Crowds gathered outside Rome's ancient Colosseum on Monday (February 27) for a massive snowball fight after Italy's capital saw the heaviest snowfall in six years.
A video shot by a film student, Alessio Hong, shows the happy side of the snow storm with children and adults smiling as they play in the snow.
Hong and his camera took a few hits from stray snowballs during the heated battle, but ultimately both survived unscathed, the film student told Reuters.
Elsewhere in Rome on Monday (February 26), the rare snow storm disrupted transport, shut down schools and prompted authorities to call in the army to help clear the streets.
