Ethan and Grayson Dolan set out to have a really cool Zoom party!

The Dolan Twins scoured the internet for others sets of twins to have one big twin party.

Other twins featured in the video were Niki & Gabi, Brooklyn & Bailey, Chase and Alan Stokes, Lisa and Lena, Vanessa and Veronica Merrell, Lucas and Marcus Dobre, and Nick and Adam Buongiovanni, as well as Charli and Dixie D’Amelio, because they look alike close enough to be mistaken as twins.

Gabi even said to the D’Amelio sisters, “Honestly, you guys look way more alike than Niki and I ever looked alike.” HA!

All of the siblings are quarantining with their twins, except for Niki & Gabi because Gabi was at Walt Disney World when the pandemic started to really affect the US, so she has been self quarantined.

During the video, the guys asked questions including which twin was older, which set of twins looked the most alike, and more. Watch the video now!
