A new filter is taking over Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok, and it’s doing what all great filters do—stirring up feelings. The “Your Disney Twin” effect promises to reveal your cartoon counterpart by stitching your face together with a random Disney character.

The results are all over the place: some shockingly accurate, others laughably off. But no matter the match, one thing’s certain—people are absolutely losing it.


"It gave me Jafar. I’m still recovering."

The surprise factor is half the fun

Unlike filters that sculpt your jawline or smooth your skin, this one leans fully into chaos. You might be hoping for Belle or Simba, only to get Scar or Yzma instead. There’s no rhyme or reason to it, and that unpredictability is what’s fueling the laughter.

"It’s like spinning the Disney wheel of destiny."

How to try it yourself

Ready to meet your animated doppelgänger? Here's how to find the filter:

Snapchat

  1. Open Snapchat and head to the camera screen.
  2. Tap the smiley face to open Lens Explorer.
  3. Search for “Your Disney Twin.”
  4. Activate the filter and brace yourself.

Instagram

  1. Open the Stories camera and swipe to the effects browser.
  2. Use the magnifying glass to search for “Your Disney Twin.”
  3. Select and tap “Try It.”

TikTok

While TikTok doesn’t host the filter directly, most users record on Snapchat or Instagram and upload their reactions to TikTok using the tag #DisneyTwin.

The reactions are the real entertainment

Some of the best moments come from users sharing their shock, horror, or surprising pride in the character they get.

@itsmecharlieeee got Hades and said, “Guess I’m feeling villainous today.”
@lilylaughsalot landed Goofy and just muttered, “Can’t argue with that.”
@sarahsmiles was gifted Yzma and replied, “Honestly? I feel attacked, but also… she’s kind of fabulous.”
@johndoughnut ended up with Quasimodo: “Guess I’m ringing the bells today!”

"I feel attacked... but also fabulous."

What makes it go viral

Disney nostalgia is powerful—but so is a good self-own. This filter delivers both in one swipe. Whether you’re a villain, a sidekick, or an unexpected leading lady, the surprise is part of the magic.

Join the fun (or the roast)

Think you're destined to be Ariel or Eric? Don’t be so sure. Try the filter for yourself and see who you *really* are in the Disney universe.

Try the filter, save your video, and share it with the tag #DisneyTwin. Brave enough? Then you’re ready.

Passenger steals his seat on a flight—his clever revenge leaves her speechless

Air travel is stressful enough without entitled passengers making it worse. Whether it's armrest hoggers or seat recliners, there's always someone who makes the journey unpleasant. But one airline passenger took things to another level—flat-out refusing to move from a seat she didn't pay for.

Reddit user u/compile_commit shared the wild story, which involved his cousin flying from Ahmedabad to Kolkata on Indigo Airlines. He had specifically booked an exit row aisle seat and even paid extra for it. However, when he boarded, he found a woman already sitting there, completely unwilling to move.
