    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.
    The authorities were alerted after locals searching for firewood spotted the men deep in the forest in Quang Ngai province's Tay Tra district.
    A team was set up to look for the pair - now aged 82 and 41 - and found them after a five hour search.
