Steve-O is known for his crazy, over-the-top stunts on 'Jackass,' but the Los Angeles police were not amused with his latest one.
Police arrested Steve-O, whose real name is Stephen Glover, on Sunday night after he climbed a crane towering at least 100 feet above the ground at a construction site in Hollywood in protest of SeaWorld.
According to NBC Los Angeles, the stunt performer had inflated a large killer whale balloon with a message about SeaWorld, and at one point set off fireworks from the tip of the crane. Steve-O posted a play-by-play on his Facebook page.
"Anyone want to bail me out of jail?" the star posted to Facebook along with a video showing rescue crews responding to the scene. Firefighters prepared a safety cushion below in case of a fall.
Steve-O could face several charges including conspiracy to commit a crime and trespassing.
This isn't the first time Steve-O has protested against the theme park. Last year, police say he changed a freeway sign to say 'SeaWorld Sucks.' He was fined $239.
This is Shammy. We're going to do a big dangerous stunt in Los Angeles tomorrow that will probably get me in a lot of...

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.
