Young Russian Alexey Bykov, 30, hired a director, stuntmen, make up artists and a scriptwriter to help him fake his own death in a car accident. Why? Alexey wanted to propose to his girlfriend, but beforehand, he wanted to know for sure that she truly loved him. He asked his girlfriend, Irena, to meet him at a designated spot, but when she arrived she saw Bykov on the ground, covered in blood and seemingly killed in a car crash. "I wanted to know she loved me to death!" Later said Alexey. |

Irena immediately burst into tears when she saw him lying "dead," as an actor-paramedic told her, among the mangled cars. But Bykov jumped back to life before her eyes and proposed to her on the spot. |

"I was so cross I almost killed him again, but for real this time," she said. But luckily for Mr. bykov, she forgave him, laughed and said yes. The couple were married last week. As for us, all we can say is: We hope that is the last time he will 'test' her love! |
