Riky Ash, a professional stuntman from the United Kingdom, took proposals to a whole new level when he did his while he was on fire.
During a decoy photoshoot that he set up to surprise Katrina Dobson, a coronavirus nurse, the stuntman set himself on fire and proposed.
In a video that was shared on YouTube, Dobson could be seen wearing a magenta scrubs before Ash set himself on fire and dropped on his knee to propose.
Ash said:
I couldn’t see anything more impressive than proposing on fire. I sat down with a pen and paper, then I contact relevant people, and put the idea to them.
Ash was doused with an accelerant so a big whoosh of fire could be seen.
The crew reportedly had fire extinguishers in case a malfunction happened.
Not only that, but wet towels were also ready.
The best thing about this is that the wife said yes!
Dobson, who is from Kent, UK, said:
It was a whirlwind romance. Then lockdown happened and we spoke on the phone every day for three weeks.
Dobson was told that they were participating in a photoshoot that was about an NHS nurse that was finding love during this coronavirus pandemic.
Ash has been stunting as a body double for 27 years. He has worked with Richard Burton to Johnny Depp.
Such an amazing and dangerous way to propose!
