A man was left mortified when he caught his neighbour in a bizarre act thanks to his Ring floodlight camera. But when he went to investigate, things just got weirder
What would you do if you caught your neighbour doing something totally unforgivable on your driveway? That was exactly what happened to one man who noticed something unusual on his Ring floodlight camera. He initially brushed off the odd behaviour and “let it slide”, but when he caught his neighbour doing the same thing a few hours later, he began to grow suspicious and didn’t know what to do.
So, what was the behaviour that had him disgusted, and wondering whether he’d be able to forgive the neighbour? The elderly neighbour was “peeing against” his back gate. The man took to Reddit’s ‘Neighbours From Hell’ forum to explain he’d put the Ring floodlight camera behind his garage, to help him ride his motorbike “into the garage at night.”
However, he ended up catching more than he bargained for on the camera when he accidentally filmed the “old guy peeing” against his gate.
“I thought maybe he was unwell and just caught short and let it slide,” he explained.
However, “two hours later,” and he was “back doing it again” in the same place. But this time, the man decided to “turn on the siren” and told him “to do one” through the speaker system.
It wasn’t long before the man recognised him as his neighbour who “lives down the road.” But things took an even stranger turn when he went to look at the fence.
He described it as “very stained,” making him question whether this strange behaviour may have been “going on for months or years”. “So has this guy got some weird compulsion?” he wondered.
He wrote: “It feels really creepy and a bit like deviant behaviour. There is a public park behind the service road, so you wonder if there is some risk thrill side to this? He also seems to unzip long before he gets to the spot.
“I posted on the neighbours’ WhatsApp group and apart from a few shocked face emojis, the family of the man haven’t said anything yet. Do I go and talk to them about it? Will the siren be enough to stop it?”
In the comments, someone suggested getting petty revenge on him by posting the video in the street WhatsApp group to “shame him.”
They fumed: “Post the video of him exposing himself (with a trigger warning) on the group. Say nothing, and send it to them directly. Again, say nothing. Should get shamed for it (at the bare minimum)”.
The original poster said that he didn’t want to go this far, because he worried he “wouldn’t feel any shame but his family might”. He described the situation as “really odd”.
In the end, he said he messaged the family and asked them to tell him to stop.
