HUFFPOST

Xiao Yun, a 14 year old teen from Hangzhou, China, ran away in 2005 after a fight with her parents. Her folks assumed the worst. But in 2015, cops found a woman with Xiao Yun’s ID, which they initially thought she’d stolen. But later they learned that it was actually her. She spent years making money by teaching gamers how to play CrossFire and doing odd jobs here and there. She has since been reunited with her folks.

In 2013, 73-year-old Robert McDonough wandered away from his home in Maine. Once his family reported him missing, authorities conducted a 14-hour-long search for the man with dementia. The next morning, McDonough walked in to a news film crew that was reporting on his disappearance outside of his home. The old man emerged from the bushes and started walking towards them which left everyone speechless. Authorities were about to call off the search. “Well, sometimes timing is everything,” reporter Norm Karkos said to his camera.
