A 28-year-old Laguna Niguel man has been charged with trespassing on suspicion of jumping into the ocean and a pool from private property and then posting videos of the incidents on YouTube, authorities said Wednesday.

Anthony Booth Armer is facing two misdemeanor counts of unauthorized entry of a dwelling and one misdemeanor count of trespassing with the intent to interfere with business, the Orange County District Attorney’s Office announced.

Armer is accused of trespassing on at least three different occasions and then posting the videos on his YouTube account. Last week, police said they were investigating the videos after the posts garnered media attention.

The YouTube account, under the user name 8Booth, shows different leaps from Orange County cliffs and hotels, with 32 videos posted over the past three months that have been viewed nearly 10 million times in all.

On July 21, prosecutors said, Armer climbed over a wall onto the gated property of a private home in Laguna Beach, where he then climbed onto the roof and jumped into the ocean near Table Rock Beach.

The Laguna Beach Police Department investigated the incident after the homeowner confirmed that Armer did not have permission to access the property, prosecutors said.

On Sept. 29, Armer is accused of climbing over a wall into an employee-only area of the Surf and Sand Hotel in Laguna Beach. Armer, who was not a guest of the hotel, then climbed onto to the fifth floor and jumped into the gated pool, prosecutors said. Hotel employees had reported the event to Laguna Beach police.

At about 9 a.m. on Oct. 6, prosecutors said Armer entered Newport Towers, a private residential building in Newport Beach, where he ran up several flights of stairs and jumped from the roof to the harbor below.

Laguna Beach police arrested Armer at 7:45 a.m. Wednesday, authorities said.
