Yeah...I think it would be scary! I have never seen anyone who I think looks like me, but loads of other people have! Only last week, a lady in the supermarket came up to me and thought I was someone else! Considering I am 5' 11.5" I can't imagine there are a lot of Juneau look-a-likes out there, but judging by the amount of people who have thought I was someone they knew, I guess there must be!
This actually happened to me when I met a brother I never knew I had. My father married a woman who looked very much like my mother and had 3 sons with her. I met the oldest one at my house about 65 miles from here. He was living in VA also what is weird is my dads 2nd wife was from MN and I grew up in NYC. My dad lived for years in NJ so it's very odd that this unknown brother wound up living so close to me. His wife who came with him when we met was in shock when she saw me. The other two brothers never were interested in meeting me though. I even wrote a heartfelt 2 page letter to the youngest one. He was livid that he was also named Tom like me. Of course, I came first so I was the original Tom so screw him!
I'm not sure I'd realize the person looked exactly like me. Sounds strange, I know . But it's kind of like how I don't see what someone tells me about 1 of my photos.(..if it's a compliment. I may see a little..but really can't see what they see)
Once I realized the person looked just like me....guess that person or others would convince me...maybe put us both in front of a mirror... then I'd probably stare & try to understand how others saw me. (A little like hearing your own voice played back...it doesn't sound like you to your own ears, but sure does to everyone else...)But I think it would be Very interesting once I got over the shock.
Well if that's confusing... it's just me (That's where my name comes from afterall...SCatterbrained)

It happened to me a few years ago, a couple of people had told me that they had saw me somewhere when I was some where else at that time, they thought that I was not telling the truth. One day I met my double in a bar and it was like looking in a mirror, anyway I bought him a pint!
I have been told I have a double, I had a women pull me aside and start talking to me, but I had to explain to her I wasn't who she thought I was . I even had the same first name as this other person , now that is creepy
