He tied a wire from his clock to a shelf above his bed and placed a heavy stone right on top. And when the alarm rang, the wire would yank the shelf, sending the stone crashing to the floor. You see, his job was to wake up before dawn to extinguish the street lights. So, he created this alarm clock to wake him up on time.
