Investigation Puts Ancestry DNA Kits To The Test Among Sets Of Triplets

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ก.พ. 2017
- Millions of people are purchasing and using home DNA kits to determine their ancestry. Inside Edition enlisted the help of two sets triplets and a set of quadruplets to investigate the accuracy of the at-home tests. Their ancestry should be absolutely identical since they all came from the same egg. Unfortunately, the reveal confused and disappointed the sisters because of the varied results. The set of quadruplets were almost identical and did not have the variations seen in the triplets. #InsideEdition

Instead of using triplets, use the same persons spit for different DNA tests. 🤦
DoNKeY lol
genius
Ahah
Lmao you right
That be to easy
You no what really bothers me here. If u married to one of the girls, and if she asks her husband do u think my sister looks hot. Wtf can u really say.
If you say yes they get mad and if you say no they get mad because they look alike, you can’t win
@Elizendo then you get hit with "so you think my sister isnt goodlooking!?"
u say "babe that's a stupid question and u know it" and bc ur wife is a triplet and knows everything relating to triplets is ridiculous she agrees with u and u move on
London M she hits you because you said her question was stupid
Peter Batman just tell her she is the hotter one
Got my results back, and it shows Shrek is my Grandpa.

Is this your swamp now? 🧟♂️
OMG he is my second cousin
@Cody Schmittt k
Have u turned green yet?
I would have liked to see them to have each set of girls send samples to every DNA company and compare the companies against each other...
Randy Rose probably too expensive for them though.
Brienne Rosnett These tests aren't expensive.
$100 each they said. That would cost a lot for a small news story.
Right! Maybe they aren't actually identical and now one company looks bad.
You don't even need identicals. Any other sibling with the same parents should have the same ancestry.
This would have been a more accurate investigation if each group took all of the tests and see what the difference is between brands.
what would that do? the differntt companies have different databases so they subject parts of the dna to what they have in their database so it would be different but in a sense very close still
Having those three blondes in their identical, tight outfits is kind of the most important part of the piece though, wouldn't you agree?
They were in playboy, no outfits at all lol
I thought the same thing. This is a flawed investigation since they changed what should have been constant variables. If they're looking for which is most accurate, then the test subjects must stay the same since they're the constant variable.
You’re looking for a scientifically accurate precise result from *INSIDE EDITION*?

I kinda just want to do three different DNA tests with one person spitting in all of them and see how to answers vary.
yo if you do record it you can get tons of views
Same ive low-key been thinking about this 🤔 Can someone do it please and record it. I'm a broke college student. I know someone on here has money like that.
This is exactly the same as what you described though..
I did do this & did it 6 months apart from each other. I got 3 totally different results telling me it is nothing more then a money grab.
Bellabeans this was my exact thought the second the reveal was different!
what if i eat a lollipop before doing the test?
will i be 56% chinese, 25% tawainese, and 19% butterscotch?

i beg your pardon? 😃
i guess it’s cuz some can cost like $150 but whew it’s a lot
@@bleachzora yeah lol, i dont have that kind of money to test for DNA LOL
😂
I mean it’s a pretty normal price. they have to take the time to actually examine the thousands of markers in your DNA so of course it’s gonna cost some money
Lol
Not everyone has the same exact dna, even if you’re a twin.
Although everyone has a different DNA, if you come from the same parents then you would have the same ancestors.
@@seriousdopamine4404 unless
serious Dopamine you have to be a identical twin to share 100%
it depends on the outcome of a punnet square for the parents and grandparents
@@seriousdopamine4404 same ancestors but I think it can be passed down in different amounts but I'm not sure
This is very easy to explain and is fully expected with these tests. The issue is that for $99, these companies do not check every individual gene on your DNA. They select a random handful and test only those. Then they match each gene that they tested to a database to tell where it came from. Now, knowing that, there will be different results for each person tested because the handful of random genes that they test will be different each time. Let's say you have a very distant ancestor that is Native American. There is only a small chance that that one gene that is of Native American ancestry will get selected to be tested. So in all likelihood, your results will come back with 0% Native American ancestry even though it's there. If you repeat the test several times on the same person, eventually that gene will get randomly selected and your results will show 1% Native American.
This is what happened with the triplets. They have a lot of French and German DNA, but the random selection for each sister picked up a different amount of French and German genes.
Same with the other triplets -- they have a very small amount of Scandinavian ancestry, but the random selection caused those Scandinavian genes to be missed in two of the sisters, but detected in the third.
If you want 100% accurate repeatable results, then you can test every gene, but that will cost a lot more than $99.
@Shaun The Good Doctor but long!
Is that really how it works? Wow thank you for interesting! My mother was adopted and I've always wondered where my genetic history is from. However am reluctant to do a test because insurance scams
Is there a company that does this?
@@keke8880 sure. Bunches I think.
What company test every single gene? I don’t mind paying the money.
I dunno...maybe they kissed different people before they spit.
That would actually make sense.
Yea plus they might have eaten something right before sending the dna and that affected it too
Leilani Gutierrez I took one a while back and I’m pretty sure it said to not eat or drink for an hour
Well that’s why you’re supposed wait 30 minutes at least before spitting in the tube
@@leilanigutierrez4839 Yes ! What if I got my results back and I am 30% pizza, 40% cheese sticks , and 30% italian ..
The crazy thing is that after taking the test your DNA gets put into a national probably even world wide data base where law enforcement including the FBI and other organizations can access your info. In some cases it can be a really good thing but just not knowing who is getting that access is very scary
My results came back, turns out I'm a two thirds tomato and one third potato.
They could have tested this better by having the same person do the test with three different kits under different names
IPlayTooMuch Zombies exactly
ILIVEOFF CLOUT Someone did that and the results were significantly different
I came across a video a couple nights ago where a couple did just that.

I don't think people understand how DNA works.
I guess I really don't. I expected they would have closer results among siblings.
hmmm, so triplets shouldn't have the same results?
They have the exact same DNA. They’re identical
No, DNA is unique. They're very very close for twins, but not the same
Exactly, they aren’t going to be precisely the same; this is showing what you should expect
That's really cool

Well this makes me want to take the tube and collect some of my dogs drool and see if they say she is french
Wouldn't it have been easier to test the reliability if they only had ONE person spit in a few cups
ayden DAniels What?
Lightining Fox ayden DAniels means like if they had just one person do more than one test at the same companies.
ayden DAniels That's a good idea but having triplets do it should yield the same kinds of results. One person would have likely had 3 different results because of the way they test the samples.
Yup, they just did it this way to spice up the story - they picked hot twins and turned it into a Doublemint commercial.
maybe bacteria viruses and tiny bits of food in the split change the result
An ancestry ad popped up before this video. What a coincidence.
808pikachu TH-cam is watching you 👀
808pikachu It's not a coincidence it's the algorithm
That's literally how ad targeting works
I did two different tests : My Heritage and 23 and Me. The resuslts from both were way different to eachother. One saying I was mostly British/Irish (My Heritage) and 23 and me showing I had hardly any British/Irish. My Heritage also said I had German but 23 and me said Scandinavian. and this was only done in the last 16 months.
While I was watching this, A 23 and me commercial came on🤣
Yeah, that's how TH-cam's algorithms work.
FYI, your microphone on your phone listens to what you say 24/7 and it attempts to interpret what site/product that you'll want to see or buy next.
It's really creepy. 😱
Get the exact same person to spit in all 3 tubes and send it back LIKE SO THEY CAN DO IT
That's a great idea!
Its very expensive though
but they most likely don't read commebts
Smart....than Lisa Gurerro won’t confront the DNA test!
That’s been done but the trick is to send them all under different names. Those showed similar discrepancies as the triplets

Is no one going to talk about the fact that AncestryDNA appears to at least be the most consistent if not necessarily the most accurate? It basically gave them near exact results. That’s where I got my DNA test done, and they give you pretty detailed results, and you can even see who you’re related to and how much DNA you share. I’m glad to see that it did way better than the other two companies! 😁
Ancestry is the best
I feel like these tests can't be 100% accurate, but it shows the majority of where you're from and that would be enough to satisfy me. For the right price of course.
I've also noticed that Ancestry is better than all the rest.
Well if kids get 50/50 from mom and dad. Then going down the line will get smaller and smaller.
Kids including twins can inherit different things from parents gene wise.
You can't 100% say that EVERY single feature, blood group, dna from distant distant relatives from hundreds of years ago will all go down the line equally.
identical twins have the same dna ie the same exact ancestors
kkghost99 twins from the same zygote should be identical but in some cases, a mutation in the genetics can change things. Realistically it doesn't change their ancestry because they have inherited the exact same it's just that they have a genetic mutation.
A Homozygous twin is from the same egg that divides...so identical DNA

Alpha0727 That's genetics for you. That's literally what happens when your made...
For the Alliance
nope, it isn't - the 50 percent only go for "Male" or "female", but everything after that can and has higher percentages, depending on your ancestry.
What does ancestry bring, other than DNA ?
Shows, that this is definetly nothing you would understand
To evaluate a given confidence level, we would need more information, so your comparison to a coin toss is flawed. Secondly, very high confidence levels would probably greatly increase the cost of the tests. A 50% confidence level is reasonable for the purposes indicated and the extra costs for a high confidence level would be difficult to justify. (I don't think you understand how the term "confidence level" is used in statistics.)
I actually found a long lost brother I never knew about using these tests. Opened up a whole interesting can of worms!

Wi-FI
Baby was not scared, just followed what's happening.
This is very misleading.
1. Mother's and father's DNA does not pass down to all offspring in exactly the same ratios.
2. The number you see in the test is the AVERAGE of numerous, numerous tests which often have a great range of percentages. That's why the average is what's presented to you and isn't always exactly the same.
Stardecki I was just about to comment about this
I know they got caught selling the data to third parties . no one seems to care. also , it can be used as proof in what is called familial dna in court if one of your relatives commits a crime.
No, but as identical triplets/quads, they should, by definition have identical ancestral DNA
Jeez, do you know at least how twins appear? Identical twins have identical DNA.
Stardecki but the egg split so it the same egg
Lisa always exposing people 😂... I love it 😂
I feel like a good way to test these is to buy multiple kits and have someone fill out the 2nd paper for you but have the same person spit in both tubes
I used 23AndMe, and it identified me and all of my family members as being related and what our relationships were, and gave very similar ancestry information (which I know historically to be correct). It even got my Middle Eastern branch in there correctly.
I’m literally so tanned and brown curly hair and it said I was middle eastern and British. Also this comment was made when I was 12 😢
They should do this but with the same person does 3 different tests from like the same website.

You really need to do an investigation to see who has access to these records. A genetic profile of everyone who uses the service. Google, Facebook, DMV records....all sold to 3rd parties. Who's to say this data isnt sold off. They tell you its secure, but is it.

She even had pictures of her with him on her facebook and no one knew. My mom was able to find her and now they talk often.

I don’t think people actually know how DNA works cus just because your twins does not mean it’s going to be the same cus your dna is going to disrupt into them and it would be almost impossible to have to exact dna as another person twin or not
but if theyre identical they come from the same zygote, no? their dna should be the same. it’d be different if they were fraternal, however
@@heroinehei that’s not how DNA that’s like saying just cus you look like someone you have the same DNA. DNA is what makes you you everyone has different DNA it’s just how it works

Seems so
I took the ancestry test and I’m kinda happy that the triplets were almost close :T
Let's get a data base full of everybody's dna!
I don't think the people will go for it.
Let's trick them into thinking its fun.
Excellent idea. ha ha ha
Why did the biracial quadruplets show a more broad result such as only European and West African? It did not say which part of Europe like the other twins results said, and it did not say which part West Africa. That was odd.
It's just poorly edited/compiled. Their results were just as in-depth as the others, the producers just didn't feature it (probably due to time constraints) .
The story was about the inconsistencies in the DNA tests, they featured very little from the tests that were consistent.
They used AncestryDNA which doesn't give you a very broad breakdown of where exactly, unlike maybe 23andMe
You have it backwards, the quadruplets used 23andme, and Ancestry has more regions.
Trevie3 The quads and the last set of triplets all used Ancestry. The "doctors triplets" used 23 and me and the american idol triplets used family tree.
I sent a swab of the inside of my French Bulldog's jowls and the results came back *_Middle Eastern_* , it's a racket.

It’s a great way to collect information on people..
Makes you wonder about legal DNA tests for convictions
And you're exactly right to assume that because DNA is not a foolproof method in forensic science. DNA has convicted so many innocent people just saying.
If they say it's a 99% match that only narrows it down to 75 million people.
A 99% match shouldn't be allowed to convict anybody, it's not a match!
Just make sure you hire Barry Schech as your lawyer.
+Marcus Aurelius Actually, they test only in the 2% percent of DNA that is variable between human individuals not on the whole of the DNA your cells contain
So it looks like Ancestry DNA is the most accurate one.
I thought the same at first, but I feel like they have to test it on another pair of triplets or maybe even those quad sisters because the first triplets and the quad sisters used the same test, 23 and me, but only the quad showed accurate results.
I think it depends on the company, the big companies that people have heard of showed more accurate results than the ones that I havent heard of
And also a friend who's family has lived on an island in Polynesia for many many generations was told he was half English and a quarter Danish, when none of his ancestors for many generations even left the island during their entire lives
These results will change over time as more and more people use the services. It is still in its infantcy, but is a really good tool to use especially for people who have no idea what their ancestry is.
A great tool for insurance companies to raise your rates too.
Wow after the backlash they received for not showing us the results yesterday they upload it now lol
I was hoping Inside Edition would explain the outliers
A better test would have been to send a sample to each of the testing centers to see how they compare.
*Great job Inside Edition.*
*Could you do one more?*
*Get the same person to send a sample 3 times, from different locations, using 3 different names and at 3 different time periods, all to the same set of companies.*
Yes, like an ACTUAL scientific investigation.
It's a hoax company. Tried it twice and I got different results.
Lusus Love that’s because only 50% of DNA is analyzed. You most likely got some DNA analyzed one time, that you didn’t the other.
James Heathcote What do you mean?

Deathrape2001 your comment made me laugh :) hilarious
I wonder what would happen if the same person sent their dna in numerous times.
Probably the identical test results was the fact that the labs figured out what was going on and only used one of the test kits . . . then recorded for all of the siblings
so the only two you can trust is ancestryDNA & 23AndMe
Also, National Geographic Geno 2.0 and FTDNA
They were triplets, not clones, so all those results were consistent.
Top Mog they were IDENTICAL triplets. There shouldn't be significant variation.

Twins don't have identical DNA. That's not how DNA works.
SuperEllyh Actually, true identical twins do start out with identical DNA. As they grow and age there may be minor variations that creep into their DNA as cells divide and DNA copies itself. Copies of copies of copies lead to increasing differences from the original fertilized egg cell. However, these variations won't alter their ethnicity.
Identical twins have identical DNA because the fertilized zygote divided into separate daughter cells containing the same DNA. You might be thinking of fraternal or semi-identical twins.
It won't alter their ethnicities but it alters their nucleotide sequence which is the basis of comparison of the different ethnicities.
bananapuffs1 turning genes on or off does not stop them from being present.
Fraternal twins don't have identical DNA.
But identical twins do.
