Another groom doesn't read The Plunge, another fiancée gets hurt.
We offer plenty of rules on proposals, but generally, as a good starting point, you should try and avoid an activity that could cause your girlfriend to, you know, die. So we look at snorkeling, sky-diving, and lion-taming proposals with just a touch of skepticism.
Over the weekend, after a romantic hike proposal, the bride literally fell off a cliff, leading to a helicopter rescue. (According to WWMT.com, she's fine.)
From WWMT.com:
A romantic hike ended with a helicopter rescue when excitement got the best of a woman.
She and her boyfriend went up on the Billy Goat Trail Sunday, taking in the views along the Potomac River.
Once they got to a scenic spot the man popped the question. Moments after she accepted the woman fell off a cliff.
The man called 911 and the U.S. Park Police sent out a chopper.
