Student Snaps 19th Century Statue While Snapping a Selfie



Most museums have strict rules regarding taking photos and touching the art - so no one would assume you shouldn't climb onto a sculpture and snap a selfie.

According to 'TIME,' that's exactly what one student did, and the unnamed male broke the leg off of a 19th century Greco Roman statue in an Italian museum.

It's unclear if the student was able to capture the image before destroying the piece.
