Man stages gunpoint robbery to propose to girlfriend in wild video

In Colombia, a man took an unconventional approach to proposing by orchestrating an intricate armed robbery, resulting in a video that has gone viral on Instagram.

In the dramatic footage captured in Cali last Saturday, a red car stops at an intersection, only to be blocked by a pedestrian and a motorcycle. Two individuals, posing as assailants, approach the vehicle and demand the occupants – a man and a woman – to exit.

Adding to the suspense, two more men on another motorcycle join the scene, making it appear as a full-fledged carjacking. The terrified couple is forcibly removed from the car, with one of the men seemingly wielding a small, concealed handgun, intensifying the tension.

The situation takes an unexpected turn when, amidst the apparent chaos, two of the gang members force the male motorist to kneel in the middle of the street. Surprisingly, the aggressiveness subsides, and the kneeling man reveals a wedding ring, exposing that the entire "robbery" was an elaborate setup for a marriage proposal.

The accomplices transition from intimidation to applause and cheers, proud of successfully executing this audacious wedding deception.

Initially angered by the prank, the woman reacts by playfully smacking her soon-to-be-husband before breaking into tears of joy, embracing the unexpected and memorable proposal."
