Italian authorities are searching for a man who jumped off a three-story building into a canal in Venice on Thursday.
Calling the man an"idiot", Venice's Mayor Luigi Brugnaro said in a Twitter post that he would give the man a"certificate of stupidity and a lot of kicks" for the act, which has gone viral on social media.
"We are trying to identify him, to report him, him and his buddy below who made the stupid video for social media," Brugnaro said. "He risked his life in that jump, but he is also a delinquent. They don't understand the danger they create in this city. What if a boat would have been passing below?" "They do these stupid things on social for the likes," the mayor said, adding that"we will use the law to prosecute him."Last year, more than 40 tourists were arrested for swimming in Venice canals and one man was arrested for surfing down the Grand Canal.
