MEETING YOUR DOUBLE AT 30,000 FEET
Having seatmates can be the most irritating part of air travel. Spending a few hours next to
a chatty stranger or a noisy eater can really be a passenger’s worst nightmare. But what
would you do if you sat down next to… yourself?
That’s just what happened to Neil Thomas Douglas, a Scottish photographer travelling to
Ireland. 5.1. _____ What he couldn’t know was that Robert Stirling, a 35-year-old civil
servant from Redbridge, who was sitting there, wasn’t actually supposed to be in that seat.
5.2. _____ As Mr Douglas asked the other man if he would let him take the window seat,
things took a funny turn. The moment Mr Stirling raised his head, Mr Douglas noticed that
the man bore a striking resemblance to him. Lee Beattie, who accompanied Mr Douglas on
the trip, said they all had a laugh about it and everyone around them was amused, too.
5.3. _____ In it, you could see two strangers looking so strikingly similar that you might want
to start playing “spot the difference”. Social media users expressed surprise and even
disbelief that the two men weren’t related.
However, the coincidences didn’t stop with that chance encounter on the airplane. 5.4. _____
Lee Beattie says both men shared another joke about it and parted ways. Some might say
that two such encounters in a day were enough, but there was still more to come. Later that
night, Mr Douglas decided to go to a local pub, The Quays. And just imagine, his ‘twin’ was
there, too. 5.5. _____ That one, however, clearly showed that, despite their facial similarities,
Mr Douglas is a little older than Mr Stirling.
