Has anyone met siblings who looked identical despite not being twins?

Has anyone ever met siblings who look identical despite not being twins? Today I went to a colleague's house to drop something off and met her two DDs aged 13 and nearly 17. If she hadn't told me otherwise I would have sworn blind they were identical twins, even with the age gap, to me they looked completely identical except for hairstyle and clothes. It wasn't just me as she told me they're constantly getting mistaken for twins. It was really bizarre! I didn't even know that was possible. Obviously siblings often look alike but I've never come across it to that extent.

Yes.

I taught a secondary school class containing two sisters who used to become really annoyed because everyone thought that they were identical twins.

In actual fact, one was 9 months older than the other. When I first met them, I couldn't tell them apart.

My younger brothers who are identical twins look exactly the same as my older brother.

my younger brothers sons look exactly the same but I suppose they do share a lot of DNA

When DC were young knew twin girls assumed they were identical twins as looked identical - but no they were fraternal twins.

My own DC are often described as clones of each other - 2 girls one boy- odd thing is they have different features which few clock yet still look so similar - even strangers to them ID them as siblings of one of kids they do know.

My siblings look nothing a like and people often question if they had same parents but both look like me - one shared colouring other no shared colour but similar face shape and features.
