contents Distinct knots K, K' can sometimes share a common p/q-framed Dehn surgery. A folk conjecture held that for a fixed pair of knots, this can occur for at most one value of p/q. We disprove this conjecture by constructing pairs of distinct knots K,K' that have common Dehn surgeries for four distinct slopes. We also construct non-isotopic Legendrian knots K,K' that have contactomorphic contact (+1)-and (-1)-surgeries, disproving an analogous conjecture in contact geometry.
