A now-viral video shows a groom calmly working out in a gym while his bride, fully dressed in her wedding gown, cries and pleads with him to stop. The dramatic moment unfolds just 20 minutes before their scheduled wedding ceremony. Despite her repeated requests, the groom appears unfazed, focused solely on completing his workout routine.
Bride Breaks Down in Gym, Internet Reacts
The visibly upset bride can be heard yelling, “Our wedding is in 20 minutes!” as she struggles to convince him to leave. The groom, however, remains indifferent, lifting weights as if nothing unusual is happening.
Social media users were quick to weigh in. One person wrote, “Marriage is temporary, gains are forever,” while another added, “Time to cancel the wedding.” A concerned user advised, “Don’t get married. Obviously, he doesn’t want to be there. And lady… know your worth.”

Others, however, suspected the video was nothing more than an elaborate skit. “No way this is real. Her shoes. His tie. This has to be a skit,” commented one user.
Turns Out It Was a Skit, With a Twist
Later, YouTuber Cherdleys, who originally posted the video, shared behind-the-scenes clips confirming that the dramatic gym wedding was staged. One snippet shows the couple exchanging vows inside the gym, with a trainer holding a gym ball as a witness. Immediately after the vows, the groom drops to the floor for a fresh set of pushups, then lifts the bride and exits the scene.
More Stunts by the Same YouTuber
Cherdleys is known for crafting awkward and humorous social media scenarios. In another viral video shared in April, he staged a moment where a man slapped a woman who tried to give him her number while he was with his girlfriend. While clearly scripted, that video too left viewers divided.
With their over-the-top acting and absurd plots, Cherdleys’ skits continue to blur the line between reality and satire—leaving the internet guessing every time.
