I actually never noticed this but I do have a memory of my husband saying "Those science guys are in a really good band," which is making more sense now.
😂
LOL
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s hilarious 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
i love that they met up and actually took a dna test
i agree it is such a strange thing for them to do but seems like it would be loads of fun
They have similar haircuts but once side by side don't actually look the same
@@mendeleusxiii5147 ? that’s not what the comment was abt
@@everythingellieandaustinse6068 Sure, it wasn't perfect but I'd still watch a second season of Obi wan kenobi
Probably swapped DNA too tbh
I was gonna say, "You both may look alike, but you have a unique personality," . . . but then I watched you both interact! 😆
As a mother of identical twins I could tell them apart from day 1 without fault. Their father them mixed up occasionally. Yes, it's uncanny how alike, yet how different, they look to me.
I knew some mothers like you and I really don't understand how does that work.
Would you say you can tell from a physical picture without context or is it more you can tell from their mannerisms?
That's amazing! I babysat identical twins for years and none of the other babysitters that their family tried could tell them apart. For me, it was just a way to get to know them better.
I don't know if I could explain the physical differences, but I noticed one's face seemed boxier to me, and the other one was quieter but quicker to get excited about things.
I learned a lot from working with them and they even invited me to be with their family at their graduation. I'm really glad they asked me.
I hope your twins find lots of people who appreciate their similarities and differences.
My youngest brothers are twins, and I still have trouble sometimes. I see the differences, between these 2 fairly big though, the guy from pentatonix looks like joel mchale though
My mom put wristbands on me and my twin, cuz no one could see who was who 😂. Now it is really simple, I have a beard, my brother don’t.
Where's the unlocking each other's phone with Face ID ? That would have been a great test to see whether your phones also agree that your faces look alike.
i don't think it would work their actual face shapes arent that similar
They look the similar because our brains are faulty. The phones use mathematical ratios to recognize the persons face. Our minds use raw approximations.
They don’t look similar. I am now thinking why people think they look similar
@@Kathakathan11 i thought it was just me! they just have similar hairstyles.
I have seen face id fail and succeed on same actual twins on different phones..
When Science and The Arts meet, it's a thing of beauty.
The systems that run the world we live in are artistic in a way, with the design, watching the systems operate. It can be very, very beautiful
Well said 💛
The BEAUTY of the rainbow 🌈
@Don't Read My Profile Photo ok, robot.
@Don't Read My Profile Photo ok now what?
This video exists. I can die in peace now.
Seeing Scott being this sassy, I love you even more now hahahaha
Love this sooo much. I am still cracking up that it said Scott had “normal” musical ability. Lol
Haha yeah...not the best commercial on the legitimacy of that test for sure, haha.
I find it hilarious too that you both have a Mitch in your lives, that also look pretty similar lol
That makes this even better.
It's the best part really
I think the likeness and the similarities are also due to similar socio economics environments. People tend to have similar taste, names, clothes etc etc in socio economic groups
I kinda look like mitch
that’s literally the reason i (as a non viewer of both, only saw and heard of them occasionally) thought they were the same person for SO LONG
I've never mixed you two up before, but I've always loved both of y'all's work. This friendship seems so wholesome. Hopefully there can be more collabs in the future!!? 💛
I wonder if there’s something science related with acapella that could be investigated. Perhaps looking at what goes into creating certain sounds with your mouth and your voice to emulate instruments
Yeah, I don't think they look that similar at all. I think it is mostly just the hairstyle, color and beard, and everything else looks different.
@@robo_t Yeah that is a cool idea! Also Mitchell is a talented singer so that would be right up their alley!
Same here - Never mixed them up before
I bet they hook up to go on the town a few more times, it would be a head turner, and whatever happens later, behind closed doors is their own business, as it should be, not anyone else's. Although.. I'd think they'll ???????
I've always thought you two looked similar, but I never thought you were the same person. It was fun to see you guys interact!
I've actually met my doppelganger! We are the same age, we used to play soccer together, and played the same positions. We were so similar that one of us would be on the field and the other on the bench and our parents would cheer for the wrong person! I remember my mom specifically cheering for me only for me to be standing on the side line 10 feet away. She literally told me she would know it was me or not based on the hair ties we wore! Imaging your mom not being to tell you apart!
Now that we've both grown up we've of course grown into our facial features, so we don't look SO similar anymore, but the likeness is still there!
I think if my mother had done something like that I would have taken the opportunity to sneak up on her and say something like, "What are you cheering about?" just to see the momentary confusion on her face.
In 23andme you can actually compare two DNAs and find shared regions, this would be more interesting!
All people are related, the question is only how far is the common ancestor.
Did the Mitchs disappear? That's one of the things that made people confuse them back in the day. They both have a Mitch closely associated with them.
And the Mitches look kinda similar too
holy shiiitt. you guys are right😂😂😂
Omg 😱🤯🤯
@@abolishice591 Well, one of them changes looks so much I have trouble even recognising him on his own X-D
I could see how I could get you two mixed up scrolling through TikTok, but I don't think you two look much alike other than coloring and basic similarities. Together though you both behave very close to eachother, so I could see you two being related for sure.
coloring like they're some palette 💀
Well I think they definitely built on eachother as they interacted
I wonder if the algorithm also recognized their eerie similarities. Perhaps one of them gets recommended to fans of the other? 🤔
The funniest part is that both have a partner called Mitch. When I first found you, I thought for a second Superfruit had gone into science.
WAIT WH-
this reminds me of those stories where doppelgängers reportedly meet each other and have the same fashion sense and PARTNERS WITH THE SAME NAME. i'm pretty sure there have been multiple cases of this
@@Envy_May Also, both of their partners look a lot alike too.
To be completely fair, Scott and Mitch (Superfruit) are not dating. But they are working partners.
You definitely have similar energy - I can see how people would mix up your personalities. Looks like you had a fun day. Do a paternity test next!
PS: He's taller than you, but wow, that is ALSO creepy. And now that I think back, I met my mom's doppelganger in the mall once when I was a little, little kid. I think I'd lost her somewhere, and I went up to this lady who looked exactly like her, but she didn't even talk to me. I think I started crying till my real mom came and found me.
Must've gotten weird nightmares after that
@@jjaa_joyjoyartist, not that I remember, but I don't remember my dreams all that often anyway.
Wow, that would be traumatic for a kid! But what would've been even worse is if your mom had pretended she was her long lost twin sister, hence your aunt. 😆
@@ActiveAdvocate1 wow I’m so sorry :( if that was me I’d at least try to comfort the kid and look for a security guard or anyone that could help
How did your mom react to meeting her doppelgänger?
Today's fact: The term 'footage' comes from films being measured in feet, when being edited in the early days of film making.
Interesting fact, no doubt.
Though wouldn’t it make sense to share a fact that pertains to the subject of the video? Like a fact about genetics, identical twins, or maybe other cases of doppelgängers
This is another cultural fossil, like the icon on the save buttom still being a floppy disc, or how an email icon is an envelope even though no one sends letters anymore
@@moukidelmar People do still send letters, though definitely not as much. There is something about letters - even emails - compared to instant messaging
Wow I had no idea about this. Love your Snapple facts
Another interesting "unit of measurement of length" based idiom is "the whole nine yards," which related to the length of ammunition belts for .50 caliber machine guns mounted in bombers/gunships. If you were in a serious battle, and used up an entire belt of ammunition, you might say of the enemy thag you "gave them the whole nine yards" of ammunition. I heard a story somewhere (don't remember where) about Jimmy Stewart reacting badly to that phrase after fighting in WW2. I'll see if I can find it sometime soon.
So I have partial facial blindness, but I’m really good at telling twins apart. I once dated a twin who everyone else said they looked completely identical, but to me, I could immediately tell them apart just with a glance.
The more time you spend around twins the more immediately obvious it becomes who is who. I grew up knowing two sets of identical twins at school, and while they looked alike at first, as a kid you learned real fast who was who and wound up feeling the difference was huge. But then again kids are sponges for knowledge, older non-faceblind people will have a lot harder time time learning than kids of the same.
I knew I needed this collab
You guys might not be the same DNA but you have chemistry for sure 😂
As friends, sure they do!
@@RosheenQuynh *Friendship Montage* 👯♂️
@@L3onking heheh
Maybe they are roommates?
@@abcxyz-ms7bf No lol
I apparently have a doppelganger in this city who even has the same first name as me. Discovered this when a cashier became very excited to see me, called me by name and immediately started catching me up on her life. She saw my expression and said "You are *name* from *high school*, right?" And I responded with "*Name*, yes. But *very different high school*." It was very very strange
As an armchair psychologist who graduated from CZcams University, I am sorry to inform you that you only have Unimaginative Multiple Personality Disorder. Sufferers of this condition create multiple personalities, albeit with less imaginative names.
I love watching Greg and Scott together. We need more content!!
My full-blood sister and I have completely different ancestry results to the point we wondered if we were only half-siblings. The DNA test (not the one advertised here) clarified our relationship. The ancestry results can't be relied on to say if you're related to someone or not. The results of the men in the video were far more similar than ours.
Maybe you have to have a talk with your parents.
Omg, finally, it's being acknowledged... I've been calling you guys "Science Superfruit" for forever... It's only recently dawned upon me that that's a little degrading😂😂😅😁
Science Superfruity
Nawww it’s a COMPLIMENT
@@robo_t HAHAHA that's a good one
@Don't Read My Profile Photo I've already did, now I feel bad so I'l stop reading and respect ur privacy
One thing I think is strange is how people who know me irl will send me photos of people on occasion "I thought this was you!!" And I'm so confused. It begs the question of how we perceive ourselves vs how others see us, but I also have body dysmorphia so the objective viewing of myself is also not really... Possible.
Okay LOVED this and the matching energies 😂 I was smiling watching you guys the whole time 🥹💕
I love their chemistry when they met, they clicked immediately. Both of them not only look same but they have similar personalities. It’s insane
I find it pretty weird how much leniency peoples' brains allow when identifying individuals. I always thought it was odd that people struggled to tell the difference between me and my brother when - in my mind - we look pretty distinctive, and the same again here. You two don't look that similar to me. I definitely see SOME similarities and if I was told you were brothers, I'd probably fall for it, but there's no way I'd easily mistake one of you for the other.
For you it maybe difficult to notice similarities or differences between you and your brother since u don't really know how your face looks through naked eyes.
U have just seen your face through mirrors, cameras and reflections which actually give slightly different images
I agree, I've never confused them before, but people have varying levels of ability for facial recognition and we are probably on the higher end of the spectrum. My boyfriend seems to rely a lot on face shape and jaws for identifying people, so he often confuses celebrities, but he has a friend who has full on prosopagnosia and is sometimes startled by his own reflection because he can't identify even his own face.
@@absurd3694 Honestly, we actually just don't look that similar.
We did as children - we were almost identical back then - but as we've grown up a lot about us has changed in different ways and people still mistake us.
Yeah their jaw and chin is pretty different hair and beard color+style and overall headshape is what makes them similar
@@SamuraiPipotchi your remind me of my classmates
Twins who looked so similar when they were kids
The only way to identify them was by looking at their identity cards
And now we all just finished our high school
And now they really dont look similar at all
I think that happened to you and your brother
Altho i think its competitively rare but i think you and your brother might fit in that case
You guys don't really have many superficial similarities, a more accurate doppelganger surely exists for both of you, making this a contest and doing another round of dna tests would be more scientifically interesting and informative.
Oooh that would be fun 😅
@Milan Velky W T F
I see more of Garret Watts in him and Scott's doppelganger is Bobby Berk.
@Milan Velky That we know of.
@Don't Read My Profile Photo okay
Loved this. Thank you for meeting and sharing your awesome personalities with us !! Truly enjoyed every moment of this video omg.
I have never been more jealous of Greg than I was when I saw him hug Scott.
Wow this is such a fun concept. You guys look alike but I feel like there’s someone out there who looks more like you. Such a good video 😅
He barely looks like the singer and the singer barely looks like him. I used to have a friend who could have been his brother or fraternal twin. It was part of why I subscribed to this channel.
this video was the thing I really didn’t know I needed, I was smiling all the way thru
That was interesting and fun. Thank you. Anytime I can see Scott, it makes my day better.
Amazing collab! Please do more videos like this please!! You guys have great energy together!
You both look as similar as any one of the same family or clan. Not doppelgangers. I did find the scientific aspect of this interesting. This was a fun video to watch.
Absolutely love Scott haha never realized how similar yall looked until today
Growing up with friends who were twins I think made me more aware of facial differences. Really cool video.
You two are so great together and I decree that if you want to call yourselves brothers, you may!✌
I've been called by my aunt's name before out in public, and I've been told we look so much alike. We have similar voices and mannerisms, even though I grew up not really knowing her until she moved back to Newfoundland when I was in my 20s. So, yes, genetics play a huge role.
Y’all really don’t look that identical. Small resemblance
Yeah I agree honestly, maybe like cousins or something but definitely not close enough to be doppelgangers
Finally someone said it
It's not supposed to be identical
@@snakebite002 I mean doppelganger in this context typically refers to someone who is near enough identical to you, whereas these two have very different facial features imo. Just similar hairstyle, beard, hair/beard colour, and are white
The test couldn't tell them apart. Evidence? Musical ability 😂
I enjoyed this so much!
when i was a teenager superfruit and asap science were my fav channels 😭 have been waiting for this video since like 2016! i think i can officially say my life is complete.
Never in my life did I think you and Scott looked similar. Honestly, I still don't see it. In my eyes you don't even look like cousins, so this whole video was a weird experience. Not to invalidate your experience of course. Love you both!
Same
10:55
Both of yall are awesome so this is just great
This was freaking awesome and hilarious. Great video
I've been mistaken for someone in my neighborhood several times... supposedly we look almost identical. Never met them, but I'm so curious now 😆
I'm in a similar situation which I described in more detail in another post.
I met my doppleganger at a college summer program. He had the same nose, same haircut, same skin tone, same voice, slightly different eyes and cheek bones. However, we got confused for each other a handful of times. One day I wasn't wearing my identification lanyard (which, if you have 6 offenses of this you get sent home early) and a college-student-chaperone was going to ask Raul, my doppleganger, something, so she got my attention, thought I was Raul and almost got him in trouble because she thought I was Raul. I had to bite the bullet for my bro.
This video is interesting AND funny! I'm glad you got to meet your Doppelganger
I’m so glad y’all did this! I traveled around as a kid and met two boys who had the same name, age, birthday and face weren’t related. They also had siblings the same age too, but one had a sister and the other a brother.
Traveled around some more and met 3 guys who looked the same but differed ethnically. Because of those instances, I became so fascinated by genetics.
I've never met my doppelganger--legend has it that EVERONE has an evil/good twin, depending on which one you are--but the guy I've crushed on for, like, ten years, I SAW, but didn't speak to, his doppelganger at my college back when I was still a student, and in my head, I was like, "Hey, it's--oh wait...". It was CREEPY.
When I was younger I used to hear from people that they knew someone who looked just like me, also I met a girl from another country who was maybe even a little more similar to me than you and Scott, and our childhood pictures were identical! We also managed to fool some people who only knew her and they had a full conversation with me thinking it was her!!! That was insane
Omgosh you two are basically like best friends! This video was so fun!
Omg I can't believe you two actually did a collab!! I love you both so much!
My Doppelgänger was Anne Frank when I was younger (late elementary school and middle school); I really thought that they had taken a photo of me when I first saw her and all my classmates started joking about me being her “resurrected”. I’m 25 now and currently waiting for my DNA results. Let’s see. Tragic look alike stories. I wish her all the best wherever* she is now ❤️
*Since there’s people who clearly don’t understand English or pretend they don’t, I’m talking about the afterlife, whether it exists or not. It’s that simple. People have stopped reading books, I see.
yeah, about that last sentence...
@@azndrumsticks literally what
Uh..
@@azndrumsticks What’s wrong about it? Even if the afterlife wasn’t a thing, I wish her all the peace she deserves. Are you one of those people who see problems everywhere they go? The world is full of those now.
@@MorriSash I'm going to assume they thought you meant she's still alive somewhere, which is a fair conclusion to reach based on what you said. I don't think they were trying to be hurtful, just confused about your wording.
A bigger collab than anything Marvel could throw at us hahah... Loved the video!
I love that they wore matching outfits! I would love to see more collaborations in the future 🥺
Really interesting about the face identification. My son and I are both autistic and suffer from pretty bad face blindness. He has aphantasia so he doesn't really have mental images anyway. He recognizes me most of the time but in a crowd he'd struggle to pick me out. He really struggles to recognize his sister outside of the normal environment, so like if she surprised him and picked him up at school (he's 17) he wouldn't see her until she spoke to him. It's pretty debilitating for him socially.
I know I don't have face blindness, but when I encounter someone I know in an unfamiliar context (like seeing a former coworker at a grocery store), I don't always "see" them unless they speak to me. If they're wearing a mask it's worse. I've had entire conversations with people at the grocery store whom I know I know (often more by the familiarity of their voice), but I can't place them right away because they're masked and I haven't seem them in a few years.
I don’t think I’ve ever been this early to a video before, also I never realized how alike u guys look but wow
It’s only when I watched this video that I realize that they look alike. Ive known about both of them for years, I’ve seen their content, yet I was never aware of it. It’s so weird
The collab we’ve been waiting years for!!! Love y’all both so much and always thought you had similarities especially since y’all are both besties with a Mitch
The collab we needed to see!!!
Knew of Pentatonix/Scott, knew of AsapSCIENCE/Greg ... I never made the connection that they look similar or gotten them mixed up. Though I can see the resemblance now that they are put onscreen next to each other. I have been told by my friends that they keep running into my doppelgangers (multiple different ones) but they never introduce us. Makes me think their facial recognition skills are just really low.
ok question ab the DNA kits: I've always wanted to take a DNA test and figure out ancestry and all that other info but I'm so scared about a future where DNA is everything and could lead to higher insurance or being dragged into a crime I had no involvement in bc I'm the third cousin of the perpetrator, or the millions of other security concerns on handing your entire genetic code to a for profit company. any thoughts scientists?
That’s why the DNA companies are in business. They’re not making the big bucks off people buying the kits, but rather they make money selling your information.
Agreed, I've also got that interest but don't sell your dna, who knows how it will be used in the future, especially with the way things are going lol
I share your interest in having a DNA test but also your concerns about doing so, which is why I've been thinking about doing it for years but haven't gone through with it.. Also, I know a guy who did one of those DNA tests that lets you find unknown relatives. He was contacted by a half-sister he didn't know he had. They have the same father, but it's not the guy he thought was his father. It turns out that a guy he thought was his cousin is his biological father...I won't go into greater detail, but the whole situation is probably even more effed up than whatever you're imagining.
@@ericjette2435 thats the danger with those DNA ancestry tests/sites, they expose the dark family secrets you wanted to stay burried. (Or more accurately someone else wanted to stay burried, and you didn't want to know)
@@ericjette2435 I wanna know all the details😂😂
This was so much fun! I hope the two of you remain friends! You could certainly get more data that way and see how similar you really are after finding out more about one another.
The video I’ve been waiting years for
Interesting how after doing 23AndMe, as well as seeing these results of CircleDNA.. these genetic tests designed for the general public don't seem to be accurate at all. Definitely a fun (and expensive) thing to do, but it feels like reading your horoscope
Myancestry is more reliable as they use real old documents as well
Makes sense cuz then your environment comes into play
But i think maybe these DNA tests can tell you about your potential or something
You guys have GREAT chemistry together! This was so fun! 🥰
This video makes me smile so, so much! Funny enough I've been a superfan of Pentatonix since The Sing Off in 2011, and have watched ASAPScience for like ten years, too, but it's never even crossed my mind!
Now watching there is similarity, and I loved seeing you two together ❤️
Fun fact: these facial recognition neurons are actually much more proficient when you're a baby. They allow you to tell the difference between one ape or another, one animal and another of the same species. But as you age what you don't use- you lose. And this skill is narrowed more to human faces.
OMGs you are ridiculously fun together. Y'all should do a monthly game stream with science and singing.
This looked so fun!
What a great video
This is adorable as hell and scientifically fascinating
I don’t see it…but then again, I’m a Pentaholic, so I know Scott’s look very well. But now I’ve been introduced to you- and you’re fabulous! Loved this vid. ❤️
I never even realised they looked the same ngl
Omg your channel is the best 🥰
I have been waiting for this for the longest time... Ahhh it finally happened!🎉🥳
I legit thought AsapScience and Superfruit were run by the same people for atleast a year.
Never knew of Scott before, but he seems like a nice guy :P such fun energy.
He's a singer. Look into his group, Pentatonix. Enjoy.
Finally. Answered the most import question!!!! This is awesome!
Good lordy!
I just saw you guys as looking like brothers.
Love the energy of both of you guys ☺️🤗
ive met mine. hes real and everything others have seen him too.😂
3:05 this is also why cats are "afraid of cucumbers"
A couple have a pet mountain lion who's afraid of the garden hose and a plastic pipe.
This is hilarious. Two years ago, it so happened that I discovered Pentatonix and ASAPscience at about the same time (within 2-3 days of each other). Since both were new to me, I didn't know the members of Pentatonix and ASAPscience accurately. So when I watched an ASAPscience video after watching a Pentatonix video, I was like, "Wait, aren't these two guys from Pentatonix?" THEN I found out that both Pentatonix and ASAPscience have a Mitch and I thought they were the same. I was surprised because, these guys can both sing AND science?!
Finally I googled all of their names and realised (much to my disappointment) that Scott and Mitch were NOT the same people as Greg and Mitch.
This was so fun to watch! (:
Love this & love you 🤗
I'm sorry, but y'all do not look the same. What are people talking about?
I think they looked really alike in tik toks & pictures but once they stood next to each the differences really popped
It's like they chose the same default character in a video game while changing the face and height.
@@Tocinos Yeah... it's like they would be picked up for a lineup of similar people based on descriptors, but don't really look that similar. But as he said in the video, I can see how in context of lazy scrolling on youtube and them both having a Mitch around how some casual watchers could mix it up maybe?
Not to be contrary but I don't see it, your chins, jaws and eye shape are really different
Good laughs, high energy, adorable boiz! Lovely video!!
i’ve looked it up to see if you are two are the same person at least 5 times and yet every time i’m surprised
This is the gayest video ever and I love it.
You two should definitely start conspiracy theories by randomly doing shots for the other person in their videos (not the whole videos, just a scene here and there, controlling for the environment/background).
This video was very interesting. Thank you for this video.💡👌👌🏻👌🏾👌🏿🍁
The collab we definitely needed!! 😁 More videos together for sure.
His contents are always really good he Don't disappoint us...
The algorithm loves you!
This is the first video of yours I've seen, and I can't say I see a resemblance to Scott- other than you both being Caucasian men of a certain genetic build. Your personalities had a lot of similarities and it was fun to see you two on camera together. 💚 Maybe have a seasonal collab?
Loved this vid very cute and informative lol
I don't think I've ever seen you this excited in any of your other videos haha
It's not that you lookalike, it's that your sexualities are similar and you rmanerisms. It's nuts
Thanks for the wholesome content really needed a little restoration in humanity today
