Aren't genetics so weird?

Ok well most of the time off springs will come out looking like their parents, but I just realized something pretty odd today. Well earlier my ex and I were hanging out at his house and all his siblings were there, he has 3 siblings. They are multiracial people they are half asian (korean/japanese) and half hispanic (puerto rican, native american, italian (well italian is not hispanic). Anyways both him and his fraternal twin sister and his youngest brother actually look like they have some kind of asian in them. The three of them look mostly asian except they have caucasian features when it comes to their noes, lips, and their eyes are a little bit more opened up. My ex and his sister both have grayish blue eyes and his youngest brother has brown eyes , but there middle brother looks nothing like any of them he looks like completely caucasian. He has baby blue eyes, strong caucasian features, and while the others are tan he is pretty pale. It's so strange. People always think he is adopted. Aren't genetics weird?

There is a one in 64 billion chance of being born the way you were born.

Genetics are arguably one of the most random things in the universe. The only thing that can give someone an idea of how someone will be born is by looking at their parents, but even that can throw someone for a loop.

There is a couple in the UK (might have been Britain), an interracial couple, Black dad, White mom. They had two kids. One came out looking completely White, while the other came out looking completely Black. Not to mention they were twins. Genetics....meh.

Oh yeah, did I mention they did it twice?
