Tyler Ivanoff found the surprise of a lifetime in a bottle on the shores of western Alaska earlier this month.

"I showed my kids and when I got home later that evening around midnight, I shared it on Facebook," Ivanoff told ABC News. After several of his friends shared the post overnight, about 10 reporters reached out to him. The post eventually landed in the hands of Rossiya 1, a state-owned Russian media network. Ivanoff said it only took one day for the network to track down the author of the letter.

"From the Russian Fleet Far East shipping Company VRXF depot ship Sulak," the translated note read."I greet those who find the bottle and ask to respond to the address Vladivostok-43 VRXF Sulak to all crew."
