The family of a Louisiana man who died after popping the question while snorkeling doesn’t believe the man drowned.

Steven Weber Jr.’s relatives said he was a “strong” swimmer who had been snorkeling multiple times before he died Thursday proposing while on vacation in Tanzania.

Though a cause of death hasn’t been provided, his sister Mandy Hoffman said her family doesn’t believe he drowned during the proposal.

“This is all we keep talking about,” Hoffman said. “Something other happened besides him running out of breath.”

Weber’s girlfriend, Kenesha Antoine, posted a video of him swimming in front of the windows of their underwater hotel room while holding a handwritten proposal note.

“I can’t hold my breath long enough to tell you everything I love about you,” the note said.

He flipped over the other side of the note which read, “Will you please be my wife?” before swimming out of the view.

Antoine said that Weber never surfaced to hear her answer to him popping the question.

“You never emerged from those depths, so you never got to hear my answer, “Yes! Yes! A million times, yes, I will marry you!!” she wrote on Facebook.

Weber’s family said that an autopsy has been completed but authorities didn’t immediately reveal a cause of death.
