Dad sends message from his boat to daughter leaving on plane in extraordinary moment

He went above and beyond as she flew away

It’s not so uncommon to receive a nice little message before you travel somewhere.

You know, like a quick ‘safe flight’ text from your parents or a ‘have a good one’ reply to your Instagram post with an airport pint.

But this dad really one-upped everyone else for his daughter.

The bloke sent a message from his boat as she left on a plane in a pretty extraordinary moment.

Camille Zea was heading off for a ‘big trip to Europe’ from Los Angeles International Airport when her dad wanted to make sure she got a proper sendoff.

And no, it wasn’t just a ‘have the best time’ message with a clip of him waving.

Instead, her dad took his boat out into the Pacific Ocean and waited for her plane to take off and fly over.

Zea took to TikTok to share the incredible gesture that he conjured up.

The man used the wake of his boat on the waves to move it in a figure of eight, creating an infinity symbol in the water.

He was perfectly placed for his daughter to see it from the window of her plane seat, as she wrote in the caption: “Infinity times infinity. right back at ya dad.”

With The Temper Trap’s ‘Sweet Disposition’ playing in the background, users said they were ‘crying’ watching it as they asked: “Who’s cutting my onions.”

Others put: “I am UNWELLLLLL. Love had no limits.”

While many were left ‘sobbing’, users called it ‘so sweet’ as they decided: “I need to call my dad.”

And one joked: “I would’ve jumped out of the plane and onto his boat to give him a hug.”

Plenty of users simply said: “He’s our dad now too.”

He looks pretty proud of himself. (TikTok/Camille Zea)

Racking up over eight million views, the dad certainly outdid himself in sending a simple message to his daughter.

Zea later shared another clip calling the moment ‘extremely special’ as she expressed how amazed she was by it going so viral.

She then shared photos of him in a ‘dad reveal’ as well as sharing some behind the scenes of him steering his boat for that infinity sign.

And it is pretty sweet, as he’s smiling up at the plane in the sky while creating his absolute work of art in the water. What a bloke.
