Marriage Proposal Takes a Terrifying Turn: Turkish Sky-High Engagement Ends in Plane Crash

Woman Says Yes to Marriage Proposal Just Before Her Plane Crashes in Turkiye

Sometimes, grand gestures can lead to unexpected consequences. What should have been a joyous and unforgettable moment for a Turkish couple ended in chaos, when a dramatic marriage proposal in the sky turned tragic.

According to Turkish media reports, a man devised a high-flying plan to propose to his girlfriend. Wanting to capture the moment for posterity, he arranged for the loved one to be on board an ultralight training aircraft, while he proposed to her mid-flight via walkie-talkie. The romantic scene was even filmed on a cell phone, hoping for a memory they would always cherish.

The woman, taken by surprise, reportedly said yes to the proposal. But celebration turned into alarm when, shortly after the proposal, the ultralight plane crashed into a citrus grove. Both the woman and the pilot suffered serious injuries due to the impact.

Authorities have begun an investigation into the cause of the crash. While the couple’s engagement had a turbulent start, friends and well-wishers hope this unfortunate incident does not set the tone for their life together.

Many are now reflecting on the risks that sometimes come with elaborate proposals. For now, the focus remains on a full and speedy recovery for those involved—and a reminder that sometimes, the simplest gestures hold the greatest meaning.
