Raccoon photobombs proposal video in adorable engagement mishap

A raccoon got in the way of one proposal in a hilarious way. Here’s what happened.

When Mary Dawson was assigned to film her best friend’s proposal, a somewhat understandable yet funny mishap occurred.

Though she anticipated filming the entire first moment of being fiancés, Dawson became distracted by a nearby raccoon.

Comical, yes, but the raccoon unfortunately stole the spotlight by mistake, causing Dawson to miss the best part of the engagement.

Viewers say they wouldn’t forgive friend for filming raccoon 

Having your proposal filmed is a memory that will last a lifetime. But what happens when a cute raccoon photobombs the video?

Dawson, a friend of the girl getting proposed to, fell victim to an overload of adorable when a raccoon crept up on her.

While the proposal had just started, Dawson was so taken by the raccoon that she ended up filming the raccoon instead of her friend’s new fiancée getting down on one knee.

In her now-viral TikTok video, Dawson included a text overlap about the mishap, “POV: I shouldn’t have been trusted to film my friend’s proposal.”

Those who have viewed the video commented how funny it was to have missed the best part of the proposal – the kneeling.

Other viewers debated if they’d be mad, with some saying they wouldn’t forgive Dawson and others who fully understood the cute mistake.

Though most of the proposal wasn’t caught on camera like anticipated, Dawson’s friend did say ‘yes.’ At least her friend now knows who she shouldn’t hire as her wedding photographer.
