Marine Sergeant Scott Moore hit the jackpot earlier this week when he scored a date with the super hot Mila Kunis. As you have probably already heard, he asked Mila to escort him to the Marine Corps Ball via YouTube and she eventually said yes. But how did all this get started? Somebody laid out a double dog dare.

Sergeant Moore said, “One of the Marines [in my battalion] bet that I wouldn’t make the video and post it. Of course, a bet between Marines must be honored, so I took the chance. You can’t make shots that you don’t take, so I took the best shot I could.”

Watch the video:

This guy is a hero for serving our country and for having the stones to ask out one of the hottest chicks on the planet.

“We all talk about what we are going to do when we get back, and this was my dream,” Moore said. “I do feel bad for putting her on the spot, but it’s not like I was going to bump into her on the streets of Musa Qal’eh between now and the ball.”

Sergeant Moore also gave props to the other guy in the mix … Justin Timberlake. Timberlake was the biggest cheerleader for making this date happen. Moore joked, “JT and I had this all planned from the start. He’s been a great wingman. It’s nice to know he can get over the jealousy to help a brother out. Just kidding. Justin Timberlake’s encouragement definitely helped, I owe him one.”
