Squirrel Steals GoPro, Makes Greatest Film of Our Time
Good Housekeeping ^ | Aug. 12, 2016 | Traci Newman

Some rodents are more than scurrying little mammals. Some rodents are auteurs.

This brazen little squirrel director steals a GoPro camera and makes a video shot entirely from its point of view, giving us a private tour of the trees from up above. After snatching the camera off the ground, it takes off running and scales the tree, showing us a day in the life of the intrepid little explorer.

Thankfully, the squirrel also had excellent manners, and made sure to drop the camera back down where the owner could easily grab it and share this visionary masterpiece.

Anybody know where this was filmed? The building in the background looks like my high school in Glen Ellyn, Illinois.

Westmount Park, Montreal

Squirrel picks up something that heavy?

Not that heavy.
Motorcycle riders use them as HD helmetcams.

Not much heavier than a lipstick.

Ahh squirrels, natures crackhead, they are always full of energy and will steal anything not bolted down.
