An unusual marriage proposal was made by American Stuart Shippie to his girlfriend Marie – the guy launched a ring into near-space at a height of 27 kilometers using a meteorological balloon, and then got down on one knee right in the place where they found jewelry that had fallen from the sky.
Naturally, Stewart did not send a real ring in flight – a replacement ring was in the air, but on the ground, he made an offer with a real ring.
