Russian YouTube comedian Vitaly Zdorovetskiy streaks onto the field during the final of the FIFA World Cup 2014 on July 13, 2014. During the second half of the final World Cup match on Sunday, the camera switched to a beautiful scene of Brazil's Christ the Redeemer statue, but what many of us didn't know was that this was a clever move to hide a streaker who had run onto the pitch. He then attempted to kiss German player Benedikt Howedes.

But luckily, the moment was captured in an Instagram video by NBA star LeBron James, who happened to be in Brazil to catch the championship match.

The moment was also captured by a few users on Twitter.
