The statue, outside the Brussels stock exchange, had just been restored at great cost.

    The tourist looks like they’re a teenager, to me, like maybe 16 or so? Is it their parent holding the camera or what?

      He was arrested, and the company the statue belongs to is calling for him to pay the repair costs, not their parents, so maybe early 20s?

        I’m getting old! I watch that video and think, “who let that kid play around on that statue?” and apparently he’s old enough to be criminally responsible haha.

        Legally he’s old enough at 16 to be responsible, so they can’t go after the parents
