Move over extreme sports, ‘extreme phone pinching’ is guaranteed to deliver an adrenaline rush like never before. Warning: It’s not for the faint-hearted. 极限运动靠边站,现在是“极限捏手机”时代。据说这种活动会令人体肾上腺素分泌暴增,刺激性可以说前所未有。警告:胆小者慎玩。 The nerve-wracking new challenge has people dangling their expensive smartphones over all sorts of dangerous places like toilets, drains, balconies and even high cliffs. There’s only one rule – they’ve got to ‘pinch’ their gadgets using only their thumb and forefinger! 这项超刺激的新挑战要求参与者将昂贵的智能手机悬在各种危险的地方,比如马桶、下水道、阳台边,甚至高高的悬崖上。只有一个规则:挑战者必须仅用拇指和食指“捏”着手机! The bizarre, rather pointless trend was apparently started by Twenty One Pilots, an American indie pop band. They posted a YouTube video of them performing the phone pinch stunt and it spread like wildfire across various social networks, garnering over 300,000 views. Before long, the hashtag #extremephonepinching became a thing and people began tweeting videos and pictures of their own attempts. 这项荒诞、没内涵的活动是美国独立流行乐队“二十一号飞行员”发起的。该乐队将一个表演捏手机的视频上传到YouTube后,该视频很快风靡各种社交网站,目前点击量已超30万次。没过多久,“极限捏手机”就成了热门标签,推特Some of the gifs and videos show people holding their phones over gaps in drains, while others dangle them over balconies several stories high. A few have held them over cliffs, rivers, famous bridges, and even Niagara Falls. One girl tried the challenge when she was in a hot air balloon. “Almost #extremephonepinching on a hot air balloon but my mom yelled at me,” she tweeted. |
