Chip Off The Old Block! These Identical Parent/Child Photographs Are Incredible

We all look a little like our parents. Maybe you have your Dad's nose, or your Mum's smile. Maybe you both have the same hair colour. But these parents and their children are different. Let us categorically tell you that these photos go WAY beyond just a couple of similarities, showing just how amazing genetics can be. To be honest, we're not entirely sure these people aren't just clones...

After Imgur user BlackberryCobbler shared these snaps, we have been a little obsessed. From identical tiny tots to matching 'new father' photos, these photos reveal genetically identical parents (and even grandparents!) and their children. They're basically twins born in different generations, which is completely amazing. Imagine having a little mini me grow up to look exactly like you!

Here are the most amazing identical parent/child matches...

What we think is the most amazing is how similar their expressions are. From the laughing toddlers to the alarmed baby (three snaps from the end), it looks like they received not only their parents looks, but their personalities as well! Can any scientists out there explain this to us?!

Did you look like your parents when you were young?! Tweet us a snap @sofeminineUK!
