Man Ends up Trapped For Hours In Failed Effort to Impress a Date

Not content with simply picking up a bouquet of roses and calling it a night, a lovestruck man from Pittsburgh went to extreme lengths to impress a woman he had just met: he took her to a nearby rooftop so she could watch him jump from one roof to another.

Pittsburgh Police told CBS that the man missed his mark and was then stuck between two buildings, one of them a Qdoba, for around four hours.
