im sorry to say it, but in my mind its better that they pass on, not because like i have something against them, but imagine the pressure theyd have to go through during their life, or his life? (idk) but i mean like, up until about 8thgrade, he/they 'd be look down upon from classmates because thats simply how kids are. It is however, disappointing that he/they died because the parents couldnt afford medical care. y didnt the gov't step in?

I'd like to say it could be due to sub-standard living conditions or vitamin deficiencies- but I don't think that ever happened in America even a long long time ago- at least not that I've ever heard of.
It has to be a mineral or something in their water or something. Something floating in the air or something. So, all along the Indians thought these deformed people were Gods, but really it's just like a defect caused by like, too much copper or something. HAHAHAHA

that's sad the baby died, coz i want to know what he would have grown up like. why is it that all these weird anomalies appear in or around india, you don't hear much of babies being born anywhere else with two heads, and two arms and two legs(on the same body), or 8 limbs, or two faces. Is it because developed countries have better health care and get sonograms and can see when babies are developing abnormally and abort them, or does it just not happen? and interrestingly enough they all resemble gods. I can't wait for the elephant headed baby to be born, that'll be a tough one to explain.

wonder how the mother feels.

ummmm........two heads are better than one???

neato

Dude that's a lil creepy, but the baby seems healthy.

"home for old school"

well the sex is going to be weird...

Chick 1: "hey baby.. lets go"
Guy: "SURE"
Chick 2: "WTF are you cheating on me?"

Forgive me, but only one word comes to my mind....freaky. A person with two heads would scare the living, breathing, shit out of me. Kind of reminds me of Monty Python's Holy Grail.

Both faces are actually cute.

is this/these child/children going to be treated as a god/gods like other children born in india with disfigurements?

it's going to be very frustrating once he starts dating...

It's too early to tell, but what if one of the heads is female?

This does raise a lot of questions about identity.. would the two heads be like identical twins? Or exactly the same person but somehow with two brains? Do both feel stimulus on the rest of the body? Facinating.

If the parents are happy with their child or children then I am happy.

Do they not have sonograms in Bangladesh? How was this pregnancy allowed to go to full term? Poor baby!

AWSOME!

"but there was a developmental anomaly"....i would say so. to bad we cant pop out a kid with some powers or wings....we just get extra heads and stuff.

Two heads are better than one!

this is so cool but i hope they are going to be ok.

Why do most of these rare cases seem to be from this area??? Perhaps it is because of all the attention from the people??? So bizarre!

in one word: bizarro...

i wonder if its like computer with two screens...or two computers hooked up to one screen...like do they/he have individual thoughts? or does he think them twice???? so confusing

I realize this type of thing happens everywhere in the world but it just seems like it is prominent in this area of the world. Wonder if there is anything specific that contributes to these anomalies.

If someone married someone with two heads or a Siamese Twin....are they considered a polygamist? (I know the baby here is male and there is a female word for Polygamist---but it would ruined the flow.)

Kiron is a cool name, by the way. I stare in fascination than whoa what is that....I find that to be important so that if I ever had such a child or a child that was different and people stared I would say, "They are staring at you out of fascination not out of fear."

I think it's cool that people are leaving money. That's kind of them.

I bet the left head will be the more dominant one, as it seems to be bigger and set more straight on the body. Of all the conjoined twin stories i've seen, the twin that is more physically prominent and straight is the leader.

Im still confused, I thought two brains means two seperate minds and people. Unless one brain controls both heads!?!

ahh, so wierd.

I hope they can live a healthy life.

This is just mind boggle-ing! I think they deserve 2 names though. They both have brains right?

amazing!

you know what they say..."two heads are better than one!" lol

im kinda old fashioned, 2 heads...2 names.

I have a hard enough time getting my own thoughts together. I hope they don't end up having different ideologies, although it'd be awesome taking tests with another head there to store memory. If they got married would it be to the same woman or do they each get one? Enough of my bad thoughts, I hope they have a good life.

but are there two personalities...? if they are two seperate people with two seperate minds, they should have their own names right?

anyone know why this kind of stuff happens to happen, it seems, often in this region of the world?

Human anomalies have always fascinated me. I always wonder which person controls which limbs and such... and what if they have a pinching competition!? What about the skin... do both feel everything or does one feel half/some skin... I mean, if the left hand gets burned, will both feel it?!

They'd be really good at Guitar Hero.

So what then happens if it's got 1 heart? Doesn't that indicate 1 being over & above any number of heads it does possess...?

Somewhere P.T. Barnum is smiling.

This is crazy, does only one mouth need to feed to keep the other head going? One if one head is gay and the other is straight??? OH MY GOD. So many questions. does only one head control the body and the other head is just for show?? The next stage of evolution??

Absolutely mind boggling.

what did they name the baby. or babies?

this truely blows my mind, so if they have 2 heads and one body, and share some organs, there obviously goin to have 2 different enomtions, but how do u feed a 2headed and one stomach..being?! do they know when there full?!!? do they cry at the same time or does just one cry at a time..?! i need answers damn it!!!

that is the coolest thing i have ever seen - period .

i hope the kid grows up to be a rock star

I am fascinated by the photo. I reckon our culture is returning to the days of the freak circus, people love seeing the weird and the wonderful.

I can't help but feel we are exploiting the subjects of these stories though.

I find that picture mind-blowing and assumed it was fake at first. And 150,000! That's quite a crowd.

This is definetly some kind of twin at conception,but development was somehow impaired.

it was formed from one embryo though, which means that it is one baby with two heads, like when a turtle or lizard is born with two heads you dont say they are two lizards, you say one lizard with two heads. But there are a set of girls born here in the u.s. that share a body, and they are two girls because one girl has two arms and the other has only one, so they only really share one pair of legs and reproductive organs, this is one baby with a twin head!(the indian baby)

So they are treating this as one child? Since it/they have two functioning brains (which it seems to since it feeds from both), wouldn't that be two individuals that share a body? What is the minimal amount of individual organs to make it become conjoined twins rather than a single person who happens to have two heads?
