Jon Stewart leaving The Daily Show wasn’t the only thing that a brought a tear to viewers' eyes on Thursday evening.
Stewart’s decision to retire from the satirical news programme was the end of an era marked with tributes from across the world.
But despite his departure looming over the final episode, everyone managed to keep a largely dry eye - or at least they did until Stewart, a decades-long Springsteen fan, was spotted throwing some unabashed shapes during 'Born to Run'.
Of all the parts of #JonVoyage, watching him dance with joy with his kids… I mean… https://t.co/5hfIkoTcKw

Jon Stewart dancing with his kids was almost too much.

Stewart’s replacement Trevor Noah clearly has some big shoes to fill.
