father was very busy as a doctor
and did not have time with Bobby
p>
that David's father has,
but just as loyal to him as possible.
The most traditional thing is Eddy's father... </ p >
which is rather tight. He is the boss.
He made the rules and Eddy should follow.
Eddy's relationship with his father...
that can't be good.
And that's important.
And why did you say it couldn't be good?
Because if not, I will know it,
we will see it,
This is the last picture We once owned Edward.
He was very gregarious.
He entered all things young men.
He damaged the car
and some things like that, but...
I mean, sometimes I discipline him.
Eddy and his father are very different from people. </ P>
Eddy is more artistic, a little kid, You know, he doesn't like sports. </ P>
Elliott has a very Strong militaristic
type of approach to life, very traditional.
He is a teacher, he is all about punctuality.
I am a strict disciplinary,
and my children unfortunately
have me as strict discipline too.
Eddy says he always kind of doesn't feel
like he matches his family.
He always feels like, likes he is not in the right place.
How much do you have sense
that Edward is unhappy?
He did not discuss his problems with me.
We are a rather quiet family.
We are not tell our problems with each other.
We protect each other. It's a good family.
Some people just don't match.
It wasn't his father's fault.
Elliot did what he believed to be the best as a parent.
They were just different people.
p>
I got a phone call from... I believe that is Bobby.
And he told me to sit
and I said there was no need.
And then stand there
I go to my wife
and tell Edward to her has committed suicide.
And we standing there long enough, crying.
And... that's it.
I often wonder if that I didn't teach him something .. .
because of the way he went.
I don't know.
Maybe I didn't teach him something,
how to live a life or something.
That bothers me occasionally.
Why is the life of a boy really different?
I don't need to read any hooks,
I don't need to read any studies.
I saw it directly with these three boys.
It's all about parenting.
p>
& apos; They all sit in the same position. & apos;
We found many similarities
because that's what people are looking for.
They smoke the same as types of cigarettes.
You say, "My God,
& apos; They smoke Marlboros, that's amazing. & apos;
What are you not looking for < > their differences.
& apos; I can't forget it, I tell you.
"You all wrestle at one time? & apos;
& apos; Yes. & apos;
We found the way that we are the same
and we emphasize and we want to be similar.

Maybe there are still twins out there
who still don't know they are twins.
There may be at least four individuals
who were the subject of this study
who did not know that they had twin brothers.
If they knew it was there still twins out there
were lost in life, it shocked the mind.
There are two ways think about it.
These people really need to know that there is a twin,
or, "Oh my God, these people /> shouldn't know
"that they are used this way, which will make them very upset. "
Maybe this is why research can't be published yet,
until they leave.
Il really opens up the possibility.
