The man soon concluded that his dad was probably waiting outside the house for his mum to return.

It was truly a precious heartfelt moment that happened to be captured by the satellite images on Google Earth.

Ending off the emotional tweet, the man shared that it’s his wish for Google Earth never to update the image of his parents’ home.

The man is not the only person to have chanced upon their loved ones on Google Earth.

Other Twitter users have since replied to him, sharing their own experiences of seeing their beloved family members under similar circumstances.
