Teen Writes ‘Promposal’ in Sand, Only to Race Against the Clock as the Tide Rises

By Mandy Kennedy

Sure, this whole "promposal" thing might be a bit overdone, but you have to hand it to the kids who really step up their game to create quite an experience for their crushes. Of course, even with hard work and creativity, things don't always go smoothly...as you'll see.

This guy's heart was in the right place for his promposal.

But what he didn’t think about was the constraint that a rising tide could play on his timetable. You’ll see why that’s important later on!

(Adding to the stakes is a camera crew secretly filming the event, though he’s unaware.)

Where is she?

He’s all dressed up and clearly put work into this, but if she’s not prompt (and why isn’t she?), he’s going to be left with a washed-out request.

He's got help.

But all the help in the world isn’t going to keep the tide at bay if his date-to-be doesn’t show up soon.

He's got a support system in these passersby who are documenting the whole thing.

But moral support won’t pull off this promposal. He needs this girl to show up, and quickly. WHERE IS SHE?

Too late. He (and the message) are washed away.

(Cue sad music)

Is this the end for our creative and diligent promposer?
