This is the thrilling moment a man took the plunge and proposed to his girlfriend while they skydived from 13,000 feet.

Jason Pack had planned ahead to create the ultimate romantic scene to top his girlfriend Katie Line’s first-ever parachute jump.

The adrenaline-pumping proposal was caught on film as Pack and Line took part in a charity skydive at Sibson Aerodrome near Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, England, on September 5.

Telecommunications worker Pack, 37, said: “I’d arranged with the instructors to land before Katie so I’d have time to prepare the proposal sign. They went to the extreme of giving me a smaller parachute, spiraling more in the air to get down to the ground quicker and free-falling for longer.”

“I then had the family on the ground with some large painted signs and then I just hoped for the best that Katie could read it from the air.”
