** More recent studies have suggested that this and similar/related phenomenon such as dopplegangers and out of body experiences are a result of, more or less, a part of the brain misfiring. Essentially, the part of the brain that's responsible for spacial self-awareness (ie how the brain knows where your hands are and how you're positioned so it can do basic things like walk and put your finger on your nose) can, if stimulated, result in the brain being fooled that you are, in effect, somewhere else such as three feet behind and to your left. Consequentially, the rest of the brain tries to reconcile the fact by freaking out even more.
