在泰国，就有这样一对震惊欧洲的华人兄弟，他们是连体婴儿，扭动着庞大的身躯做马戏表演，靠“畸形秀”满足人们的心理，博观众一笑。
他们甚至到博物馆，成为人们参观拍照的“展品”，并以此积累财富获得美国居住权。
从泰国的夜功府，到美国的北卡罗来纳，他们一起走过了63年，一刻不曾分离。
在全世界诞生连体婴平均概率约为1／200000的今天，他们不仅活下来，还成为实现“美国梦”的代表之一。
他们就是连体双胞胎：章安兄弟。
1811年章安兄弟出生于暹罗（今泰国）夜功府，父亲是泰籍华人，母亲则是中马混血，他们腹部相连，共用肝脏。
但19世纪的医学水平彻底决定了兄弟俩的命运：两人分开将会冒巨大的风险。
夫妇俩决定让兄弟俩平安长大，这对连体双胞胎也成了当时医疗史上罕见的病例。
因为他们的中国基因，加上当时外国人对东方人傻傻分不清，所以章安兄弟在西方也一度被称为“中国双胞胎”。
为了方便行动和生活，章安兄弟从小就在母亲的鼓励下坚持运动，以拉伸两人身体相连的部分。
