Obv. the "very normal" trope is a bit nutty, but it's totally endearing that these are totally average sixteen yr. old myspace shots... minus the two heads thing.
How do we get them on noize board?

mind-blowing

If they get a cut on, say, the right arm, can they both feel it? What about the heads? If one head gets a cut or even like a canker sore or an itch, can the other head feel it? If they are really thirsty, can the thirst of both be slaked by just one of them drinking water? What happens if one of them dies?

i have so many questions

^@^ (map), Monday, 19 February 2007 21:35 (seventeen years ago) link

They probably each experience hunger individually b/c of 2 stomachs, but they share an intestine! Maybe they just eat a lot of protein.

Wasn't there a time gap between the deaths of Cheng and Eng (Old school "siamese" twins?)

Where/how do spinal columns come together?!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chang_and_Eng_Bunker

"The twins died on the same day in 1874. Chang, who had been in declining health for several years, died first; Eng expired several hours later."

"On April 13, 1843, they married two sisters: Chang to Adelaide Yates and Eng to Sarah Anne Yates. Chang and his wife had ten children; Eng and his wife had twelve."

More anecdotal Chang and Eng fun:

"As times grew harder and children increased, problems became numerous. The two sisters fought and put Chang and Eng into the middle of their battles. Soon the brothers turned against each other and bitter fights erupted, Chang drowning his problems in whiskey and Eng playing poker, therefore two houses were needed. These two houses were built in White Plains, Surry County, NC and less then two miles separated them. The wives lived apart, only Eng and Chang shared three days with Sallie and her children and then three days with Adelaide and her children. This arrangement continued for the rest of their lives. When times got rough, Eng and Chang would go on exhibit for a year, each taking a child who also performed in the show."

three lungs. so one could take a puff off a cigarette (or w33d 420) and the other could blow some of the smoke out of her mouth.

Lingbert (Lingbert), Monday, 19 February 2007 22:24 (seventeen years ago) link

ok that's actually kind of awesome. that middle lung is shared, right? they could each take hit down the two windpipes at the same time and have killerhit!

Slump Man (Slumpman), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 00:59 (seventeen years ago) link

i am embarrassed to admit that i once read a novelization of the life of chang & eng :(

bell labs (bell_labs), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 01:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Your search - "chang and eng slash" - did not match any documents.

Suggestions:

* Make sure all words are spelled correctly.
* Try different keywords.
* Try more general keywords.

Slump Man (Slumpman), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 01:31 (seventeen years ago) link

I tried to find that Chang and Eng novel, but never managed to. Sucked tho?

I think they come together at the pelvis.

also: that first myspace picture is kind of amazing.

does their ribcage sufficiently cover all the parts it's supposed to protect, or are they VULNERABLE?

xpost the chang and eng book was trash, so not worth seeking out!

bell labs (bell_labs), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 05:18 (seventeen years ago) link

although it wouldn't surprise me if they were infertile anyway.

They are not infertile. There was a doc on C4 the other night about them that said they had fully functioning sexual organs and reproductive system. The doctor did question whether or not they could carry a child full term. No female dicephalic conjoined twins have ever had children.

If they get a cut on, say, the right arm, can they both feel it? What about the heads? If one head gets a cut or even like a canker sore or an itch, can the other head feel it?

Neither of them has any sensation at all from the other's side, so no.

does their ribcage sufficiently cover all the parts it's supposed to protect, or are they VULNERABLE?

They had surgery to expand their chest cavity because of breathing problems. I don't know about and vulnerability but given how active they are it seems they are not worried about it.

Oh, this is a NOIZE thread. I shall return to my lurking.

Captain Purple Items (nu_onimo), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 10:38 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm just... flabbergasted. i would have many questions if i stopped being so amazed by it. i hope their mother didn't have to push'em through her vagina.

Still waiting for a responce. I got the answer for the how many tits with baby of you guys. I still need the answer for this situation:

You are having sex with a man. One of you wants it. The other doesn't. Is it concidered rape? Half rape? Any suggestions for a new name for this?

Thanks your friend

Dec 29 2006 2:17P

Rick Gibralter (grady), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 04:37 (seventeen years ago) link

Dec 28, 2006 8:40 PM
