Pose With the Leaning Tower of Pisa Italy
📍 Pisa, Italy🔄 Repeatable👤 All ages

Strike the classic "holding up the tower" pose at this famous architectural accident that's been defying gravity for 800 years. The trick is positioning yourself at the right angle—most people stand too close or too far for the optical illusion to work. Climb the 294 steps inside for city views if you don't mind the wonky sensation of walking up a structure that tilts 4 degrees off vertical.

“And of course – OF COURSE – I posed with the same idiotic pose as everyone who has ever visited Pisa has done, that of pushing the tower from afar. It cracked me up to see the line of tourists striking this exact pose, or some variation of it. Chris and I came up with a few of our own. All priceless, naturally.”
