00:00 Why don't you make like a tree and go viral?
00:03 A man from Portland, Maine was recently
00:05 arrested for blocking traffic while impersonating a tree.
00:09 30-year-old Asher Woodworth covered his entire face
00:18 and body in evergreen branches and slowly walked
00:22 across the intersection.

00:27 I'm surprised this guy is 30 years old because he's walking
00:35 like he's like 80 years old.
00:37 Photos and videos started cropping up all over Twitter,
00:40 and one guy even got footage of the tree being arrested.
00:43 Woodworth stayed silent through the arrest,
00:45 and officers let him go with just a warning.
00:48 The police reported that--
00:49 People do bizarre things because they want to get arrested.
00:52 We're still not sure if he was trying to make a statement.
00:56 People on Twitter are having a great time with tree puns.
00:59 Brian Talbot says, "Have to command the officers
01:02 for arresting the man before he branched out
01:04 into more serious crimes."
01:07 Mere Tim says, "What a sap!"
