Proposals are supposed to be romantic and memorable. However, this woman's terrifying experience is especially one to remember forever.
A man's romantic clifftop proposal went horribly wrong when his partner fell from the edge just moments after saying yes.
According to reports, the 32-year-old woman thankfully survived the fall from the 650-foot-tall cliff in Carinthia, Austria, after snow broke her fall.
Her fiance had leaped after her and while hanging on for his own life, he soared nearly 50 feet through the air, reported the Bild.
A police officer who attended to them said, "The two were extremely lucky! He flew 15 meters through the air. The woman fell 200 meters over rocky terrain. Had it not been for snow, it would have turned out very differently."
The couple had trekked all the way to the top of the mountain where the man had eventually popped the question.
However, things went sour when the woman slipped in the snow and fell over the edge.
Her fiance leapt out and tried to grab her but unfortunately, lost his own balance and ended up falling over the edge with her.
A passerby spotted the woman and raised the alarm. She had landed on a frozen lake. A helicopter was sent to the cliff edge where the man was holding on and was safely rescued.
The pair was taken to the hospital where the man was diagnosed with a vertebrate fracture.
Both are in recovery now. May they have a blessed married life, free of cliffs and falls.
