A Nottingham man was caught up in a riot that broke out at one of the Seven Wonders of the World. E-Commerce Analyst, Jamie Headington, 31, captured the chaos at Machu Picchu, Peru, during his trip and felt he was left in the lurch at the gates of the site.
Police and local authorities had to close off the wonder to the hundreds of waiting tourists. Jamie said that he had his passport confiscated by authorities and would only get it back once he paid up for another ticket, despite already paying through a tour agency.
Jamie narrowly avoided the chaos and managed to get his money's worth, after he managed to get through with an invalid ticket in a mad rush. Footage shows the large crowds gathering at the gates of the sight with police officers having to barricade gates as angry tourists tried to push through.
