World’s oldest conjoined twins, Lori and George Schappell, die at age 62

57% Center coverage: 66 sources

The world's oldest conjoined twins have died at the age of 62. Lori and George Schappell were born in 1961 in Pennsylvania with partially fused skulls and shared vital blood vessels and 30% of their brain, Guinness World Records reported. The pair died on 7 April, at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, according to an obituary posted online by Leibensperger Funeral Homes. The cause of death remains unknown. Having held the title of the world's oldest living conjoined twins since 2022, they also became the first same-sex conjoined twins to identify as different genders after George came out as transgender in 2007. The Schappell twins defied all medical predictions which said they would not live past the age of 30 and managed to live separate lives despite being attached.See the Story

And his mom ended up giving birth right in this park.” Cottrell said after three or four weeks, the weaning period was over, and his mom took off.See the Story
