This is the moment a hot air balloon loaded with tourists hit a historic Italian museum and knocked an ornamental column off the roof.
Footage filmed near the Voltiano Temple in Como on Monday morning showed the balloon hit the building shortly after take-off, sending the stone section of cornice crashing to the ground,
Fortunately the 94-year-old landmark was closed and no one was injured.
In the clip the hot air balloon lifts off and immediately heads sideways into some trees.
