  2. God bless her.

  3. Wow that's fantastic God bless them for that help what a great ending

  4. Thank goodness for this technology. It's proven to be very effective in locating lost people and animals in dense vegetation.
    Im glad this little girl was found, rescued, and is now back home.

  5. Whyyyyy do kids do this? Why do they just wonder off into the woods and then just lay down in the dirt? Over the past like 5 months I've seen a few videos of kids being found by drones after getting lost in the woods and they were all sleeping in the grass somewhere. No survival instincts at all.

  6. Thank the Lord

  7. Well done!

  8. Where is the thermal imaging πŸ˜…

  9. If you follow David polities you heard stories of kids going missing in woods and wake up just to be found confused about how they got there. Bigfoot?

  10. I'm not sure what thermal imaging technology they were using but with FLIR, she would have lit up like a Christmas tree. Hats off to the drone supplier. We needed some good news in the country that cannot be corrupted by conspiracy theories.

  11. Thank you to the company. And why hasn't the government got this for searching for people??!?!?!!! We know they use this in wars. FFS.

  12. Bravo ❀

  13. ❀❀❀❀❀❀❀

  14. it's about time !!! They start using that technology for Good / Finding Missing hikers etc.

  15. Excellent!! It's great to hear about positive use of such technology.

  16. Heartbreaking imagery, geez. 😒

  17. Well thats some good news. I hope her name is Penny.

    A penny saved is a penny earned.

  18. Thank God she was found safely! πŸ™πŸΌ Prayers for a full mental and physical recovery for her and also her family.

    And God Bless the drone owners/operators for assisting!! πŸŽ‰

  19. Parents. Jail time

  20. Definitely would buy one of those drones just because

  21. Thank you to that company who supplied that drone!

  22. How long was she out there? She looks like she needs food. Thank goodness they found her, but her laying there with them not calling her name? She wasn't alert? Calling them back? Strange for her to be just laying like that.

  23. ABC news is for the birds.
    But praise the One True God for the return home of that child. πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ™Œ

  24. That ancor is a joke. Just look at himπŸ˜‚ ABC used this lost young girl to look good. Even though they dont care. They just used her to immediately talk about how bad Donald Trump is. "See we care about kids, so that means Trump doesn't. Vote Democrat because we are the good guys and Republicans are the bad guys"

  25. Well done drone Pilot!! You are brilliant! Thank you and God bless everyone on the search and rescue mission ❀❀❀

  26. Continue to bless that company increase and multiplication

  27. Brave child thank you Lord yo have protected her.

  28. She must’ve been scared poor baby! God is good! πŸ™πŸ½πŸ™ŒπŸ½

  29. This this culmination of God's creations coming together to save a life! This is what we are purposed for, to save lives, not to destroy! Aim for the good in life!

  30. Could've shouted out the company that found her. Good deed on their part πŸ«‘πŸ‘

  31. GIrl lost in the woods…what a horror. So happy she's been found safe and sound.

  32. Still don't like abc news nor David Muir
