Footage of a YouTuber explaining and demonstrating how he gets squirrels to steal his camera, after being asked regularly how he does it.

The video, filmed in Montreal, Canada on Sunday, shows the filmer wearing a camera on his head to show people how to make 'squirrel steals camera' videos. His tips clearly work as the cute rodent runs up to the camera and takes it up a tree.

He later wrote online: "A lot of people have asked me how I get the squirrel to take the camera; others have accused me of faking the videos.

"I made this 'tutorial to show you how the 'squirrel stealing the camera' videos are made."

"Remember, if you try this, be prepared to lose your camera, and try and use real nuts; white bread has no nutritional value to a squirrel," he continued.

A lot of people have asked me how I get the squirrel to take the camera. Others have accused me of faking the videos. I made this "tutorial" to show you how the "squirrel stealing the camera" videos are made. Remember, if you try this, be prepared to lose your camera. And try and use real nuts - white bread has no nutritional value to a squirrel ;)
