Storm Chaser Proposes to His Girlfriend in Front of Tornado

We have been “blown away” by creative marriage proposals in the past, but this one wins the prize.

29-year-old Alex Bartholomew had purchased an engagement ring for his girlfriend Britney Fox Clayton in March, but to ‘pop the question’ he waited until the conditions were just right… specifically, tornado-making conditions.

Alex, who is a dedicated Texas storm chaser, wanted to start the next chapter of his life in front of his two favorite things: tornadoes and Britney.

So, on Wednesday, with a storm brewing in the background, Alex finally got down on one knee – and she said yes!

“I can’t quite describe the feeling that has overcome me,” said Alex on Facebook. “Elated, ecstatic, overjoyed, just plain damn happy. I seriously couldn’t ask for a better life and I can’t wait to spend it with her by my side.”
