Man spotted taking selfies with dinosaurs after breaking into museum

A man has been caught by security cameras wandering through Sydney's Australian Museum in the middle of the night.

Like a scene from Night at the Museum, the vision shows the man exploring the museum just after 1.00am taking selfies with the dinosaurs.

The footage then shows the man leaving in a worker's cowboy hat.

Police have released the security vision today and are hoping to speak with the man about the break-in incident.
