In recent days, several social media users have been sharing a video of a unique marriage proposal that took place at Bridal Veil Falls, a waterfall located in Yosemite National Park, California, United States.

In the recording circulating on platforms such as X, a couple can be seen standing on the highest rock of a mountain, while both are wearing delicate clothing such as a white dress and a gray suit.

A few seconds later, the man decided to touch the bride's shoulder to get her attention and begin the romantic proposal. When the woman turned around, the man pulled a small box from his shorts and stood in front of her.

When he showed her the ring, the young woman, overcome with emotion, covered her face and with a slight nod of her head, responded positively to the proposal. Upon receiving her response, the man tried to kneel down to place the jewel on her ring finger.

However, due to the force of the current, the man quickly lost his balance and slid down the enormous rock of the waterfall, ending up submerged in the water , a few meters from the place.

Despite the significant distance, the man suffered no physical injuries , thanks to the impact being cushioned by the water. The bride, meanwhile, had to watch as her fiancé was swept away by the tributary.

While the proposal at Bridal Veil Falls ended happily with the woman's affirmative response, many social media users questioned the need to put her partner's life in danger.

“I wanted the proposal to be unforgettable, and I succeeded, but for all the wrong reasons,” another social media user noted, noting that he almost lost the ring and his own life in the end.

For their part, several people emphasized that the situation was quite comical, because it's not something conventional and those small anecdotes create the most important memories.
