The geneticists have no solid explanation for the 38 pairs of twins among about 80 families living in a one-and-a-half-square-mile area in CÂNDIDO GODÓI, Brazil. Locals say it's "in the water" that a mineral exists that affects ovulation. Some specialists say it's due to inbreeding and genetic isolationism. Some even think it is linked to Joseph Mengele, the Nazi doctor who did experiments at Auschwitz during WWII on twins, who is said to have roamed this Brazilian area years ago. A local doctor who set out to discover why the high concentration of twins believes that the citizens are holding back on information on Mengele still fearing for themselves.
This would be a nice village for Octo-mom.
