Naked Man to Cops: I’m Making This Tree My Home

Well, that makes sense.

03.26.2014 | Matt Fox |

Total shocker here, I know, but it would appear that this incident is drug related. It involves a 40-year old naked man named Michael Howard Long, who decided to climb a tree in his backyard at 5AM…and refused to come down.

The man insisted that he had decided to make the tree his home, but police weren’t content with the nude dude’s answer. He was more than 40 feet up the tree by the time officers arrived on the scene.

It took over an hour of negotiations, but eventually, cops were able to talk Mr. Long down, where they booked him for public lewdness and disorderly conduct. Hey, if you have to rescue something from a tree at 5:00 in the morning, better it be a naked human than a pesky cat, right? By the way, I’m totally loving that mug shot, Michael. Someone please let Bieber know that’s how it’s done.

Oh, the things we do when we’re wasted. And naked. Speaking of weirdo pervs in trees, that reminds me…

Now, it’s your turn to share a proud moment–everyone’s got one. Comment below.
