Darts fan, 33, is double of new world champ Luke Littler, 17, and baffles fans with uncanny resemblance
DARTS fan Christopher Roger is the double of new arrows world champ Luke Littler.
The mechanic, 33, gets loads of comments from fans who mistake him for “The Nuke”, 17.
He constantly gets bombarded with shouts of “How are you going to spend your winnings?” after Littler pocketed £500,000 by winning the world title.
The mechanic said: “People have been making comments like ‘well done Luke’.
But Chris, of Bradford, said: “I’m dreadful at darts. I hit the wall more than the dartboard.”
Girlfriend Sarah Marshall, 31, triggered an online flurry when she posted a video of him watching the 17-year-old darts ace in the World Darts Championship at Ally Pally.
She added the jokey comment: “How is Luke Littler on my TV and sat in my living room?”
Her video has been watched an incredible three millions times and had 250,000 likes.
Operational support manager Sarah, of Bradford, West Yorkshire, said: “When Littler was in the final last year I thought Christopher looked like him.
“He pulls the same expressions as Luke and when Christopher used to play rugby his walk off the pitch was exactly the same when Luke’s walking back from his darts – the similarities are there.
“They’ve got a similar hairstyle too and when he shakes his head, it’s so similar, although Christopher doesn’t see it at all.”
Littler made history when he became the youngest ever World Darts Champion by beating Michael van Gerwen last Friday.
