WATCH: Man left devastated after ‘proposal’ goes wrong on live TV, but there’s a twist

As the presenters Gary O‘Brien and Lisa O’Neill discussed the results in the foreground, the man is seen storming off leaving the man who popped the question, bewildered. As the journalists tried to continue with their coverage, the man whose ‘proposal’ was refused stood there looking into the camera pretending to be gobsmacked, until the man who walked away returned with a big group of friends.

O‘Brien then refers to “marriage” taking place behind then as the group of men was jumping up and down in celebration — perhaps successfully pulling off a stunt on television.

Watch the moment here:

The clip went viral after it was shared by a popular racing expert Kevin Blake who using puns wrote: “It was always going to be a big gamble to pop the question on a public stage like that, but in fairness to the lad, he bounced back quickly!”

“Give these two an Oscar,” remarked one, while another hailed them for their creativity. “Rejection is hard, but you’ll bounce back quick,” quipped another.
