A 10-year old English girl named Laura Buxton released a balloon into the sky with the note: "Please send back to Laura Buxton". It flew south over England and landed in the yard of another 10-year old girl, whose name also happened to be Laura Buxton! When they met, they were identical in height, hair color, and both wore a similar pink jumpers and jeans. Not to mention, they each brought their pet guinea pig.

Really? Is it real? Can life be that awesome and ironic?

Here's the Radiolab story.
