It happened in the town of Ijsselstein in Holland when a man thought up a thrilling way to propose marriage to his girlfriend. It all went dramatically wrong, even though the woman in question did say yes. The Dutchman’s plan was to lower himself by mobile crane into his beloved’s backyard. But the unsecured crane he used toppled into a neighbour’s house. Following the initial impact, more damage was done when the crane fell again during an attempt to right it. No word on who is paying for the mess. Dutch media report the couple are now celebrating in Paris.
