Sky-diving from 10 000 feet in the air is a rush as it is, but this man decided to add another thrilling element by proposing!

When 26-year-old Blake Miller knew he wanted to propose to girlfriend Laura Wittmann, 26, skydiving seemed like the natural way to do it.

“We are both so passionate about skydiving. There was no other place that I wanted to propose than when we were on a jump together.” he told Metro UK.

He waited for the right time to pop the big question.

“I brought the ring with me every time we went to the skydiving center but it was never the right jump with the right conditions.”

Finally, the right time came, and close friend Josh Maxfield wore a camera on his helmet to film the proposal.

“He had the camera secretly filming as we were going up to altitude. I was extremely nervous. I was worried Laura would get emotional and make the jump a little harder. I made sure I proposed halfway up so we had enough time to settle down and focus on the jump.”

Wittman was surprised by the proposal, but of course said yes.

“I hadn’t expected it at all,” she said. “It was a normal jump with our friends. Blake was moving around in the plane and I was getting annoyed with him because you are not supposed to do that. When he turned around, I was kind of mad at him but then he proposed and it was really awesome.”

“I was just worried about the ring,” she explained. “I put it on my finger and closed my fist during the jump.”

Ashton Waters from Foley, Alabama  planned a romantic proposal at the place he and his girlfriend Brittany had their very first date. However, things didn’t work out as planned and Brittany ended up literally sinking in the mud during the big moment.

On their first date, Ashton and Brittany rode quad bikes in a muddy rural retreat called Boggs & Boulders near Andalusia, Alabama.

“Boggs & Boulders is a super special place for us because the first time I asked Brittany on a date she said: ‘Only if we can go to Boggs & Boulders’,” Asthon told SWNS.com. “We’ve had a lot of fun there. We both love to get out in nature and get a little dirty, we love fishing and camping and boating so this seemed like the perfect place for us.”

On the way to their destination, Ashton’s car had gotten stuck in the mud and Brittany got out to push the car. Unfortunately for Brittany, she ended up stuck in the mud herself!

Ashton decided to make the best of the situation and proposed to Brittany right here, sinking mud and all! The ring was a family heirloom from Ashton’s side of the family that he had customised to suit Brittany.

During the proposal he asked: “Since you’re stuck, will you be stuck with me for the rest of your life?”

Brittany happily accepted the proposal.

“I said ‘yes’ straight away…we were both laughing so much. It took two people to haul me out of the mud afterwards,” she said.

Back in February, popular pizza restaurant chain Domino’s gave one Australian patron the chance to win a pizza-shaped engagement ring to the value of $9,000 (R133 398). This lucky woman won, and used the unique ring to propose to her boyfriend.

Jasmine Ireland, 28, from Adelaide entered the Domino’s competition back in February to win the 18-carat yellow and white gold ring that features a pizza slice on top of it made out of ‘cheese’ and ‘pepperoni’ rubies.

Ireland was selected as the lucky winner because of how important pizza is in her relationship with partner Jamie Bowes. The pair often order pizza after Bowes finishes playing soccer.

To mark this, Ireland chose the soccer field as the perfect place to propose. After Bowes’ latest match, Ireland went down on one knee to pop the big question to him. Of course, Bowes said yes. However, Ireland slipped the ring on her own finger, not his!

This actor turned his leading lady into his fiancé when he proposed in front of 400 people during a live performance of Shrek at the Gaiety stage in Ayr, southwest coast of Scotland.

Shrek actors Mikey McCabe and Ciara Brady both belong to the Ayr Amateur Operatic Company, and have been together ever since they met during the company’s 2014 production of Jesus Christ Superstar. When they landed their Shrek roles back in September 2019, McCabe began planning the proposal, which would be the first time anyone proposed onstage during the company’s 116 year existence.

“Our story is the stage at The Gaiety, the right time and the right place.” McCabe told Daily Record,“I have to admit Shrek and Princess Fiona are not the stereotypical lovely couple. We spent the second act farting and burping at each other.”

During what theatre goers thought was another round of bows, McCabe went down on one knee to pop the big question. Of course, Brady said yes.

“I was more nervous about that than a week on stage. Fortunately for me she said yes.” McCabe said. “It was easy to get down on one knee, but getting back up in this costume with three-inch heels wasn’t easy.”

Being in full ogre costumes, the pair could not exchange rings at the time as it wouldn’t fit on Brady’s latex-covered Ogre fingers.

“I wanna make you smile whenever you’re sad / Carry you around when your arthritis is bad / All I wanna do is grow old with you.” These iconic lyrics from The Wedding Singer’s proposal scene have gone down in history, much loved by people the world over. This couple loved the movie so much that the man decided to recreate the moment for their very own proposal.

Fun-loving couple Jason and Chantel are huge fans of The Wedding Singer. So much so that Jason got in contact with the people at American airline United Airlines to recreate the famous proposal scene to pop the big question himself.

Pretending to go to the bathroom while on flight, Jason instead goes to the loudspeaker where he begins singing the song from the film. He then walks down the aisle, guitar in hand, to serenade his future bride.
