Life is full of coincidences, but in some cases these seem almost too incredible to be truly such: here we see some disturbing coincidences, definitely strange but equally true.

The twin of the king

Many kings have used doubles in the past. But the one encountered by Umberto I of Savoy was absolutely incredible. Umberto I came across his double by chance, while dining in a small restaurant, where he noticed that the owner of the restaurant was almost identical to himself. However, the similarities weren't just physical: both were born in the same city on the same day in the same year, both married a woman named Margherita, and both had a son named Vittorio. The owner had opened his restaurant on the same day that Umberto was crowned king. Finally, the restaurant owner was killed (by an accidental shot from cleaning the gun) the same day Umberto was murdered.

Titan and Titanic

As is known, fourteen years later, in 1912, the Titanic sank, under incredibly similar circumstances: both ships were considered unsinkable, but were hit by an iceberg. In both cases, the accident occurred in April, about 400 miles from Newfoundland, and both incidents resulted in the deaths of over 2,000 people due to a lack of life jackets and lifeboats.

Deadly scooter

In 1975, a man was killed in the Bermuda Islands in a car accident involving a taxi while traveling on a scooter. A year later, the man's brother was killed on the same island, also colliding with a taxi while traveling on a scooter. The taxi was the same as the brother's fatal accident, and was carrying the same passenger.
