PORTLAND, OR (RNN) - Because a straightforward, "down on one knee" proposal doesn't give a girl enough of a story, an Oregon actor gave his new fiancée a viral "Will you marry me?" for the internet ages.
It started simply enough as a request for Amy Frankel to listen to a song in the back of an open Honda CRV.
As the car began to slowly take off, Bruno Mars' "Marry Me" blasted through the headphones she wore.
What unfolded as the music played was an elaborate flash mob/live action lip-dub staged by boyfriend Isaac Lamb. More than 60 of Lamb's friends and family took to the street to dance the choreographed proposal in real time.
At the end of the four-plus minute song, Lamb parted the crowd, walked up to Frankel and got down on one knee.
"You have already given me a lifetime of happiness. Will you let me spend the rest of my life trying to give you the same?" he asked.
What else could you expect from someone who makes his living in the dramatic arts?
"When I decided to ask Amy to marry me, I wanted something she wouldn't forget," Lamb told The Oregonian newspaper.
Guys, take note. She said yes.
Lamb said he didn't have any doubts.
"This whole production was a good insurance policy," he said.
The video has been viewed (and probably cried over, applauded and cheered) by more than 4.3 million people on YouTube in the three days it's been posted.
Though, apparently at least a few guys are feeling the pressure.
"If anyone shows this to my girlfriend, I will kill you," one YouTube commenter posted.
Now, the question remains - with such an elaborate proposal, what will the wedding be like?
"How am I going to top that?" Frankel asked.
