When I was about five years old, my brother told me that there were 6 other people who were exactly like me in every way and they had the same name and everything. He told me that there was one of me for each continent. So the next year We went to England (I live in North America) and I went around to everyone asking: "Have you seen me?"
I believed that there were seven of me until I was about seven years old.
