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

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.
