Two brothers who live 1,000 miles apart are getting a lot of attention after their heartwarming reunion went viral.

Aaron Davis, 9, misses his older brother, Adam, 19, every day. Adam moved from their home in Columbus, Ohio, to Dallas to study psychology at Southern Methodist University.

The two have kept in close touch despite the distance.

"He sends me different videos of him playing basketball and will ask, 'Hey, what do I need to work on?' and I'll give him advice," Adam told ABC News.

The brothers were apart for the holidays because flights were too expensive. So for spring break, Adam bought a ticket and surprised Aaron.

“My mom picked me up from the airport, and we come home, and I stay in the garage,” he said. “My mom goes inside and tells Aaron to go to the garage to get the groceries out of the car, and when he comes out, he sees me, and he loses it.”
