NYP:
A newly engaged woman slipped and plunged to her death off a cliff in Turkey — just moments after her husband-to-be popped the question.
Yesim Demir and her new fiancé, Nizamettin Gursu, were about to celebrate the momentous occasion with a sunset picnic when the 39-year-old plummeted over 100 feet off the steep cliff in Canakkale, a city in northwestern Turkey, on July 6.
The excited groom-to-be had just proposed and had returned to their car to retrieve the celebratory food and drinks when he heard a blood-curdling scream, Newsflash reported. more
Lets not jump to conclusions.
The dangerous Backflip of Joy…
I wonder if any couple has ever proposed at Palouse Falls in SE Washington state? That’s a mighty long drop there to the bottom along those steep cliffs. What a lousy way for that Turkish couple to end the marriage before it even gets started.
…that’s not what “Taking The Plunge” means…
…we only have HIS word for it about what happened, just sayin’…
Seems like I’ve seen something similar happen and it was no accident.
Well, he’s a male Turk, so I’m not saying I don’t believe his version, but I don’t.
He totally killed her.
How do you say “another stupid selfie death” in Turkish?
I am also going to leave this one alone.
Probably just a horrible tragedy.
On the other hand, being that it was immediately following the proposal it could be used as the perfect alibi.
On the third hand, if they were already married it could be called a Turkish divorce.
Typical ‘he said, she couldn’t say’ situation…
I suppose what happens to the guy depends on whether or not they torture him. It is Turkey after all.
Uncle Al,

“Selfie” doesn’t translate or is universal.
Thankfully here I don’t have to pronounce that crap. 😀
She coulda just said no, doncha think?
@Chumlee – she may have said no…
@fullmetal256 — He may have said no…with a shove.
Staggering…
ChumLee: F I were a betting man….
She really fell for him.
I was over the moon, she was over the cliff….

Perhaps he was tipped off that she wanted to move into a three million dollar house down the street..
Look out for the cllllliiiiiiiiiifffffff…. splat.
Did he get some life insurance on her recently? Something doesn’t make sense here, he goes to the car. She gets closer to the cliff.
She was head over heels in love with the guy!
@Geoff
If it had happened at Palouse Falls the incident would have been even lousier, right?
She fell for him.
