Fred Shekoufeh looks a lot older than 15, but then again his son, Eric, doesn't look four either.
Shekoufeh and son, who live in La Mesa, California, share a unique bond that goes beyond genetics: They were both born on February 29.
Eric is celebrating his 5th official birthday while his dad is celebrating his 15th on the same day. Both father and son were born on February 29, an event that has a 1 in 2.1 million chance of happening, according to Time.com.
Fred Shekoufeh, a native of Iran, didn't realize his birthday was unusual until 1979 when he moved to the U.S. and immigration officials commented on it.
It wasn't clear at first. "It's confusing," Shekoufeh told HuffPost.

Eric Shekoufeh said sharing such an unusual birthday with his dad is "pretty incredible," but admits being born on February 29 has some challenges.

"I get lots of jokes about whether I should celebrate on Feb. 28 or March 1," Eric said, adding that he tries to stretch it out on both days.

"It's a weird day. People don't recognize it on social media, but when they find out, they never forget it."

Oh, I understand.
He has actually celebrated his birthday on the real date 15 times, while his son has done so 5 times; both were born on the 29th February.

I almost felt t'was a joke too. For better understanding read xreal comment. Feb 29 doesn't show up all the time on the calender, sometimes it ends at 28. So the man was born on this rare date likwise his son and ever-since he was born, the date February 29 has showed up only 15 times.
