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 2010she 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 2a.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
