The story of The Raccoon Kept the Camera

The kid hosts fitted little camera harnesses on turtles, ducks and one very annoyed raccoon, then played the shaky footage back in slow motion. The squirrel episode made viewers carsick. Kids at home tried strapping disposable cameras to their pets, which never once worked, but the attempts were legendary.

Fun fact

The raccoon kept its camera for three days and filmed the inside of a dumpster in perfect focus.
