WATCH: Clumsy tourist breaks toes off of 200-year old Italian sculpture

A clumsy tourist in Italy snapped three toes off a 200-year-old sculpture while taking a picture, and it was caught on camera.

It all happened on July 31st, when the Austrian man jumped up onto the base of the plaster cast model of Paolina Bonaparte to get the perfect shot at the Gipsoteca Museum in Possagno.

The incident was caught on video, which also shows the man posing alongside the statue — the original plaster cast model by famed marble sculptor Antonio Canova — as a woman snaps his photo.
