For illustration purpose.

In the first, slightly blurry photo shared, the man revealed it as a picture of himself with his father and his younger self when he was just 3 years old.

Thirty years later, he posted a photo of himself now, looking very much grown and nearly the same age as his father was in the previous photo.

Additionally, he shared a picture with his 3-year-old son, who bears a strong resemblance to him in the second photo.

The striking similarities in the two photos stunned many social media users, leading them to flood the comment section with reactions.
