Samuel was born first but his twin brother Ronan is older

Can you figure out how?

Cape Cod Healthcare posted a photograph of new parents Emily and Seth Peterson with their adorable new twins.

But what’s strange about their birth is that Samuel, who was born first, is younger than his twin brother Ronan, who arrived 31 minutes later.

How, you ask?

Daylight savings.

Samuel was born at 1.39am on November 6, and his brother Ronan’s birth was recorded as 1.10am – because the clocks went back at 2am.

Wrap your head around that!
