Redditor Homerliwag is a brave man. It’s one thing to face snakes, bugs, spiked pits, rats, and Nazis. It’s quite another to offer your girlfriend a ring box with nothing but a tiny bag of sand inside, and tell her Indiana Jones must have gotten there first. Bold moves.

Now before you get your torches out, it was because he couldn’t find the right ring in time, and for his Indiana Jones fanlady we’re assuming the wait was so, so worth it. Read the whole story behind the jump.
