CCTV cameras watch action
In UK , Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras are everywhere. They help the police solve crimes and keep the streets safe. But that’s not all they do . They also catch people doing very stupid or smart things.
One of
the videos is of a British woman Mary Bale. She clearly doesn"t like cats. In 2010 she was caught on CCTV throwing one into a dustbin. The video shows Mary walking down a quiet street. All of sudden , she notices Lola the cat jump onto a fence. Mary stops to pickup Lola and drops her into a large dustbin .
Lola was saved fifteen hours later. And Mary was arrested for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal .
She was fined ( 罚款) ￡250 and was not allowed to own pets for five years.
Another video shows "Britain’s drunkest man" . He’s been at a party at London"s Savoy Hotel. And he’d obviously had a few too many glasses of beer. At about 2 a. m. , he was kicked out for being too drunk .
So, he decided to walk home. On the way , CCTV cameras filmed him falling down stairs and crossing the
roads madly… A Savoy Hotel waiter said, " It"s amazing he didn’t hurt himself badly."
Sometimes they also record smart events. Once a British band The Get Out Clause didn"t have any money to make a music video. So , they came up with an unbelievable idea. They set up their instruments ( 乐器) and played a song in front of eight CCTV cameras. And then, according to the English Freedom of Information Act , they asked for a copy of all the footages ( 视频) , which they edited. The result is that a totally
new music video was made, and it didn’t cost them a penny.
