Maxime Alexandrov, 23, uses hidden cameras on his YouTube channel, which has more than 400,000 subscribers.
But some of his pranks aren't to everyone's taste.
In December 2022, a young man was tricked by a hidden camera from "La Menace".

Thinking of going to a simple appointment made on a dating application, the 22-year-old man discovers a horror scene.
He sees a body bathing in a pool of blood.
Convinced that it is a real corpse, the young man fled and warned the police.
The trauma is such that a total incapacity for work (ITT) of fifteen days has been prescribed.
After this hoax, “La Menace” was placed in police custody and then tried for violence.
But that's not all, he was also tried for quality usurpation following a video where he pretends to be a policeman.
The youtuber carried out false identity checks, going so far as to handcuff certain passers-by.
For these two videos, a suspended prison sentence was requested against “La Menace”.
The court will make its decision in February.
