最牛求婚:发射婚戒至太空边缘
Man asks his girlfriend to marry him by launching a ring into the edge of SPACE
It's said that love has no limits, but how far can a person really go to express their feelings?
据说爱情无界限,但一个人为了表达自己的感情能做到什么程度呢?
Apparently, all the way to the stratosphere.
人们似乎最高也就飞上平流层求婚.
When the time came for Shawn Wright of Calgary, Alberta to solidify his marriage proposal to his fiancée, doing it on Earth simply wasn't enough.
不过,亚伯达省卡尔加里市的肖恩·赖特要向他未婚妻求婚时,觉得仅仅在地球上求婚不足以表达出他对未婚妻的爱.
So, he strapped the engagement ring to a weather balloon and launched it 30 kilometres into the sky.
于是,他把婚戒绑在一个气象探测气球上,并使气球升到3万米高空处.
Wright first proposed to his fiancée, Maylynn Stephenson, last year during a trip to Barcelona according to The Huffington Post Alberta.
据亚伯达赫芬顿邮报报道,去年在巴塞罗那旅行时,赖特第一次向他的未婚妻梅莲·斯蒂芬森求婚.
The two have been together for six years, and have known each other for 20.
他们已经在一起六年了,而且彼此认识20年了.
While the beachside proposal, which followed a day of skydiving, was 'incredible,' Wright did not yet have a ring, and had to use a stand-by.
玩了一天的跳伞运动后在海滩求婚,这令人"难以置信",然而那时赖特还没准备戒指,所以只好用其他东西代替.
Upon returning home, the husband-to-be began saving money for a ring, and planning an unforgettable way to present it.
回到家后,这位准丈夫就开始省钱买戒指,并且准备以一种令人难忘的方式送给其未婚妻.
'As soon as I started saving up for the real ring, I started thinking, 'What could I do?' Wright told The Huffington Post Alberta.
