22 People Took a Stroll Down Memory Lane and Flawlessly Recreated Their Pics

Ever since 1826, when the first photograph was taken, people have a way of traveling back in time and rekindling old memories. By looking at old photographs of ourselves or our loved ones, we get the chance to see how much we’re all connected to one another. And an even better way to see that is to put the old pic and the recreated pic side by side.

Recreating an imprint of a precious memory is an ongoing trend that we at Bright Side absolutely adore, and apparently many people are getting pretty good at making past memories come to life. We hope you enjoy 22 of the best-recreated pics that we’ve got lined up for you below.
