The jubilant moment a relieved groom found his wedding ring after he lost it in a river has been captured on camera.
Richard Fords cherished platinum band slipped off his finger while he was paddleboarding with a group of friends along the River Tame, in Tamworth, Staffordshire, on July 14.
The 30-year-old, from Tamworth, who got married last August to primary school teacher Jen, also 30, only discovered the ring was missing when he had travelled half-a-mile down the river.
Richard and his friends then spent 24 hours scouring the bottom of the river bed to try and find it. Richard, a joiner, explained said: We were on the river when I realised it was missing. I was devastated - Im not into jewellery, but it is so special to me, it felt like I had lost part of my soul.
That afternoon three of us went out with snorkels and searched for hours and hours, but we couldnt find it. Someone had been taking photos and by checking them all, managed to pinpoint the area where I lost the ring, as in one shot I was wearing it and the next I wasnt.
So on the Monday night a group volunteered to help me look again. I was desperate to find it. I hollowed out a bucket and put perspex in the bottom of it and I lay face-first on my paddleboard with a T-shirt around my head and my head in the bucket looking into the water.
During the search, his friend Neil Myers, 30, found the ring under a rock and decided to film Richards reaction to his discovery.
The footage - which has gone viral on YouTube with thousands of hits - shows Richard frantically searching for the ring by lying face-down on his paddleboard and using a hollowed out bucket to scour the riverbed.
Neil can be heard saying: Rich, what is it youre doing Get your head out of the bucket. He than adds: What is it youre looking for Does it look like that as he then produces the ring to a stunned Richard.
The relieved husband leaps up from his paddleboard and throws his arms in the air shouting yes in celebration as if he has just won a gold medal at the Olympics.
The 1.37 minute clip then shows Richard putting the ring back on his finger before hugging his friends and shaking their hands saying: Thank you, Im indebted to you forever. Richard said of the find and his subsequent online fame: I couldnt believe it, I really didnt think Id see it again, it was a million to one chance.

Fred Stobaugh, 96, remembered laying eyes on the prettiest girl he ever saw: It was 1938, and she was a car hop named Lorraine at an AW Rootbeer stand in East Peoria, lll.
Two years later, she was his wife. They remained together until Lorraines death this year.She gave me 75 years of her life, Stobaugh said in an online documentary.
Soon after Lorraine died, Green Shoe Studio, an Illinois-based music studio, held an online contest for singer-songwriters. Studio employees were sorting through uploaded videos when they received a manila envelope.Inside were heartfelt lyrics that Stobaugh wrote about the love of his life, titled Sweet Lorraine.
Oh sweet Lorraine, I wish we could do all the good times over again, the song starts. Oh sweet Lorraine, life only goes around once, but never again. The memories always linger on. Oh sweet Lorraine, I dont want to move on. ... thats why I wrote this song.
The studio said the lyrics didnt meet the submission criteria for the singer-songwriter contest. But it did him one better - the studio had professional musicians work with Stobaugh to transform the lyrics into a song.The studio created a documentary video telling Stobaughs story and posted it online.
The video showed the moment Stobaugh first listened to the finished song. When the song was over, Stobaugh visibly trembled, held his hand over his mouth and stared off into the distance.Wonderful, he said.
The song has since gone on to top the iTunes downloads in the Singer/Songwriter category, according to Green Shoe Studio.
It was a wonderful 75 years, I often think theyre kind of unreal - dreaming, or something. But it was real. Thats all I can say. It was real.I really, really miss her, he said.
