The simple answer is , no. There has never been a credible case of a human clone. However, sheep have been cloned. If sheep can be cloned then there is no reason why humans cannot be. I probably should mention though that because of the shortened telemeres in the somatic cells that are used cloned mammals age more quickly than normal mammal offspring. Presumably, this would also be the case in humans and this does raise some ethical questions.

No, but it is not at all impossible in today's world. Nature has already provided us with natural clones already, however, and they are known as "identical twins". Rent the Arnold Schwertzennegger movie"The Sixth Day" if you want to see what happens when Arnold meets his own clone in person.

Not yet. So far only animals. It is illegal to clone humans in the US. I believe the feds made it a law a few years ago.

This religious science group claimed they did it about 10 years ago but they have never shown the proof so until they show the proof no.

yeah, i just saw it in yahoo, its from japan, i cant remember his name but he was able to produce a clone of his own that can speak, act and make gestures just like him but the drawback was, it's just sitting down.
