一段令人咋舌的视频,显示了一俄罗斯男子瞬间造雾的过程:方法很简单,直接把开水从阳台倒出去。
It was shot in an unidentified Russian town where the outside temperature, according to a weather report, is colder than -40 degrees Celcius.
这个视频拍摄于一个未知名的俄罗斯小镇,根据天气报告,那里的室外温度低于零下40摄氏度。
The YouTube video shows the man take a pot of several litres of boiling hot water on to his balcony and tip it over the side - with the liquid entirely evaporating before it touches the ground.
这段YouTube视频拍摄了一名男子将一锅几升的沸水从阳台倾倒出去,液体在接触到地面之前就完全蒸发成气体。
The one-minute film was uploaded by the Russian-language edition of LifeHacker, a website dedicated to 'tips and downloads for getting things done'.
此段一分钟的视频由俄语版的lifehacker网站上传,该网站专注于为人们提供“让人们能更好完成事情的小贴士和软件”。
It begins with the man in his flat at the top of a Soviet-style block in the depths of winter. For the benefit of viewers at home, he holds up his iPhone to reveal the outside temperature is a breath-stealing -41C.
视频开头拍摄的是该男子在严冬中处在一栋苏俄式大楼顶楼的公寓里。为了方便在家中观看视频的观众,男子举起他的iPhone,上面显示的室外温度令人震惊,达到了零下41摄氏度。
The man then takes the lid of a pot of boiling water he has resting on a side table and walks out onto his balcony, into weather so cold the air is already filled with mist and the surrounding neighbourhood is carpeted with snow.
接着,该男子揭开他放在旁边桌子上装着沸水锅的盖子,走到阳台上去。外面的天气极冷,空气中充满薄雾,周围都被一层厚厚的雪覆盖。
Gripping the pot in two gloved hands, he flashes a grin to the camera before hefting the entire contents over the edge.
他用戴着手套的双手握住锅把,对着镜头闪过一丝微笑,继而端起整锅开水从边上倒了下去。
But rather than the expected torrent of scalding water pouring down the side of the block, the contents of the pan vanish in a puff of steam.
然而和我们预想不同的是,锅里滚烫的水并没有像洪流一样从大楼一侧倾泻下去,而是变成一股蒸汽消失了。
A peer over the side of the balcony shows that none of the water even reaches the snow covered ground below, while a second angle reveals the whole lot has been merely carried gently away on the breeze.
从阳台往下看去,水甚至都没有落到覆盖着积雪的地面上。而从另一个角度则可以看到,这些水全都只是被风轻轻吹散了。
The short film was published on YouTube last Thursday, and has already been watched nearly 500,000 times. YouTube user MegaMikss commented: 'Glory to Russia!'
该短片在上周四在YouTube网站上发布,目前观看量已接近50万。一位名叫MegaMikss的网友评论道:“光荣属于俄罗斯!”
