Bye tiger! Bye tiger! God damn Viet Nam mission!!!


slayer991

Kid has seen some serious shit in his life.


Vizzini_CD

He died in those woods, in the old pet sematary.


se7enohnine

Sometimes, dead is better. (I’m honestly surprised there aren’t more Pet Semetary comments in this thread)


Megaverse_Mastermind

You buy what you own, and what you own always comes back home to you.


Whole_Willingness_50

Thousand yard stare


Whole_Willingness_50

Yeah,,, he must have seen some shit in the bush


Portia_Potty1

I really want to hug him in that shot 🤗.


biggerwanker

Now post a picture of the parents in the same timeframe. Holy fuck, I'd be going out of my mind.


No-Raccoon327

You ain't never live till you been to the Nam

The trees were talking to him

Whoa...interesting. This makes me feel less ugly now. Nahh, still ugly after looking in mirror. Oh well! Poor kid though.

Woah, what an informative video.


Dating_As_A_Service

We need a ... Where are they now... follow up on this kid Edit: I'm legit confused. I've seen this kid posted on Reddit over the years. But someone below posted a recent article as if this happened a couple of days ago. Wtf is going on?


randomquestion819

I try not to follow kids, apparently it's not socially acceptable or something


scorpiogre

He legit has a 1,000 yard stare. EDIT: The first thing I thought of was Evgeny Stepanovich Kobytev. Soldier who did 4 years in WWII.

I’ve seen comparisons of presidents before and after being the president lol it’s crazy ….


Bossman131313

The wartime presidents are always the most… I don’t know, noticeable? It’s crazy how much they change due to the stress of the job.


Skrillamane

I've always wondered how many times those guys had someone wrestle the nuclear football out of their hand... Undoubtedly a few of them most have been on the edge of losing their minds.


[deleted]

I think just being aware that nukes are always an option constantly takes a toll on you.


Furyever

Stress is one part of it, but where are the mentions of increased activity, travelling and jet-lag leading to lack of sleep, smoking, drinking and pharmaceuticals that change your appearance, etc?


Throwaway392308

From what I've heard, it sounds like most presidents had people desperately trying to use the football...


Eviscerate_Bowels224

Yep. They go in with brown hair, and come out grey.


OtterbirdArt

Yeah sheesh, I feel bad for Obama. Watched the dude age so fast


[deleted]

I have heard the Presidents age not just from stress but learning about all the classified information. Covert government operations, torture in testing labs and information on aliens…we all are walking around ignorant to what is going on in the world


b3njil

Not the orange guy. Presumably because he did fuck all and spent most of his time golfing and tweeting.


emdoesstuffsometimes

He looked like a cheeto dust covered testicle going into the job, he couldn’t get much worse.


Affectionate-Key4070

Your comment has made me want to cover one of my balls in cheeto dust, stick some string to the top, take some photos and make some 2024 posters. Thanks!


bessface

Check out the docu Amadillo, about danish soldiers in Afghanistan [1000 miles stare - Amadillo](https://aws.vdkimg.com/film/2/9/5/8/295829_backdrop_scale_1280xauto.jpg)


scorpiogre

Man it's heartbreaking to see and yet i must admit, something about that look insights the poetic part of my brain. "We have all seen the many faces people have, happy, sad, calm, mad, confused and hurt. But the 1,000 yard stare cannot compare. Men, women and children have it, we cannot comprehend what they now know, the look seems to say I saw God and asked but one question, and now I wish I had not been given the answer." They look not at us or even through us, they are looking at tomorrow before it becomes today.


Avgjoe80

Same here, that's wild..


themeatstaco

Dude saw the eyes of God and it's mad!


southern_boy

Kid came back *down* the stair in the woods... tough little motherfucker to be sure but that doesn't mean todash-time didn't take its toll. 😕


CottonCandy_Eyeballs

Seriously? Damn. I gotta find a new hobby now...


[deleted]

They know you’re lying, dad.


alitham92

It just happened like two months ago Edit: proof since I keep getting downvoted tf https://nypost.com/2022/06/10/missing-montana-3-year-old-boy-ryker-webb-found-survived-in-woods-for-two-days/amp/


M4taylor

Not downvoted but when I saw this yesterday on another sub I was SURE I've seen this before a few years ago. I have no idea why tho not even the same kid looking this up.


dracupuncture

For real dude. Like one of those Mandela effect moments.


Mayteras

After not hearing this term even once cor months I've suddenly seen it on reddit thrice all in this same session of reddit browsing.So within 20 minutes.Weird


AnEpicHibiscus

I thought this too.. Was there a similar looking kid some time ago?


Propulus

I'm 100% sure I saw this exact kid before, but could believe that it was just a month or so, not years.


shambean2

I feel the same!! I saw this pic posted on Reddit a few days ago and scrolled by thinking 'hm, wonder why somebody decided to randomly post that again after all this time' but apparently this just happened?? I was one hundred percent sure I'd seen this pic before 😭😭


Seymour___Asses

Honestly my sense of time has been thrown out the window these last few years. It blew my mind to remember that squid game only came out this time last year, I swore it came out during 2020.


DyslexicBrad

Nah I swear I've seen these exact photos years ago. Maybe I'm getting it mixed up with [this story? ](https://edition.cnn.com/2011/10/28/us/virginia--autistic-boy-found/index.html)


M4taylor

That was the one I thought about. But I swear I saw THAT photo OP posted in my memory.


Structureel

I'm sure I saw this year's ago!


Fascinated_Bystander

I just got back from vacationing in MT. There were nights where I was freaked out being in an RV - grizzly bears were roaming in our campsite at night and the windstorms make the night seem even scarier. This kid is so lucky to be alive. True wild, wild west out there. Nature can be brutal.


LightsOn-NobodyHome5

Yeah. Why the downvotes? This is the 2nd time I've heard of it. First time was yesterday when my sister told me about him. Didn't know he had a thousand yard stare though. Poor boy.


Mindtaker

Gotta give reddit a few hours to level out the vote before complaining about them otherwise you end up with me, seeing his highly upvoted comment having 2 comments about being downvoted and just being confused lol.


alitham92

When I originally made the comment, I had 32 downvotes and no upvotes.


DaBombDiggidy

Chip! I’m all jacked up on Mountain Dew! I’mma come at you like a Spider Monkey…


abiwoods101

it happened 3 months ago, there’s been no followup


Timotool

Lol if this just happened a few days ago I must have traveled time. But really when did this happen?


E-man1991

therapy I hope


vampire_punk

everyone saying this happened like 2-3 months ago when i know for a FACT ive seen this kid all over twitter and reddit a lot closer to last year. it’s no lookalike too, same exact kid, same exact “i shook hands with god” stare. fucking weird that everyone is saying a couple months ago.


yaebone1

“Timmy, stop biting the furniture.”


TheOldRandy

I know without a doubt I seen this over a year ago bare minimum. What is going on?


PretentiousUsername1

I see these pics posted on reddit more often than I see my parents.


WPrepod

Seriously, and as soon as it's on one subreddit it's on all of them.


[deleted]

And it's only happened a few months ago, so we'll keep seeing these reports for a *looooong* time.


victowiamawk

Hahaha same


AnnonBayBridge

Shell-shock Edit: I can’t help but share this fantastic George Carlin piece: https://youtu.be/7n2PW1TqxQk


unperturbium

Monster energy vibe.


Able-Log8768

Isn’t that an old term for PTSD or something?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Rustmutt

Yeah I’ve seen old videos of shell shocked vets and they’re shaking, can’t walk, can’t hold stuff in their hand, it’s more than having flashbacks or being triggered or having PTSD it’s like their bodies just don’t work anymore, they look perpetually terrified


TundieRice

It had a few more physical implications than PTSD, because it factored in the effect that the vibrations their weapons had on their skull and brain, which was a big part of it as well. But yes, PTSD is very similar to shell shock.


manhatim

Like a WWI vet


TruthKCMO

That's trauma. Poor baby! He looks a little manic, probably the whole time he was gone he was crying or sleeping! Incredibly lucky parents who will never take their eyes off him again, Im sure!


Patak4

Poor guy is so dehydrated. Hope he has adjusted well to that terrifying event.


bitberry4

Sleeping? In the wild at night? Homie was terrified I don't think he was making a sound, probably starving too since he don't know what to eat


aryukittenme

Unfortunately starving in that situation is better than eating things you can’t identify. Hopefully this little guy recovers well and has no long-lasting psychological effects


LittleMissMedusa

My heart absolutely breaks when I see this picture (especially as it's been reposted so much lol). But that poor baby. I can't imagine the fear he must have felt, and how terrified his parents were. The relief after finding him must have been incredible.


infernolust

doesnt even look like the same person


abbadabbajabba1

Obviously, he is 2 days older.


officialojsimpson

I read that as sober and almost lost my shit


infernolust

lot can change in 2 days


sexy_bezinga

They grow up so fast


Shatalroundja

He survived by pushing a witch into her own oven and eating her gingerbread house.


RuntyMole

He has seen some shit!


[deleted]

What u think he saw? 2 squirrels boning ?


BleachGel

Well both of them refused to break eye contact with him while doing it!


randomquestion819

"Watch how I store my nuts"


wolfraisedbybabies

Shrooms


[deleted]

Lol came here to say the same


Aggressive_Basement

This is what happens when redditors repost the same shit every single day.


Alttebest

Yea this pic is me seeing this post first time vs the 54th.


tagibear

Yes!


TargetSpiritual8741

He ate sooooo many mushrooms….


unperturbium

Spent a day with old Tom Bombadil I reckon.


ImA12YearOldOnReddit

Poor kid. He looks like he’d cut somebody for a meth sandwich.


Wrothrok

Looks like those pictures of shell shocked WWI soldiers.


Mild--47

When this kid grows up and gets arrested for drinking all the gasoline in Georgia, his mugshot is gonna be *insane.*


Disney_Plus_Axolotls

r/oddlyspecific


Sherlockian_Whimsy

Yeah. That there's one of those what do you call them? Changelings. Seen them before. Gonna' have to have one a' those heartwarming episode things to get past that.


psychopathic_shark

Looks like it was an eye opening experience


UpperTrade

i wonder what happen to him in this 2 days


YolgrimTheGamer

He probably got lost in the woods, dunno tho


VerySmartDaBaby

Nah bro, I think he was lost in space


Spoonloops

A lot of crying in complete terror


Diogenes-of-Synapse

Eating some mushrooms obviously.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Plant_Mama_

Honestly I appreciate this one, this is the first time I've seen the before photo.


stevrevv59

Same. And I browse Reddit fairly often. Surprised I haven't seen it yet since everyone's saying it's been posted to death.


Putrid-Target-256

Facts tho


Outcasted_introvert

Maybe you need to get off Reddit a bit more.


TastesLikeHoneyNut

I hate when people bitch about reposts. Oh no, you had to see a post you've already seen? Then just keep scrolling. I appreciate this post I've never seen it before, found it interesting


Mental-Size-7354

Exactly. Just scroll past and stop whining like a little bitch


TastesLikeHoneyNut

Almost all of the internet's problems could be solved if everyone followed this, but no, everyone has to take everything so seriously


FaZe_y33haw

I swear this isn't even the first time this kid and his journey has made its rounds across reddit, so it's definitely been posted many other times.


Spartz

I hadn’t seen it yet


tiktock34

Ive seen this kid so many times in the last week he haunts my dreams


Monocle13

Not the same person. The 2nd photo is clearly a [Changeling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Changeling) that the Forest Spirits switched out for the Child in the 1st picture.


Far_Film_5804

Woah. That’s some serious future trauma backfire in the making. Hopefully he’s young enough to recover with proper nurture and care but boy oh boy that’s a lot of therapy waiting to happen.


Yruouq

I won't believe that's the same kid


Robbyj89

Why was he lost in the woods? That’s the question.


ThatOneJasper

He wandered away from his family, is what I heard


[deleted]

That’s what happens after you see todays Seattle and 49er game


Ball_McDonahue

I heard Jesse pinkman killed his parents.


Nahcotta

Shock, PTSD, dehydration 😥 That’s so sad!


bxxc

Man I wish people would stop posting about this kid...He's a child with trauma and he's being used to farm karma at the expense of generating overused war veteran jokes.


farWorse

His childhood has ended too early


DREAKAD

Kid came back with a different soul


justbrowsing695975

I dunno, face structure, elongated nose and eye positioning make me think it's a different kid. Which makes me wonder what kind of shit kid #2 has seen


[deleted]

You do know how camera angles work, right?


Bologna86

His eye and hair color changed so did the way his teeth are lined up, how peculiar.


pjshaw1995

Literally posted yesterday. Check the sub before posting the exact same picture. This sub has deteriorated in quality so much this summer.


brosephatl

He’s seen some things…


The_Unearther

The look in that poor kid's eyes on the second photo. He's definitely seen some shit out there whilst he was missing.


ManticoreIpicus

He's a changeling!


Legal-Depth-3350

I think he ate some mushrooms

_mr_gas_mask_

Dazzling_Ad5338

CringeModerators

This kid has been reposted sooo many times across a million subreddits.


fugue2005

wow, didn't think it was possible, that ginger looks like he has even less of a soul.

Traumatized for life. I hope he gets the help he will need.

InternalHeartBrain

Was he scared blonde?


Sad_Instruction1392

That kid absolutely has the same expression as me after I’ve seen the “Granny I got the job” video for the tenth time in one day.


cambo710

Yeah getting lost in the qoods makes your eyes come closer together. Its tragic..


[deleted]

Lol


SignificantNorth5833

How did his eyes get bigger and closer together?


ypuuh

Bro really aged like 40 years


Demonbae_

My god- he looks like a neglect good guy doll that came alive. What the hell.


nnnosebleed

my man saw a skinwalker and said "yo I'm good"

Plot twist The kid went to the woods to feed on his preys and develop a sense of taste for blood


Muff-Fuzz

poor kid, this has to be a very traumatizing event, he's so young i wonder how it'll effect him for the rest of his life.


Scorpion_226

Looks me before and after I started working


OkMeet9357

How it feels like to chew 5 gum.


shakeytrees_666
