doppelgängers
Thomas Lennon (Lieutenant Dangle in Reno 911) looks just like a young Martin Mull (Clue, Roseanne). Mull played “New Dangle” in an episode of Reno, but they should seriously play father and son in something.
CH Doppelgangers Contest: Josh Ruben + Oompa = Ruben Loompa? Oompa Loompa Rubendy Doo?
If you or a friend or an oompa loompa look like any of us here at CollegeHumor then submit them to us on Tumblr. May the best doppelganger win eternal glory.
Legit. (Except no idea who this Ruben guy is. And STOP tumbleganging us CH.)

I Am Legion: Universe of One
Cheyne Gallarde was born and raised in Hawaii in the 80s, but he claims “my soul feels like it was born in the 50s.” His affection for midcentury Americana is plainly evident in the fashion photography of Gallarde’s studio Firebird Photography. Gallarde’s work combines a love of theater (and the theatrical) with maximalist colors and a kinetic feel. All of these elements came together in his Universe of One project, where Gallarde photographs himself as various characters using all the tools at his command, from makeup and wardrobe to lighting and backdrops. After testing the waters with his Tumblr, Gallarde decided to transform his transformations into a book via Kickstarter, with a modest cash goal that was funded almost immediately. Before that’s even done, he’ll spin it off into a second book, Twinsies, which will get its own Kickstarter very shortly. To demonstrate his skills, Gallarde offered to incarnate our own David Karp, and the man himself graciously accepted. The results and process may be seen above, and our talk with Gallarde appears below.

Look-alikes: Funnyman Steve Carell vs. Rocker Alice Cooper
Francois Brunelle is a French Canadian photographer whose work gives new meaning to the phrase “double exposure.”
For the past several years, Brunelle has been documenting doppelgangers — people who happen to look strikingly similar but aren’t related. He’s on a quest to make 200 black-and-white portraits, and plans to eventually turn the project into a book.

Have We Met Before? Doppelgangers Caught on Camera
Photographer Francois Brunelle on his work documenting doppelgangers:
“You would be surprised how many people on this planet are looking for their doppelganger,” he says. “I’ve gotten many emails over the years from Chinese people who are asking me, ‘Could you please find my lookalike so I can have something to relate to?’ “
Brunelle thinks the widespread desire for a familiar face is a symptom of the modern world we live in — where, despite our connections through social media, we can feel more alone than ever.
