Beer Steak Bullshit

The Dionne Quintuplets - five identical quintuplets were born in 1934 and are known to be the first set of identical quintuplets to survive for more than a couple hours. They were born 2 months premature in Corbeil, just outside of Callander, Ontario, Canada and became international celebrities straight after their birth.

Five sisters, who prefer to be called the Dionne Sisters, rather than the Dionne Quintuplets are also known as the only identical quintuplet girls ever born. Annette and Cecile Dionne are last two remaining Dionne sisters who are still alive. Emilie Dionne died in 1954 of suffocation during epileptic seizure, Marie Dionne passed away in 1970 due to blood clot of the brain, Yvonne Dionne lived till 2001 and died of cancer. There were movies filmed in the 30’s that were inspired by the Dionne Quintuplets. It’s quite something to give birth to five kids.

The Dionne Quintuplets are pictured in the image above with Mitchell Hepburn, the youngest Premier in the history of Ontario.
