Awkward moment romantic proposal goes wrong as cyclist bumps into photographer

A video of a man’s proposal being interrupted by a cycling collision has gone viral.

Chris Vigo was set to pop the question to his fiancée Angelica Rivera, 22, having planned out the romantic event on the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City.

But things took a bad turn when the photographer was struck down by a cyclist during the proposal.

Photographer Joshua Rosario, 22, was given a cue by Chris when he was going to get down on one knee and the heartwarming moment seemed to be going to plan.

Just as Chris was building things up for his soon-to-be future bride, the photographer stepped into the bike lane, directly in the path of a cyclist gliding downhill.

The moment was caught on camera and has garnered almost two million views so far.

Chris, who jokes on camera that he’ll edit the video, said: ‘Me and Angelica had been together for four months.

‘I chose to get engaged there cause we had a special moment there before and I wanted to create a better one for the both of us.

‘I’d planned it for a month prior before it happened. My reaction was so shocked I couldn’t even believe it.

‘At that moment I didn’t know what to do but to make sure that my girlfriend said “yes”.

Joshua, who is also Chris’s close friend said: ‘It was Chris’s idea to go to the Brooklyn Bridge.

‘He told me he had a vision and wanted me to record and take pictures of the special moment.

‘I hadn’t even been to Brooklyn Bridge before.

‘When the cyclist collided, I was in literal shock that that just happened to me. I felt so bad and kind of upset that I ruined their moment trying to capture the perfect moment.’

The couple weren’t mad they missed out on pictures of the special moment and made sure Joshua was okay.

Instagram users were particularly amused by the footage and some couldn’t help but joke about the situation.

Sorry but we have to laugh too.
