Was just looking up the stats for the Thompson twins since I think they're both going to make a splash in the NBA over the next few years.

Turns out Amen (6'7 / 201cm) is taller than his IDENTICAL twin brother Ausar (6'6 / 198cm).

I didn't even think this was possible since they have the same genetics and presumably had the same health and diet growing up.

But if one is heavier than the other, it shows they haven’t been doing everything the exact same in life. You only think height is purely based on genetics because you don’t have a twin to compare lifestyles to. You could have ended up taller or shorter if things were slightly different.
