his college for the first time though he had no idea that the reality was going to be wholly different when he stepped into his college for the first time everyone behaved as if they knew him for years it was weird for him and he did not know any of them however when he investigated the matter he learned some unbelievable facts about his own existence and during the same investigation he busted the biggest illegal racket transpiring in america like every other teenager robert had many dreams in his eyes the 19 year old boy had just completed a milestone of his life by finishing high school and took on another when he enrolled himself in college he had high hopes for his new life he began shopping with his friends and before the opening of college had even decided what he was going to wear on his first day he knew his first day was going to be very special the boy had gotten admission in sylvan county community college no doubt robert was infused with nervousness and excitement the level of both rose to its highest on the first day of the college though he had been waiting for this day for a very long time robert got gripped with nervousness when the day arrived however he entered the college keeping all his hesitation and nervousness at bay it was a new world for him encompassing new places and new faces he looked at everything with utter amazement and wonder how much college life is different from high school he remained lost in his thoughts till a voice from behind hit his ear he turned back and saw an unidentified man coming toward him the boy hugged him and asked him how he was now it went over his head he stared at the boy for a minute and tried to recognize him but he could not he was sure he did not know him but the boy was reacting in a very friendly way as if he knew him not able to draw any rational conclusion the boy took it as an extra friendly nature of the college students surprisingly it was not only that boy but many students treated him as if they knew him what was going on come an entire college was behaving in a similar way it wasn't one or two people who were doing this but the whole college was behaving in a strange way something was seriously wrong initially he suspected it to be a prank but soon had to rule out this assumption as to why would the entire college come together to pull a prank on him it didn't make any sense one thing that confused him further was this eddie name he noticed that his college mates were calling him with the name of eddie while approaching in fact there were even some girls who kissed him while giving greetings the other fellow classmates showed their happiness on seeing him back the name eddie had thickened the mystery while each and everyone in the college was calling him eddie surprisingly he had never heard this name before he assumed perhaps he resembled someone named eddie and maybe that's why people were mistaking him for that but what he could not understand was how one can look so similar to someone that no one was able to differentiate between them well he was soon going to get the answer to this question he had been on the campus only for an hour and had heard eddie thousands of times he headed toward the dorm room he was allotted while pondering over the strange developments who was this eddie why was everyone calling him by this name in no time he reached his dorm as he opened the door he saw his roommate in the room he approached him with a smile but his roommate had his eyes fixated on him with a surprised expression michael domets his roommate revealed to him that he looked exactly like his ex-roommate eddie galland so robert had a doppelganger it was just the tip of the iceberg what astounded eddie moore was another revelation that his new roommate made the information wedded robert's curiosity the name had been haunting him since he stepped onto college he asked michael more and more about the person named eddie until his roommate told him something very surprising about his doppelganger eddie shared his birthday with robert while the revelation triggered more questions than it answered he had to meet his doppelganger to get all those questions answered finally arrive the moment when robert confronted eddie well they would count the moment one of the weirdest in their life it seemed as if they were looking in a mirror everything looked exactly the same from their hair color to facial features now robert understood why everyone called him eddie in college it was difficult for them to see any difference as far as eddie is concerned he was yet to come out of the surprise he had just received while chatting they realized they had a lot of things in common they had surprisingly same mannerisms facial expressions walk and even the same laugh despite the fact that they were so similar to each other they had never seen each other before how is it possible that two people who had no idea about each other's existence had so much in common was it just a coincidence or was there something really big working behind it they decided to find out before they could make their first step another amazing revelation came their way well the amazing information was that the two not only had the same birthday on the same day they were born in the same place too they even had the same iq level and surprisingly a birthmark in the same place the revelations were still coming in and each of them was more surprising than the previous one while talking they learned another incredible fact so what blew their mind away was the fact that both of them were adopted the piece of information prompted them to take an unusual step they turned to seek medical help in order to find out the truth they opted for a dna test as dna testing was not very popular or trustworthy at the time the decision was subjected to criticism by many people however the duo had their full faith in it after days of wait the results came out and shook them from within the result confirmed that the two were long-lost brothers while this amazing news spread throughout the nation the amazing story of these brothers made it into the press and astounded everyone who heard about them while the brothers were still unknown to the twist that was coming in their story very soon as of now the duo was ruling the front space of the leading dailies that made their life story reach every corner of the world one of the people who heard about their story was david the man had another twist to add to this already startling story david kellman announced that his looks are quite similar to that of twins and that he shares his birthday with them press quickly grabbed this news and ran it again and again in order to prove this claim he too underwent a dna test so what do you think the results stated well the results upheld his claim he indeed was their brother that made them identical triplets now it was confirmed that they were identical triplets however their investigation did not end there in fact they had to find out the answers to some important questions for instance if they were born on the same day at the same place and at the same time then how did they get separated who was responsible for their separation and why were they never told about the existence of each other in no time the triplets became the hot topic of the town the spotlight had turned on them and they became the new subject of discussion for the public the world of news media was after them no doubt their story was selling like a hot cake famous anchors such as tom brokaw and phil donahue interviewed them the trio had connected with each other in no time they got along so well that it was difficult to tell that they were strangers just a few days ago robert explained once we got together there was a joy that i had never experienced in my life and it lasted a really long time all of them were amazed at the similarities they shared with each other all of them loved smoking cigarettes eating italian food and what more was that all three of them liked dating older women that time was what could be said was the best of their lives they had each other and attention and love pouring in from every corner of the world robert eddie and david were spending as much time together as possible it took them 19 years to get to know about each other and now they were together they wanted to make the most of it though they reunited they still wanted to know why they got separated in the first place a bitter truth was awaiting them the brothers opened a restaurant together and christened it triplets old new york steakhouse owing to the popularity of brothers the success of this business was highly anticipated and as expected the manhattan-based restaurant became a big success in its first year many of the customers were those who used to visit the food place only to catch a glimpse of these amazing brothers the brothers were doing great in their professional and personal lives both but still they were not content they wanted to know more about their mysterious past so they kick-started their journey to truth not knowing their discovery was about to leave an impact on the entire country little did they know that the mission that they had undertaken was going to throw lots of thundering truths on the on their face one of them was this the triplets discovered that they were not identical triplets but a rare set of identical quadruplets when they were born but they lost their fourth brother to death just after their birth it is important to mention here that if the fourth one had been living the quadruplets would have been considered rare well they are not the only people who got separated in their childhood unfortunately the cases of this sort are in abundance whereas some manage to find each other there are some who live their entire life without knowing that they have triplets or twins twins named adriana scott and tamara rabbi met the same fate and would have been living their lives in ignorance if this unbelievable truth was not for their mutual friend their common friend noticed glaring similarities they shared with each other the brothers knew where to go to get their investigation started all they knew was that they were born in long island jewish medical center and therefore were given to louise wise services a highly dignified adoption agency and it was from there these kids got adopted by their current parents the institution was mainly built for jewish kids it was in 1980 triplets six adoptive parents once again stepped into the institution but this time to seek answers of questions the adoption service agency came into existence in 1916. the agency that is an east coast adoption center was primarily formed to help jewish mothers and adopters but instead of getting lauded for its work the center has many allegations slapped against it there was a general belief that the adoption center was operating a staten island home sheltering single mothers who used to trade their unborn kids to the adopters for money the charges did not end there the agency was accused of not putting the important details regarding the health of the to be adopted kids or his birth family in front of the adopted parents but those allegations never got proved and so they all remained baseless did the same thing happen with robert eddie and david robert eddie and david with their parents confronted the adoption agency with all their queries the center that was not prepared for this confrontation tried to pacify the triplets by stating that they did it only to do away with the sibling rivalry that kids usually do in order to gain the attention of adopted parents however it did not make sense to the triplets in fact the trepidation of agency to justify their act made them grow even more suspicious of the institution what were they going to do now confronting agency was a futile attempt they walked out of the building even more confused and curious there was no breakthrough the agency clearly had refused to help them one of the parents of the triplets had forgotten his umbrella in the office when he returned to the office to fetch his umbrella he saw an unexpected sight there the staff members were celebrating something one of them popped open the bottle of champagne and the rest were laughing it seemed as if they dodged a bullet the site indeed solidified his doubt he sprinted towards the triplets to tell him it was a big lead they knew there was something really wrong and they were determined to unravel every layer of it well the information came along with lots of questions for the triplets what the staff was celebrating and why right after their exit they were already not convinced with their lame reasons and now this celebration added fuel to the fire after perceiving the behavior of the institution the triplets too began to believe in rumors that were doing rounds for years so was the agency alone or was there something else hand in glove with it so what their adoptive parents told them on being asked they told them that a large part of the information regarding their family and health had been kept from them not only that but they were also told that the kids were subject to a child development study and for that reason the researchers used to visit their kids regularly for decades they would come to the home to take their behavioral and aptitude tests they also revealed that they had separation anxiety in their infancy however they did not pay much heed as they thought it to be a result of a change of environment what clicked their mind was the fact that all three of them came from a different socioeconomic background robert hailed from an affluent family his father was a doctor on the other side eddie belonged to a middle-class family david got adopted in a working-class family his adoptive father owned a store normally the selection of adoptive parents for twins and triplets are done randomly regardless of their socioeconomic background but here it seemed the family was selected purposely by the agency so all these things were planned but why they got the answer to their question from a journalist named lawrence wright who had been following the case closely he stated that the triplets were involved in a study that centered around the question if a person's development is shaped by its life experience or dna unfortunately it was not only these twins who had been made the guinea pig but five more sets of twins too in order to achieve the accurate result it was necessary for the conductor to have control on as many variables as possible besides other things have to be common between them although the triplets were sent off to families with different socioeconomic backgrounds they all had a sister two years older than them that wasn't coincidence that was planned in its earlier stage the nature versus nurture experiments processed many interviews and assessments done many years after the twins or triplets moved away from each other however here the interviews and assessments remained constant from their birth to the time they got matured so who was the mastermind behind this it was dr peter neubauer a child psychiatrist and psychoanalyst by profession during those times he was placed as manhattan's director of the child development center neubauer belonged to austria and was a world war ii refugee not only that his way of conducting the processing the study had stark's similarity with experiments conducted during world war ii in the mid-1940s to many of us the separation anxiety thing doesn't seem real but the triplets or twins does go through this if they get separated and there have been many research on the subject that have confirmed the existence of separation anxiety eddie robert and david though got separated after their birth they stayed together for nine months in the womb claire kelman the adopted mother of david kellman had seen her son going through separation anxiety in his childhood claire explained david began talking very early i remember him waking up and saying i have a brother we would all talk about his imaginary brother the anxiety was not felt by david alone the other two underwent the same feeling in their childhood separation anxiety may end in childhood but its effects can remain for a long time in one's life a person with separation anxiety gives away many symptoms including familial discord sense of independence social isolation academic failure lacking the ability to develop and maintain relationships development of symptoms of other mental health conditions and suicidal thoughts and behaviors well for some twins the separation anxiety goes away within a few hours of separation and for some the anxiety lasts for many years some feel the anxiety after getting separated by even an hour just imagine how difficult would it be for eddie robert and david who stayed apart for almost 20 years now the mystery was resolved and the three were leading a good life until robert shafran got nabbed for having a hand in a robbery that involved the murder of an old woman but the court let go robert with a sentence of doing community service according to the court robert had a minimal role in the crime other heartbreaking events occurred when eddie gallon killed himself in his home in maplewood new jersey the unfortunate incident occurred in 1995. galland was only 33 years old when he bid goodbye to the world leaving his wife and daughter behind the reason propelling eddie to commit suicide is still a mystery however his brothers believed separation anxiety to be the possible reason child development center was supervising this immoral study the center later on merged with jewish board robert and david are claiming an apology and monetary compensation from the agency triplets had their story reached every nook and cranny of the world through a movie named three identical strangers the documentary was filmed for the first time at the sundance film festival the movie directed by tim wardle begins from the first day of robert in the college in 1980 the documentary was a success it earned amazing reviews from all around the world documentary was a great help in raising awareness among the common people not only that the movie helped a great deal in putting pressure on the agency along with monetary compensation and apology the brothers want them to change their working style shafron revealed to the washington post in an interview i think the first thing the jewish board should have done once they became aware of this movie is reunite any twins still surviving and advise those who have been deceased just so they can know who they are the triplets managed to see each other when the chances were so thin yeah it took them some years to know about each other but despite the slimy probability they succeeded not all separated twins or triplets are bestowed upon with this opportunity one thing was sure dr peter neubauer had no mercy for his subjects siegel who met him once explained what struck me most was he showed absolutely no remorse for what he had done he still felt he had done the right thing however his study confirmed genes have a more pervasive influence than we thought as the study showed ended up being extremely alike jewish board disowns the brutal experiment conducted by dr peter neubauer by conveying the message through their spokeswoman she says the jewish board does not endorse the study undertaken by dr peter neubauer and is appreciative that the film has created an opportunity for a public discourse about it we hope that the film encourages others to come forward and request access to their records the jewish board had no role in the separation of twins adopted through louise wise as of now robert is undergoing the training of a lawyer david is working as an insurance consultant along with that robert and david are also working to promote three identical strangers the movie based on their life
