Steve-O was arrested on Sunday night for protesting SeaWorld in Los Angeles. The Jackass star climbed a crane with a bag that read SeaWorld Sucks and left an inflatable whale up there to make his point.

He announced his plans for the protest on Saturday, posting a photo of the inflatable whale he named Shammy.
“This is Shammy. We're gonna do a big dangerous stunt tomorrow in Los Angeles that will probably get me in a lot of trouble, and you can watch it happen at 7pm PST via a live stream on my Facebook page,” he wrote, adding the hashtags, “#SeeYouAt7pmTomorrow #yeahdude.”
Steve-O, who’s been sober since 2008, foreshadowed the events correctly. He posted a video of himself up in the air on the crane and wrote, “Anyone wanna bail me out of jail?”
CBS Los Angeles reports as soon as he got down on the ground safely, officers from the Los Angeles Police Department were waiting for him to arrest him.
His profanity-filled documentation of the human rights protest stunt was posted to his Facebook page.

Did I mention that I'm really high in the air? Hearing sirens now. Check the video I posted at 7pm to see what I'm doing. I'll stream live again soon for the stunts.
