There are all sorts of neat things to spot with Google Earth and Google Street View. Apparently including some guy that's ****canned and passed out in his neighborhood.
When this drunken Aussie was shaken awake by police he prayed none of the neighbors had seen him collapsed on the curb. Unfortunately millions could gaze at his slumped form. For at the moment he passed out, Google's Street View camera car was filming in that corner of Melbourne. And the man - identified only as Bill, 46, - is not happy. The fisherman who had been drowning his sorrows at a funeral, said: "I wasn't thinking there would be someone driving by with a camera."
Now I've never been to a jeans and tennis shoe funeral, but I'm sure they exist. But Bill, a word of advice -- there is ALWAYS somebody driving by with a camera. If it's not Google, it's the government or a psycho ex-girlfriend. Or maybe the PI your wife hired to catch you cheating. My point is this: if you have to pass out, keep your legs out of the ****ing street. Because if the camera car had been driving anything like I do, now performing a Google search for "your legs" wouldn't find any matches.
Hit the jump to see a picture of a Google Street View of a house on fire from Sherwood, Arkansas.
