We’ve seen our fair share of proposal stories but this is by far, our favourite.

Brandon Strobhen had waited two months for the right weather to propose to his girlfriend, Nicole Nepomuceno, during a parachute jump above California.

On the way down, Brandon pulled a ring from his jump suit’s pocket, opening the box so his girlfriend could inspect it.  As he was about to hand over the ring, it slipped from his grasp and fell. Poor Nicole looked on horror as the ring fell to the ground.

Turns out that Brandon had the real engagement ring in his pocket and the fumble was all apart of an elaborate prank. The real proposal took place on solid ground where Brandon got down on one knee to pop the big question, to which Nicole accepted.
