Waxman Staff Writer May 23, 2014 2:20 PM UTC A Montana man made an elaborate video to propose to his girlfriend, lip-syncing to “I’m Gonna Be” by The Proclaimers in 26 countries over four years. The couple, Jack Hyer and Rebecca Strellnauer, [started](http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/lifestyle/2014/05/epic-proposal-video-takes-montana-man-26-countries-4-years-to-make/) dating seriously at the University of Montana in Missoula. While the video shows Hyer all over Africa, Asia, and Europe, the actual proposal — shown at the end of this clip — took place among friends and family at a Missoula restaurant. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/110324/watch-guy-proposes-to-girl-with-lip-sync-video-filmed-in-26-countries/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/110324/watch-guy-proposes-to-girl-with-lip-sync-video-filmed-in-26-countries/"},"headline":"WATCH: Guy Proposes to Girl with Lip-Sync Video Filmed in 26 Countries","datePublished":"2014-05-23T14:20:47.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:09:58.812Z","description":"She said yes","url":"https://time.com/110324/watch-guy-proposes-to-girl-with-lip-sync-video-filmed-in-26-countries/","keywords":["Newsfeed","viral"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Olivia B.
