If some day you bump into a friend who is wearing the same T-shirt as you, would you call it a coincidence? What would you say if this friend shared his birthday with you? Then perhaps you would call it a coincidence. But to say that this friend was born in the same hospital where you were born and the only difference was that his room number was 102 and your room number was 201. What would you call it? Coincidence? Story of some movie? Or some celestial secret we don't have the ability to understand?
There are just too many things that happen at the same time, but some events are so closely linked together that they spook us. Here are 15 coincidences lined up and they will shock you.
1. Movies on each other's name. Planned or coincidence?
In 2013, actor Rajkumar Rao appeared in a movie called 'Shahid' and few days later there was a film with Shahid Kapoor in it and it was named 'R... Rajkumar'.
2. Kejriwal's life turned upside down exactly in a year
Arvind Kejriwal gave his resignation on February 14, 2014 and exactly one year later, after winning the election, he sworn in as the chief minster on February 14, 2015.
3. The Twin brothers who died exactly the same way on the same road by the same person
Neville and Erskine Ebbin, two brothers died at the age of 17 years in a taxi accident. The chilling part is that both of them died in the span of a year, when both were running the same moped. What is more surprising is that Erskine's accident occurred by the same taxi which killed Neville. And guess what, the taxi driver was the same man who killed Neville. Unbelievable, but true. Here's a newspaper clipping.
4. Mark Twain correctly predicted his own death
Famous writer, Mark Twain said in 1909, "I came in with Halley's Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it. It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don't go out with Halley's Comet. The Almighty has said, no doubt: 'Now here are these two unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together'."
On April 21, 1910, he died of a heart attack one day after the comet's closest approach to Earth.
5. Tendulkar and Kohli share the same pattern of scores
The coincidence between the god of cricket, Sachin Tendulkar and cricket's rising star, Virat Kohli is hard to believe. In the year 1999, Sachin had completed 1000 runs against Australia in the 19th over in the fifth test match in Melbourne.
15 years later, Virat Kohli too completed 1000 runs against Australia in Melbourne in the fifth test match and that too in the 19th over. They both were 26 years old when they achieved this feat and they both were playing with an MRF bat.
6. Johnny Bravo gave hints about 9/11 before it really happened

9. The awesome combination between Sachin Tendulkar, Michael Clarke and Alastair Cook

10. Twins who met after years only to realize that everyone in their families is named the same.
Jim Springer and Jim LOUIS, two look-alike brothers were separated in childhood and at the age of 39, they met again. Now get ready to be blown away.

11. A bullet that killed a man 20 years after it was shot.
A man named Henry Ziegland from Texas left his girlfriend. The upset girlfriend tried to suicide. Her brother decided to avenge her death, shooting Ziegland, then himself. Little did he realise the bullet had only skimmed Henry, lodging itself in a tree. All was well until 20 years later when Henry decided to dynamite said tree, causing the bullet to fly into his head and kill him.
12. The curious case of same details
Just like in India, every citizen in the US is given a Social Security number. Two women were given the same security number due to the computer's fault. When they were called in the office what unfolded was shocking!
- Both of them had the same name, Patricia N. Cambell
- Their father's name was Robert Cambell.
- Both were born on March 13, 1941.
- Both got married in 1959 to a man in the army
- Both had two children aged 21 and 19
- Both of them liked oil painting
- Both of them had studied Cosmetology
- Both of them worked in the accounts department
So can we really blame the computer?
13. The divine typhoon that saved Japan from several attacks
In the 13th century, Mongols decided to conquer Japan but when they arrived at Japan Hakata Port they were received by a typhoon, which forced them to leave. Then they decided to attack Japan in the summer season. Again this time, a typhoon halted them. Superstitious Mongols felt that Japan is blessed and that victory over them is impossible. They never attacked again. Shockingly, storms like these do not come in the summer season.

15. The man who couldn't escape lightening even after his death
During the first world war, there was a British Army Major named Summerford. During a battle, lightening struck him and his legs got paralyzed.
Then he moved to Canada where while fishing he was again struck by lightning, which made the right part of his body useless.
It took him two years to recover. In summer he was walking in the park when lightning fell on him again. This time he was completely paralyzed.
Major Summerford died two years later. But he couldn't escape lightening. Four years after the death, his grave was again struck by lightning and it was damaged.
