The story : In 1980 , Robert "Bobby" Shafran drove himself for his first day as a freshman to Sullivan Community College in New York.
Once arriving on campus and making his way to the dorm Bobby found himself being approached by many other students who appeared to know him and calling him Eddy...
Although he had never seen any of these people before in his life and had no idea who Eddy was.
After arriving to his room , there was a knock on the door.
Upon opening the door the guy who was standing there in front of Bobby could not believe his eyes.
He was seeing his friend Eddy Galland , who was previously at the college but was not coming back.
Apparently Bobby was Eddy's double.
The guy asked Bobby's birth date. 
It was the same as Eddy's. 
Then if he was adopted. 
Yes , also the same as Eddy...
Eddy's friend could not believe it and called him right up.
He told Bobby that he was positive that Eddy was his twin brother!
The three met and sure enough , Bobby and Eddy were twins.
Soon they could be seen in new paper articles together.
When a few friends of David Kellman seen and read the articles , they were like , 'Is that David?!?'
