A Swiss mother almost had a heart attack after her unruly toddler knocked over an art piece worth thousands of pounds at a craft fair in Switzerland.

The incident happened at the Art Basel event last week.

The mother stopped by to admire the piece, called ‘Fly’, but her kid had other ideas. He interfered with the expensive artwork and managed to topple it over, causing the wings to fall off.

Representatives from the fair examined Fly and determined that the wings could be clipped on again, so both the mother and the toddler had a lucky escape.
