Three minors have been arrested after posting a TikTok while climbing the Champlain Bridge tower.

Three young men who climbed the Champlain Bridge tower in Montreal and posted the video on social media have been arrested.

The video shows their view as they reach the top of the 170-meter tower, which is equivalent to a 40-story building. It was posted on TikTok but later removed.

Quebec provincial police said Monday that three suspects, all minors, broke into the building on January 20 and 21. They have since been arrested for breaking and entering and released on a promise to appear in court at a later date.

After the video surfaced online, the bridge authority said it had launched an investigation into the “safety breach” and would determine what corrective measures should be taken.
