The man stunned bystanders near the Guild Hall, in the centre of Newcastle-Under-Lyme, shortly after 5pm.
He was completely stripped of clothes, not even wearing any shoes as he walked around in the sun.
Another clip was also shared of what appears to be the same man running across the town centre roundabout during his naked escapade.
It occurred on Saturday, June 28, where Staffordshire recorded temperatures reaching around 24 degrees Celsius.
This incident is the latest in a episode of public nudity reported in the area.
On June 20, a man was seen dancing and flashing his backside to motorists passing on Weston Road in Meir.
A video showed him seated on the pavement that morning wearing cap, shirt and shorts.
He could then be seen standing up and pulling his shorts down to moon at passing vehicles.
Police also attended a half-naked man, who was escorted from a wooded area off Holst Drive in Birches Head last month.
Another naked man was chased by paramedics as he ran along the A500, before being taken to the Royal Stoke University Hospital.

BREAKING NEWS Bob Vylan say they are being 'targeted for speaking up' amid furore over anti-Israel Glastonbury set - as police launch investigation into their performance
Punk band Bob Vylan said today that they were being 'targeted for speaking up' after being criticised for chanting 'Death, death to the IDF' at Glastonbury. Bobby Vylan, one half of the British rap punk duo, led the audience at the festival in Somerset on Saturday in chants that also included 'Free, free Palestine'. The performance at the West Holts Stage was livestreamed by the BBC but the organisation later expressed regret for not stopping its broadcast of the set. The corporation has faced strong criticism for continuing to livestream the performance on iPlayer with on-screen warnings about discriminatory language. Today, Bob Vylan said in a statement on Instagram: 'Today, a good many people would have you believe a punk band is the number one threat to world peace. Last week it was a Palestine pressure group, the week before that it was another band. 'We are not for the death of Jews, Arabs or any other race or group of people. We are for the dismantling of a violent military machine. A machine whose own soldiers were told to use 'unnecessary lethal force' against innocent civilians waiting for aid. A machine that has destroyed much of Gaza. 'We, like those in the spotlight before us, are not the story. We are a distraction from the story. And whatever sanctions we receive will be a distraction. The Government doesn't want us to ask why they remain silent in the face of this atrocity? To ask why they aren't doing more to stop the killing? To feed the starving? 'The more time they talk about Bob Vylan, the less time they spend answering for their criminal inaction. We are being targeted for speaking up. We are not the first. We will not be the last. And if you care for the sanctity of human life and freedom of speech, we urge you to speak up too. Free Palestine.' Irish rap trio Kneecap, including member Liam Og O hAnnaidh who appeared in court last month charged with a terror offence, took to the stage directly after Bob Vylan and led chants of 'Free Palestine'. Yesterday, Avon and Somerset Police said it had launched a probe into both performances after reviewing video footage and audio recordings, with a senior detective appointed to lead the investigation. A police spokesman said: 'This has been recorded as a public order incident at this time while our inquiries are at an early stage. 'The investigation will be evidence-led and will closely consider all appropriate legislation, including relating to hate crimes.' US deputy secretary of state Christopher Landau also announced yesterday that Bob Vylan's American visas had been revoked due to 'their hateful tirade at Glastonbury', with the duo scheduled to tour in Chicago, Brooklyn and Philadelphia in October. Meanwhile it has been revealed that the BBC's director-general Tim Davie was at Glastonbury when Bob Vylan led the chants, during a visit to meet staff on Saturday afternoon. A BBC spokesperson said: 'The director-general was informed of the incident after the performance and at that point he was clear it should not feature in any other Glastonbury coverage.' News of Mr Davie's presence at the festival comes as the Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis berated the BBC for what he called 'the airing of vile Jew-hatred' and the broadcaster's 'belated and mishandled response'. Sir Ephraim wrote on X: 'This is a time of national shame. The airing of vile Jew-hatred at Glastonbury and the BBC's belated and mishandled response, brings confidence in our national broadcaster's ability to treat antisemitism seriously to a new low. 'It should trouble all decent people that now, one need only couch their outright incitement to violence and hatred as edgy political commentary, for ordinary people to not only fail to see it for what it is, but also to cheer it, chant it and celebrate it. 'Toxic Jew-hatred is a threat to our entire society.' Broadcasting regulator Ofcom said it was 'very concerned' by the BBC's decision to continue livestreaming the performance - and the Culture Secretary claimed the issue should have been foreseeable and constituted 'a problem of leadership' for the BBC. In a statement yesterday, the BBC said: 'Millions of people tuned in to enjoy Glastonbury this weekend across the BBC's output but one performance within our livestreams included comments that were deeply offensive. 'The BBC respects freedom of expression but stands firmly against incitement to violence. The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable and have no place on our airwaves. 'We welcome Glastonbury's condemnation of the performance. The performance was part of a livestream of the West Holts stage on BBC iPlayer. 'The judgment on Saturday to issue a warning on screen while streaming online was in line with our editorial guidelines. In addition, we took the decision not to make the performance available on demand. 'The team were dealing with a live situation, but with hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen.' Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy told the Commons yesterday the Government was 'exasperated' with the 'lack of account from the leadership' at the BBC. Ms Nandy said the incident at Worthy Farm had raised 'very, very serious questions at the highest levels of the BBC about the operational oversight and the way in which editorial standards are understood', adding that she wanted to see 'rapid action' from the broadcaster. Cabinet minister Jonathan Reynolds said the scenes at Glastonbury raised wider concerns about society. He told BBC Radio 4's Today: 'There are some lessons, I think, for broadcasters from this, but let's also not shy away from the issue, which is people in a crowd glorifying violence. 'I don't think it's something we'd associate with any music festival, but it's a wider societal problem.' He added: 'It's possible, I think, to be completely concerned by the scenes in Gaza and not stray into the kind of behaviour and endorsement that we saw with that performance. 'And I'm deeply shocked to be honest, that people would even not realise what I think they're participating in when they do that.' Glastonbury Festival organisers also condemned Bob Vylan's chants, saying it was 'appalled' by what was said on stage, adding 'there is no place at Glastonbury for antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence'. Bob Vylan formed in Ipswich in 2017 and have released four albums addressing issues such as racism, masculinity and class. Bobby Vylan is the stage name of Pascal Robinson-Foster, 34, according to reports. His bandmate drummer uses the alias Bobbie Vylan. In a previous statement posted to Instagram yesterday, he said: 'Teaching our children to speak up for the change they want and need is the only way that we make this world a better place. 'As we grow older and our fire starts to possibly dim under the suffocation of adult life and all its responsibilities, it is incredibly important that we encourage and inspire future generations to pick up the torch that was passed to us.'

Wimbledon organisers happy with security measures after Yulia Putintseva issue
Wimbledon organisers are confident security measures at the championships are appropriate following concerns raised by Yulia Putintseva about the behaviour of a spectator. World number 33 Putintseva complained directly to the umpire about a man, whom she described as 'dangerous' and 'crazy', during her 6-0 6-0 first-round defeat to Amanda Anisimova. The PA news agency understands the All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) is happy with safety protocols at the tournament and does not plan to make any changes in the wake of the incident. During a change of ends when trailing 3-0 in the opening set of Monday's match on Court 15, Putintseva said: 'Can you take him out? I am not going to continue playing until he leaves. These people are dangerous, they are crazy.' The 30-year-old Kazakh player, who did not speak to the media after her loss, described the person as wearing green. Umpire Fabio Souza came down from his chair and spoke to three members of security staff. 'Take him out, because maybe he has a knife and he will attack,' added Putintseva, when told play would resume. Putintseva was later pictured in tears during a contest which lasted just 44 minutes. An AELTC spokesperson said: 'Following a complaint about the behaviour of a spectator at the match on Court 15, the chair umpire informed security and the matter was dealt with.' American opponent Anisimova told the BBC she believed the spectator had been saying something 'when (Putintseva) was about to serve' and added: 'I am sure that we were protected'. Player safety was in the spotlight in the run up to Wimbledon. The man given a restraining order for stalking British number one Emma Raducanu was caught trying to obtain tickets for this summer's championship when his name was flagged by the All England Club's security system. Meanwhile, British number two Katie Boulter revealed she had received death threats as she highlighted the scale of abuse aimed at tennis players online.
