Student, dressed as knight, asks girlfriend to prom on horse and falls off spectacularly

Hilarious footage of a man to went to the trouble of dressing up as a knight and riding a horse to ask his girlfriend to the prom, only to fall off spectacularly.

The video, filmed in Atlanta, USA towards the end of March, shows the unfortunate high school student in a full suit of armour tumbling off his horse during his creative 'promposal'.

He later wrote online: "I asked my girlfriend to prom in a full suit of armor with a sword on top of a horse and in the process I fell off the horse epically."
