It was a classic New York City offering, right down to the last detail.
TO New funny video posted on TikTok This week, user @papermiishe showed off a dreamy engagement in Manhattan in front of a Christmas tree, but what should have been a nice moment was momentarily interrupted by a rat running by.
The proposal appeared to take place under the huge, magnificently lit Christmas tree at 1221 Avenue of the Americas.
Viewers can see the sweet couple posing for a photo under the tree, but as the man reaches into his pocket to grab the ring, a large rat runs out from the bottom left side of the tree.
In true New York style, he begins running in circles near the couple, before appearing to disappear completely into the night.
After the rat disappeared, the man finally got down on one knee and romantically gifted a ring to his future wife, without any interference from the New York City rodent.
However, all the humor of the special moment was not lost.
In the comments section of the video, many TikTok users seemed delighted by the incident, with some even joking that the rat was a “paid actor.”
A fun new video posted to TikTok this week by user @papermiishe showed a dreamy engagement in New York City in front of a Christmas tree, but what should have been a nice moment was momentarily interrupted by a passing rat in a hurry.
“The rat is saying, ‘Oh my God, it’s happening, it’s happening,'” someone wrote.
Another joked: “Concrete jungles where dreams are made.”
“Lmao the rat wants to enter the scene,” one user commented.
Someone else seconded: ‘THE RAT IS PART OF THE NEW YORK EXPERIENCE.’
Others, however, praised the future husband for his bravery throughout, as many said they would have abandoned the ring at the sight of the rat.
“Cheers to continue, I would have taken that rat as a sign,” one TikTok user admitted.
Another person observed: ‘You handled it with grace. I would have climbed the tree.
“If that were me, the rat would have ruined the whole proposal because he would have run my ass down the block,” another chimed in.
Once the rat was gone, the man was able to peacefully propose to the woman, with no rodents in sight.
In the comments section of the video, many TikTok users seemed delighted with the moment, with some even joking that the rat was a “paid actor.”
However, having a rat overlook a proposal is not the worst thing that could have gone wrong.
In 2023, a total ‘Karen’ ruined a beachside proposal with some crazy antics.
Zenicca Llanza, 24, from the Philippines, shared a video of her boyfriend kneeling on the beach.
While her future husband had arranged everything for the perfect moment, including a beautiful cake that said, “Will you marry me?”, another beachgoer decided to interfere and rearrange the setup, before interrupting the moment.
While Zenicca was listening to his speech, the anonymous woman enters the scene.
He then moves the sign before walking towards the couple to see the ring, before Zenicca had a chance to wear it.
