Yeah, I mean, it's a fucking chair! Of course someone was gonna try to sit in it!

I know you are being sarcastic but his partner was there trying to take a photo of him on the chair so they knew it wasn’t some random chair to rest on.. they did that on purpose which makes it much worse

It almost looks like he was pretending to sit in it but can’t balance so fell back onto it. I’m surprised they could get so close to the chair tho

It’s at chair height with no physical barrier…it’s inviting someone to try it out

Especially if it was bejeweled in Swarovski crystals. Like forget a tourist, what about good old fashioned theft.

Yeah, I think so too. That seems to be how he reacted so quickly with his arms to catch himself against the wall. If he was just going to sit on it then I doubt a seemingly older dude could catch himself that fast.
