Video: Firefighter proposes after ‘rescuing’ girlfriend

His drill instructor asked her to volunteer to be “rescued” in a demonstration of how firefighters save people in trapped buildings

A New York firefighter’s girlfriend had no idea what was in store for her on Saturday when she participated in a mock rescue.

Huffington Post reported that bride-to-be Giuliana went to FDNY’s Family Day to watch her boyfriend, Marc, demonstrate what he learned in his firefighter training program.

His drill instructor asked her to volunteer to be “rescued” in a demonstration of how firefighters save people in trapped buildings, according to the report.

Marc was lowered down the side of the building, where she sat in a third-floor window to “rescue her,” when he said into a microphone, “I’ve been with you for a while and I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while, and I was just wondering if you’d marry me.”

After she said “yes,” the firefighter lowered both of them to the ground to celebrate.
