British YouTuber Lord Miles has sparked a social media frenzy after revealing his dramatic plan to recover a pair of stolen AirPods Pro, nearly a year after they were stolen from his hotel room in Dubai. Using Apple’s Find My tracking system, the content creator recently traced the wireless earbuds to Jhelum, Pakistan.

In a post shared on X, Miles included a screenshot from the Find My app, pinpointing the AirPods’ location near the “2nd Wife Restaurant” on Defence Road in Jhelum. The device was shown as active just 31 minutes before the screenshot was taken, confirming that the AirPods are still in use.

“My AirPod Pros have been lost for a year in Pakistan, and guess who’s going to go there next week and get his property back!” he wrote. “They got stolen from my hotel in Dubai and made their way to Pakistan. I enabled lost mode and keep playing the ‘find me’ noise when he’s using the AirPods.”

Miles’ bold recovery plan has set the Internet abuzz, with many users calling it a futile move. “You could wait till it’s a part of India. It will be much easier to get them then. Btw get ample insurance before leaving for Pakistan. And gallons of water too. They don’t have any left now,” a user wrote.

“You mean you don’t care about the cheaper re-purchase value and getting it back at the next business trip there a year later, even with the thief using it for a year hearing the “find me’ sound all the time? That’s the best AirTag / Find my device story I’ve ever heard,” another user commented.

“You playing a dangerous game,” a third user reacted.
