I watched this documentary on Netflix last evening. Both fascinating and very, very troubling. Living in the UK this story passed me by. This is a must watch but be warned.

That is odd, as well as hard to believe!

It's not showing up on my Netflix. The best I get is films "related to..."

In the US it's on Hulu, I just started watching it. Thanks to all for the suggestion.

Great documentary - I saw it in a theater (remember those?) when it was released. It starts with their discovery that they were triplets who were separated at birth, and the amazing similarities in their lives. But then it goes darker with the investigation about why they were separated.

It's currently on Netflix in Australia - if you get an Aussie vpn you can view it from anywhere

Finished watching it. Josef Mengele during World War II did terrible experiments on children, especially twins. It' interesting and very sad that a Jewish psychologist performed the psychological experiments on separated Jewish twins and triplets and their adoptive parents in the decades after the war. This experiment certainly assisted in the tragic death of at least one of the participants in the study.

The doctor is long gone, but the damage he did to these people remains.

There are only two. One sadly committed suicide.

ditto... Jerry. I don't think it's available in the US for free. $3.99 on a number of streaming sites.
