This video is called A squirrel nabbed my GoPro and carried it up a tree (and then dropped it).
From the Daily Telegraph in Britain about this video:
Cheeky squirrel steals a GoPro camera
Footage of an inquisitive squirrel stealing a GoPro camera and dragging it up a tree has gone viral online
17 Nov 2014
You don’t always need the high-production values of David Attenborough‘s Life Story, a team of experienced wildlife cameramen and the patience of a saint to put together an impressive animal video.
As the clip above demonstrates, sometimes you just need a GoPro camera and a slice of bread.
Montreal resident David Freiheit left his camera, with bait attached, at the base of a tree and stood nearby as an inquisitive squirrel approached.
The cheeky animal then dragged the camera up the tree, inadvertently filming Mr Freiheit in the process. Upon realising that the GoPro was not particularly tasty, the squirrel then jettisoned the camera onto the pavement below.
After being published on YouTube, Mr Freiheit’s footage has been viewed over 600,000 times. Completely nuts.
He’s lucky he got his camera back. That squirrel could, just as likely, buried it in a hole with a pile of nuts.

Yes, but it should have been a bigger hole than usually then 🙂

For sure. But they are very crafty little animals. We found peanuts hidden in our Barbecue. Guess who did that?
