This Man Who Was Jailed For Dressing Like A Tree Is Actually Sexy AF

Have you ever wanted to just run away and hide from all of your responsibilities?

I don't know if that was this guy's intention, but I think he took the saying "make like a tree and leave" a little too seriously.

This guy dressed up like a tree in Portland, Maine and got arrested for obstructing a public way. The video of him being arrested has been going viral on Twitter ever since.

People are calling him Tree Man, but the "man behind the branches" is really named Asher Woodworth (C'mon... ASHer WOODworth? Holy shit, this is comedy gold, people!)

They tried to give him a warning, but apparently Woodworth wouldn't answer the police's questions and obviously didn't listen to their instructions.

If you don't think this is weird already, the reason why he chose to do this is even weirder.

An editor for the Portland local news station TVTEDDY wrote on Twitter,

Police say 'tree guy' is 30 year old Asher Woodworth? He told police he wanted to see how his act affected 'people's natural choreography.'

This sounds like something Jaden Smith would say, honestly.

But the most interesting part of this all is... HE'S SUPER HOT.

Here's the man behind the branches. Asher Woodworth was released on $60 bail tonight. #WGME pic.twitter.com/4WvIZWF34W — Dan Lampariello (@DanWGME) October 25, 2016

Me: *Calls parents.* Dad, I need $60 ASAP.... Why?! Um... For... reasons.

I took to Twitter to see if any of my other thirsty gals agree, but I guess I'm the only one who is having this serious revelation about Tree Man.

I mean, I hope it's Christmas. And Tree Man can be my present.

Jessie is right -- 2016 has been a hot mess.

Asher Woodworth definitely gets the hot part right. And I'm down to get messy.

Now that we all know he's sexy as hell, that makes him less of a weirdo and more artsy, right? Riiiiiiight. That's what I'm gonna keep telling myself.

BRB, I have the sudden urge to climb a tree.
