Brain Surgeon Hid An Engagement Ring In The Sand On A Beach And Told Prospective Bride To Find It

A brain surgeon vacationing in Naples, Florida came up with a one-of-a-kind marriage proposal idea: hide his prospective bride-to-be’s engagement ring in the sand; make her dig in the sand for hours to find it before the proposal; and then call in a scruffy old professional dude with a metal detector to find it.

Read more here, along with worse places he could have hid it:

I would have told him to go to hell. Who wants to marry someone with no class!!! He should have hired a plane trailing a "will you marry me" banner like the other idiots who want to really impress that special someone on the beach.

And again, in case you forgot, I am no brain surgeon, but I would have remembered where I buried the freaking ring!

I should think the prospective bride might have told the guy where he could have stuck that ring!!!

Doctor Steve Carr, I won't be seeking out your services in the event of an aneurysm!

Actually, he looks more like a doofus than an ass...but still (video here):
