If this couple was preserved for decades in the frozen ice, then we can only imagine what other things have been stored away in ice just waiting to be discovered. The ice was like a time capsule, keeping this couple literally frozen in the World War II era.

A Swiss couple who disappeared from their farm in the Alps during World War II have finally been found, 75 years later, mummified in a glacier.

Marcelin, 40, and Francine, 37, Dumoulin went missing on August 15, 1942, after leaving to milk their cows in a meadow near their home. They never returned to their family, including their six children.

A worker found the frozen bodies of a man and a woman last week during routine maintenance. The corpses were preserved in the receding Tsanfleuron glacier.

When he got closer, he noticed a collection of frozen accessories all of which dated back several decades.

Decked in World War II-era clothing, the duo was frozen close together.

The couple's youngest daughter, 79-year-old Marceline Udry-Dumoulin, told Swiss paper Le Matin their children had never stopped looking for them.

Their mother, a schoolteacher, and father, a shoemaker, likely fell into a crevice of the glacier, where their bodies were preserved.

What do you think of this discovery?
