Real Life Dopplegangers of Cartoon Characters

Ned Flanders

Almost every reader who has been exposed to the Simpsons for a few episodes knows who Ned Flanders is. Mr. Innocent neighbor to Homer Simpson, Flanders is the epitome of the man who trusts everything works out for a reason and lives his life to the highest ideal of good behavior, including keeping his sweaters spotless as his mustache. So, it’s a bit of an odd feeling when one comes across the real Ned Flanders as shown in this photograph. We have a funny feeling he might have done a bit of work to make the resemblance work, including the wardrobe.
