Meet Luke and Adam Monastero.

These two 21-year-old fraternal twins from Canada have each known they were gay for years but didn't tell each other until recently. Then they decided to come out to their parents at the same time—and record the whole thing.

"They think Luke is gay. They have an idea, but they have no idea about me, like not a single clue," Adam said in the introduction.

Luke and Adam placed a hidden camera in their kitchen to catch their parents' reaction to the news, and while initially freaking them out by saying that they have "shocking" news, it turned out to be a great thing.

"You know what? It's ultimately your life," their mother, who confirmed Adam's previous statement about having a feeling about Luke but not Adam, said.

Luke explained he was afraid their sexual orientation would drive a wedge within their extended family, to which mama bear responded, "Well, you know what, Luke? If it does, hon, that's their choice. It cannot be your worry or your burden. You can't live your life for someone else...I'm just so glad you're not keeping it from us anymore."

Dad seemed cool with the news, too, just sitting there and enjoying his chicken.

"We're officially out of the closet! I'm a free man! I feel alive," they tell the camera at the end.

"I feel like my parents' reactions were completely better than any of us thought they were going to be, and hopefully this will show you guys that people don't really care and your parents will love you no matter what," Luke says.

"That's kind of why we're making these videos—to just show people that are gay in the closet you know you can just be who you are and not to be afraid," Adam adds.
