Famous YouTube prankster Vitaly Zdorovetskiy has released a video, following his arrest for climbing the iconic Hollywood sign earlier this week.
The four-minute video titled “Sneaking on the Hollywood sign” showed Zdorovetskiy briefly talking to the camera before the climb and then showed some of the news coverage from major television channels he received from this ordeal.
“I’ve been gone for a while but now I am back in a very big way.
“It was nice and peaceful (up there). I can see the whole of Los Angeles. The villains miss me so I got to show who is back,” he said in the video.
The video has since generated almost 700,000 views and received 69,000 Likes.
As reported by Mashable, the incident happened on Wednesday when rangers from the Los Angeles City Department of Recreation noticed Zdorovetskiy climbing the 'D' sign while carrying a flag that reads "I'm back!".
They immediately turned him over to the police and investigations are still on-going.
Zdorovetskiy started uploading prank videos since 2011 but found success in 2012 with his video “Miami Zombie Attack Prank!”.
He has since garnered 9 million subscribers with over 1 billion views.
