A 28-year-old Frenchman broke the world record Wednesday for standing on a hot-air balloon at altitude. Rémi Ouvrard stood on top of a hot-air balloon for France’s Telethon at an altitude of more than 3,637 meters over Chatellerault, western France.
一名28歲法國人週三打破站在高空熱氣球上的世界紀錄,黑彌.巫伏哈為了法國的電視馬拉松節目,站在法國西部城市沙泰勒羅上空高度超過3637公尺的熱氣球頂部。
The balloon was piloted by Ouvrard’s father, Jean-Daniel Ouvrard, a seasoned pilot. The altitude was not random: It matches the phone number digits of the Telethon campaign, 36-37, an annual event that raises money for research and advocacy related to rare neuromuscular diseases. The hot-air balloon reached a peak altitude of 4,016 meters.
這具熱氣球由巫伏哈的父親、經驗豐富的飛行員炯-丹尼耶勒.巫伏哈所操駕。此一高度並非選意選擇:它符合了這個電視馬拉松運動的電話號碼數字36-37,這是為罕見神經肌肉疾病的研究和宣傳而募款的年度活動。這具熱氣球最高高度達到4016公尺。
Once he landed after his feat Wednesday, he told local reporters he experienced “a feeling of ‘zenitude’ mixed with the excitement of the performance.”
週三當他結束壯舉落地後,告訴當地記者他經歷到「一種『禪意』與表演的興奮相混合的感覺」。
“When we passed the 3,500 meters, I knew that we could get the 4,000. We had to beat the iron when it was still hot,” he said.
當我通過3500公尺時,我知道我們可以升到4000公尺。他說:「我們得打鐵趁熱。」
