2. A tourist smashed a 126-year-old statue in Portugal -just to take a selfie.

Serious facepalm right now. The statue of Dom Sebastiao, a 16th-century king of Portugal, will never look the same.

3. Tourists were arrested after stripping naked and posing for photos at Peru’s ancient site of Machu Picchu.

Apparently surveillance in the area has had to be amped up due to nude photos and streaking becoming increasingly common along the Inca trail.

4. Frolicking in and ancient fountain.

Just last week three women outraged locals in Rome after taking a dip in a 400-year-old fountain to escape the summer heat.

Last July, two Aussie tourists were arrested after being caught allegedly having sex on a bench in Florence.

6. Going nude on a mountain top – again

A British backpacker was jailed for stripping down atop Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia last year. The entire mountain was closed for three weeks as a result of the prank!
