A camera that was set up in Toronto's High Park to let people follow the blooming cherry blossoms, known as the BloomCam, caught more than was expected on Sunday night. The footage revealed that two people snuck into High Park in the night to climb some trees.
The late night bandits were caught climbing delicate sakura trees, according to Blog To. The webcam streams 24 hours a day and one Toronto resident witnessed their escapades and posted photos of them to Twitter.

View on XThe photos weren't enough to identify the tree climbers exactly however one of the climbers seemed to out himself by posting his own evidence of the evening to his Instagram account.
The Instagram account mosedede posted a photo of one of them hanging from a sakura tree, alongside the caption "#cheetah #someoneelsetookthis."
A short while after the account was made private and the photo was taken down. Some people managed to save the photo and recirculate it, providing a relatively clear image of one of the climbers.
Their identities remain unknown at this time.
