[Opinions] It's a hoax (m)
I think it must be a hoax. They were supposedly born in 1984? Why then in 1998 were the Chukwu octuplets in Texas hailed as the "world's first surviving set of octuplets" (and then they didn't all survive). Also, octuplets surviving and thriving so well as to all do gymnastics???? Near impossible if not totally impossible. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/239458.stm(EDITED to add: Sorry, if linked doesn't work, just copy & paste)

They are not real. The most surviving babies in one birth are still the McCaughey (?) septuplets.

Definitely not real octupletsCould be why their names are so trendy, because someone just recently made them up!That's the only site about them on the internet. Don't you think if they were real octuplets they'd have been in the news a bit more?

Agreed! They're definitely not real. I bet . . .. . . that they're actually a gymnastics team who thought it would be cute to pretend that they were octuplets. That, or it's just all one girl with too much time on her hands! The pictures are too bad to tell if they're all the same girl.
