  1. Freak…🤬What gives Peoples the Right to Even sit on Precious Artifacts in a Museum 🤬🤬Boo.

    1. Nolan Beatrolyn it’s piece of someone’s culture/ History that’s being disrespected only a fool can’t se that

  2. Can’t read the last of the report due to pop ups. For all we know there ARE signs saying do not touch that were ignored absolutely there should be consequences even shops have notices saying you break it you bought it. He will need to pay for the restoration.

    1. actually no, the museum did not install beepers near the statue therefore they’re partially liable and this can be used to his defence.

      anyhow, insurance will pay for it. the toes have been broken, nothing can unbreak it, move on and learn.

    2. If you click a random part of the screen (so the pause button comes up) it makes the pop ups translucent, so you can read what’s behind. I figured this out just yesterday, lol.

  3. That sucks. Seems staged and unreal, though. My EYES saw the lady with the camera walk off as soon as she took the photo, like she didn’t know the poser, so what’s up with that?

  4. I hope they get a foothold of this perpetrator. “JERK IT OFF” song… check it out. TRUMP 2020!

  5. No biggy, easily repaired. The statue depicts the little sister of napoleon bonaparte, the biggest art looter in italian history. Italians can thank Austrians that they got pieces like the Horses of Saint Mark in Venice back from bonaparte art robbers.
