It's remarkable considering each sister controls just the one arm and one leg on her side of the body—so they need to co-ordinate to make the limbs move together.
Abigail, on the left as you look at our pictures, works the right arm and leg. Brittany does the left. You'd think that even moving their legs in tandem to walk would take huge concentration.
But scenes filmed for a documentary on US-based The Learning Channel, show how, seemingly effortlessly, they:
# COMPETE on their school softball and volleyball teams.
# PLAY piano by co-ordinating their separate hands.
# TYPE emails and instant messages on their computer as if one person.
# SYNCHRONISE their limbs to drive an automatic car...although Abby works both pedals.
An incredible story. You'll enjoy readeading it.
