Two receivers, one station.

So this is a little bit fascinating.

The link will take you to a YouTube clip from the Jimmy Kimmel Live show. It starts of with an interview of two Australian identical twins following a car jacking, and then Jimmy Kimmel interviews them live.

Pay attention to the synchronicity of speech and the instances where they simultaneously speak the exact same words.

Here is the video (I have skipped forward to the relevant segment).

A materialist/physicalist, who believes that consciousness is produced by the brain might say that this is simply a case of identical twins having the same brain architecture (and as sisters, a similar lived experience) that predisposes this sort of matched speech.

A panpsychist or idealist, who believes that consciousness is transpersonal would suggest that this is a case of two receivers being tuned to the same radio station (the mind at large).

  1. Are these the same twins that looked after Cliff Young ( the shuffler) in his later years?
