A man's dream moment turned into a heart-stopping nightmare when his wedding ring slipped from his grasp mid-proposal on a skybridge at Boyne Mountain Resort in Michigan. The intimate proposal was intended to be the start of Trevor Van Camp's new life with girlfriend, but fate had other plans.
The proposal went terribly wrong as Trevor lost control of the ring, and it plummeted nearly 120 feet into the snow below. Luckily for the couple, a quick-thinking resort employee, who happened to be present at the scene, sprang into action. The worker carefully picked up the fallen ring and made sure it was safe before returning it to its relieved owner.
Despite the unexpected turn of events, Trevor's girlfriend seemed unfazed by the ordeal, choosing instead to focus on the sentimental value behind the proposal. 'You're going to love me for who I am,' he had said as he got down on one knee, holding up the ring. It appears this is a couple that will continue to build their life together.
Van Camp's harrowing experience has sparked both laughter and sympathy from those who witnessed it live or saw it captured on camera.

. I mean, you're already nervous proposing, but losing the ring mid-speech? That's just a whole new level of anxiety 
. But what I love about this story is that Trevor's girlfriend was so understanding and sweet about it - she wasn't mad or upset at all 
. It's like, even though things didn't go as planned, the love and commitment are still there 
. And kudos to that resort employee who saved the ring! They're literally a hero 
. I'm glad Trevor and his girlfriend are still going strong after this crazy ordeal 
.
what if the ring would've gone thru the glass tho? at least it was lucky 4 the resort employee 
they literally saved the day! & btw, i feel 4 Trevor's girlfriend 2 be all calm about it 
At least the ring was saved, right? 
120 feet is crazy low, I'm surprised the guy didn't break his neck. Guess you could say the girl's heart wasn't shaken (love that pun). 
But seriously, that resort employee was a lifesaver (or should I say, ring-saver?) lol. Glad everything turned out okay for Trevor and his girlfriend. It's actually kind of cool that she wasn't bothered by the mishap - shows she really loves him for who he is, like he said 
... I mean, proposing in a crazy way like skybridge and stuff is pretty bold, but what if something goes wrong? Like, literally goes wrong 
. And I gotta say, his girlfriend seems super chill about it all 
- it's moments like these that remind us to appreciate the beauty in unexpected surprises 
The fact that the employee just happened to be there and saved the ring from potentially being lost forever... sounds fishy. What were the chances? 
And what about Trevor's reaction? Was he really just fine with it all going wrong? 
what if the ring got lost forever? 
!
. The thing is, though, what does this say about our priorities as a society? Do we value romance over safety? That's the real question, right?
. And to make matters even crazier, his girlfriend didn't freak out at all - she's like, "Ring and everything, I'm good!" 
. The resort should totally give them a free stay or something for the drama they brought with them 
.
. 120 feet is quite a fall 
. i'm so happy for trevor and his girlfriend though - it's clear they're meant to be, ring or no ring 
.
