Pretty neat if you ask me.

It's a miracle!

Seriously, though, it's neat. Although, reading about how his brother died not to long after he got lost really made me feel bad for the mother. She lost both of her sons within just a month or so.

He did well to identify the location from Google Earth, having no idea even what area to look at.
