As Seen On Security Cameras

[carverofchoice]

Anyone care to share what interesting things you’ve seen on your camera(s)?

I just recently recorded my 16yo daughter T-bone / back right into my neighbor’s truck in our culdesac Neighbor was excited when I showed him the video. He didn’t realize my Floodlight Pro was a camera and was actually glad that our little culdesac is covered just in case something happens.

This thread is a video of my cat panicking in a hail storm at our last house:

Hail Storm makes my cat panic for somewhere safe

Poor little “Kovu” finally ran to a neighbor’s bush and refused to come out until the ice turned to mostly rain. Those pellets were decently large (several were at least 1" diameter) and coming pretty hard and fast. They were stinging me pretty good running in from the backyard.

I caught a video of my toddler tripping and falling into our swimming pool before she could swim. Luckily I was right next to her when it happened, so I got her out right away (we have a fence, so she was only allowed near the pool because I was already nearby for just this reason). (No I will not post that video)

My cameras helped with a bird-murder mystery:

Who dunnit? The bird murder-mystery

I found a dead bird on my porch: [image] I have several cats and they were the obvious suspects. Suspect Kovu: [image]

This guy thinks he’s the boss, and does the most hunting (he’s caught a lot of things, sometimes he eats them, sometimes he doesn’t even kill them). Sometimes when he gets bored, he will beat up on the other cats. He loves people and will run up to strangers and roll over and beg to petted.

He’s an animal shelter rescue. When we got him, h…

While not a Wyze video, that thread also has a cool video about the moment I tell my then pre-teen or lower teen daughter her long lost Tuxedo cat is still alive.

IDK, a lot of the “interesting” videos I capture are mostly personal/family videos. I got my oldest daughter as a pre-teen saying she “knows all of English” already, and I don’t let her live that down to this day. Any time she doesn’t know a word, I exclaim in mock surprise “WHAT!!! I thought you know ALL of English!!!” Poor girl…mean dad.

Oh, my daughter played Fortnite on my old computer and accidentally clicked a screen record button while she played. So then months later I played the recording and pretended I was using the keyboard and mouse when she entered the room and watched. She started criticizing me about how horrible I am and how she would never do that and that I don’t know what I’m doing, and how she wouldn’t have missed that shot and all sorts of trash talk. I totally kept setting her up and asking clarifying questions, knowing this was all being caught on camera. Then suddenly the video ended and she was all confused for a second until she realized it was all a recording of her playing and she’d been attacking herself the ENTIRE TIME! That one is so classic.

IDK, I probably have a lot that I am just not thinking of right now.

All I know is that I have 4+ cats and 50 Wyze cams, and somehow @Antonius still has more cat videos than me.
