A father and son have been found living in the jungle more than 40 years after they fled US bombing during the Vietnam War.

Ho Van Thanh left his home village with his baby son Ho Van Lang in 1971 after a mine blast killed his wife and two of his children.

The pair apparently survived by foraging for fruit, lived in a timber treehouse and wore loin cloths made from tree bark.

After spending that many years in the jungle would you really want to go into modern society? I know I bloody wouldn't
 
They were happy there as this is the only way they now know how to live. This is going to have very bad repercussions. They should have just left them alone.
