A British pensioner has stunned doctors after he recorded what could be the world’s slowest ever heart beat - slower than the world’s top athletes and even that of an elephant. 一位英国老人的心跳速率让医生们为之震惊，因为他大概打破了世界最慢心跳的记录——比世界顶尖的运动员，甚至大象还慢。 Super-fit Daniel Green, 81, could not believe it when medics said his heart rate had dropped to just 26 beats per minute - lower than Sir Bradley Wiggins and Mo Farah at rest, 35bpm and 33bpm respectively. 今年81岁却身体硬朗的丹尼尔·格林得知自己的心跳每分钟只有26下时也难以置信。因为这个速率比自行车运动员布拉德利·威金斯的每分钟35下，和英国田径运动员莫·法拉的每分钟33下还慢得多。 Mr Green was having a check-up when doctors said his resting rate was 36bpm but dropped to 26 - lower than the world record. 当时格林正在进行身体检查，医生告知他，其心跳从原来的1分钟36下降至26下，比世界纪录还低。 The official Guinness World Record holder is Martin Brady, 45, of Guernsey, who recorded a heartbeat of 27bpm. 目前吉尼斯世界纪录的保持者是一个名叫 马丁·布莱迪的男子，现年45岁，他的心跳速率是每分钟27下。 Doctors only realised Mr Green’s incredible heart rate after they hooked him up to an ECG machine for 24 hours. |
