Canadian photographer Francois Brunelle spent 12 years tracking down real life Doppelgängers — two individuals who are not related but could pass for identical twins — and photographing them. He calls his project “I’m Not a Look-Alike,” and it’s starting to get some well-deserved attention.

You're not alone, I thought the same thing... They don't look that similar, they would make a really trash "spot the difference" challenge.

Ok now imagine you're the only witness to a crime and the doppleganger walks in. You wouldn't question your recollection??

True, but probably also true if any person of the same skin tone and haircut walked in.
