Man pulls off ‘most creative proposal ever’ that has people crying while watching

The 'Sleeping Beauty Proposal' went viral for all the right reasons.

A man has genuinely pulled off the ‘most creative proposal ever’, leaving viewers in an absolute wreck.

Filmmaker Lee Loechler (YouTube - @YoursTrueLeee; Instagram - @yours_true_lee) from Massachusetts, US, spent six months on perfecting his magical dream proposal and it paid off in a big, big way, going viral all around the world.

Watch below:

On December 30, 2019, Lee seriously raised the proposal-bar when he took his girlfriend of three years, Sthuthi David, to watch a movie at their local cinema.

The pair sat in the front row, whilst family and friends were hidden in the dark in the rows above.

Sthuthi and her husband-to-be watched 1959 Disney classic Sleeping Beauty and the movie is exactly how you would remember it - apart from the last scene.

As the final scene starts to play, all of a sudden the characters change, now resembling Lee and Sthuthi.

It took a few seconds for the girlfriend to realise what Lee had done, completely re-editing the last scene of the film to include cartoon versions of themselves.

Just as the cartoon version of Lee got down on one knee, so did the real-Lee.

It took her a moment to realise what was going on.

"It’s not every day you get to propose to your childhood sweetheart, so I want to take my time. Savour this moment," he said.

"I love you with all of my heart. Including its ventricles, atriums, valves."

Trust me - there wouldn't have been a dry eye in the house.

"Sthuthi David, M.D, will you live happily ever after with me?" Lee asks.

After popping the all-important question, Sthuthi replies: "Yes."

Later taking to YouTube in a video posted on 9 January, 2020, the clip has racked up nearly eight million views, at the time of writing.

"It's not every day you get to propose to your High School sweetheart," Lee wrote in the caption.

"For the past six months, I've been working with an illustrator to animate my girlfriend and myself into her favorite movie, Sleeping Beauty.

"On 12/30/19 I popped the question in a theater filled with our friends and family."

Incredible.

Speaking today as the video went viral once again, Lee clarified on Instagram that as he 'cannot draw for [poo emoji]' the 'brilliant and mega-talented artist' Kayla Coombs (@kaylacoombs) was the one who 'took a crazy idea and brought it to life'.

Commenting on the incredible clip, one viewer wrote: "Bro this is legit the most creative proposal ever."

Another added: "This is fine, I’m just sobbing uncontrollably, don’t mind me," as others were simply amazed by the thought-process that went into it.

A third said: "Damn, you guys even animated an alternate ending in case she said no? The level of work and commitment here is just unprecedented. Well done and congrats!"

"The way he mentioned that she's a cardiologist and an MD shows how much he loves her and how much he is proud of her achievements," someone else wrote.

Congratulations to the happy couple.
