TikToker @smclyne's proposal was all wet after he fumbled the ring box.

Commitment is one thing to look forward to in a marriage.

A laughworthy video posted to Tik Tok shows one future husband pretty committed to not letting the ocean ruin his proposal.


The clip uploaded by user Scott Clyne—@smclyne on TikTok—showcases a proposal gone wrong where Scott fumbles his engagement ring off the bow of a boat yet ends up making a wild recovery by diving headfirst into the ocean.

Like any future groom should, Scott tried his best to pull out all the stops while asking long time girlfriend Suzie Tucker to be his wife.

The hopeful groom-to-be chartered a yacht on the Gulf of Mexico and scattered rose petals to set the mood. While enjoying a sunset, everything went smoothly right up until Scott reached into his pocket to pull out the engagement ring.

He said:

"I had the ring in my back pocket and went to reach for it."
"The corner of the ring box got caught on the top of my pocket and slipped out of my hands."

Immediately after the ring was on the move, Scott was too.

He reflexively backflipped into the gulf resulting in a timely save before the ring box could disappear into the depths or float away.

"Everything was an absolute blur from that point on."
"All I remember thinking was this can't be happening and next thing I knew I was in the water."

Scott's unorthodox proposal and acrobatic save left viewers in awe.

In the end, Scott got the memorable proposal he was gunning for and Suzie ended up saying "yes".

The two now look forward to their upcoming wedding where Scott will hopefully be on dry land.

Say what you may about Ellen DeGeneres, but we can all agree that she's always tried to find the funny side in a situation, even if it's something that should be as mundane as mowing the lawn.

DeGeneres left the talk show scene in 2022 after allegations ran rampant about her running a toxic workplace, so when President Donald Trump was elected for a second term, it seemed the perfect time for the entertainer and her wife, Portia de Rossi, to look for greener pastures, namely in the U.K.
