“Getting engaged can be overwhelming for both the person popping the question and the one getting the ring, which is why many couples ask someone to document the proposal.
For one New Mexico man, that someone was an adorable grandfather he met on a train. And one thing is for sure… the moment was memorable.
The grandfather`s name is John Hart, and he accidentally recorded the whole thing in selfie mode.
That means he only captured his own thrilled reaction to the picturesque proposal.”
