Google Earth leads son to mother after 25 years apart
In 1986, a young Indian boy named Saroo Brierley hopped on the wrong train, ended up in the bustling city of Calcutta, and thought he had lost track of his family forever. 25 years later, he has finally made contact with his loved ones, thanks to Google Earth. After being completely lost for a month, Brierley was adopted and subsequently grew up in Australia, where he always wondered what had happened to his family.
