Earth Hour Malaysia 2009 by TV Smith
I set up the video camera on a tripod at about 8pm. Then as Earth Hour approaches, carloads of people showed up suddenly. They swarmed the once tranquil look-out point. It soon became so crowded that people were squeezing too close to the tripod. Expectedly, some idiots kicked the tripod legs accidentally and ruined the entire sequence. I should kick myself for revealing this location to the world in an earlier video.

But the show must go on. Fortunately, I had the Olympus E-3 SLR clamped to the top of my vehicle and it remotely captured some great pics of the voluntary blackout of Kuala Lumpur city. These were combined with the earlier time lapse sequence of the Petronas Twin Towers to form the final video.

Vesti la Giubba (Put on the costume) is a famous tenor aria performed as part of the opera Pagliacci, written and composed by Ruggero Leoncavallo and first performed in 1892. Vesti la Giubba is the conclusion of the first act, when Canio discovers his wife's infidelity, but must nevertheless prepare for his performance as Pagliaccio the clown because 'the show must go on'... source: Wikipedia
