Candido Godoi - The Twins Land of Brazil
Candido Godoi, a small town in Southern Brazil, has fondly been nicknamed: Twins Land. As the name suggests, a phenomenal number of twins are born in the remote town each year - 10% of pregnancies result in multiple births. That's nearly 1,000 percent higher than the global average. Right from the elderly to young children, most of the town's inhabitants are two-of-a-kind. Understandably, several theories have been proposed to explain this bizarre phenomenon - both scientific and outlandish in nature.
