Footage of a pilot’s daring proposal made in midst of skydiving with his girlfriend has left the internet startled. Shared on his official Instagram handle, the video clip features a man named Ray who’s also an FAA-trained parachute rigger and his partner named Katie leaping out of the plane and plunging into the open skies. In an unexpected turn of events, Ray plans to propose to his girl for marriage right at the point where both are dangling at an exit altitude of approximately 14,000 feet. Not just that, halfway into the footage the pilot flashes the ring that he managed to keep this whole time clutched between his teeth during his dangerous feat. 

As the clip opens, the pair has already deployed parachute post a free fall and is seemingly enjoying the thrilling activity clad in their skydiving suits. The woman, obvious about the proposal her man is about to initiate, is seen relishing the blue skies in his forearm. The pilot, meanwhile, flashes a ring into the camera that he had hidden and carried with himself in his teeth. In what some users called a daring act, the man produces the ring in front of his partner and makes the risky proposal, all the while trying to concentrate on diving. Katie, appearing stunned at first grins ear to ear and says ‘yes!’. The two couple have a happy ending as they continue to enjoy their adventure.

However, an attempt at a ‘special’ once-in-a-lifetime proposal didn’t end too well for a Michigan man Logan Jackson, who took his girlfriend  Maria Gugliotta, to her favourite site Lake Michigan in Grand Haven, where he planned to propose. As soon as Logan attempted to produce the ring out of his shorts’ pocket to propose Maria and knelt on the slippery wet sand, he lost balance and slipped right into the water. In the footage that emerged online, Maria’s aspiring partner had stepped on seaweed and fell, and struggled to stay afoot as she watched patiently, confused. Although, Logan sprang back up not letting a little hilarious mishap spoil the moment for his girlfriend, and ultimately proposed, as their leashed dog barked in the vicinity.
