Bird slams into Fabio's face

WILLIAMSBURG, Virginia (CNN) -- It was a shocking scene as hunky model Fabio stepped off the inaugural run of a roller coaster Tuesday, his nose splattered with blood. But the man seen on dozens of romance book covers proved to be OK after an unfortunate bird apparently collided with Fabio's face sometime during the ride.

Fabio, 38, was at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg to promote the park's newest thrill ride, "Apollo's Chariot," when the bizarre collision took place.

Before the ride began, the square-jawed hunk was living up to the mythical god's standard for manly youth and handsomeness while seated in the front chariot surrounded by women wearing tunics and big smiles.

Following the incident, Fabio was taken to a local hospital, where he was treated for minor cuts and released. A Busch Gardens spokeswoman said, "He's absolutely fine." The condition of the bird was unknown.
