Celebrities are supposed to be unique because of their beauty, uniqueness, talent, character. What if we told you that many of today's celebrities have doppelgangers who lived decades, even centuries ago? And that these doubles came from the ranks of playwrights, actors, criminals, psychiatrists, scientists, even presidents?
You know those situations when you see a friend in the middle of town and then realize it's not him, but someone who looks incredibly similar to him? Or when you're frantically waving at someone from your car, and that innocent I-don't-know-what-is-going-on person on the sidewalk is looking at you in half-frightened half-horror? Yes, it's happened to everyone (and we've been on both sides). Well, imagine a similar situation, only while flipping through some history books. In the sequel, quite a few famous people follow, eerily similar to celebrities from decades ago. Appearance is obviously recycled with history.
