The Russian city of Krasnoyarsk recently hosted the country’s first ever amateur face-slapping championship, which had participants slap each other across the face until one of them got knocked out.
俄羅斯城市克拉斯諾雅茨克前不久舉辦了該國首個業(yè)余打臉錦標(biāo)賽，參賽者互扇耳光，直到其中一方被擊敗。
The controversial event was held during the Siberian Power Show, a popular sports show held in Krasnoyarsk on March 16 and 17. A similar competition took place last year, in Moscow, but it featured only professional athletes competing for the unofficial title of most heavy-handed face slapper.
這項(xiàng)備受爭議的賽事是西伯利亞力量秀的一個項(xiàng)目，這場熱門運(yùn)動秀于3月16日至17日在克拉斯諾雅茨克舉行。去年在莫斯科也開展了一個類似的打臉比賽，但參賽的都是專業(yè)運(yùn)動員，他們參加比賽是為了爭奪“辣手打臉冠軍”的非官方頭銜。
This time, organizers decided to give amateurs the chance to prove themselves, so anyone willing to engage in some manly face slapping was invited to sign up. Most of the participants were just random guys who had come to attend the power show and decided to try something new. It’s fair to say that some of them didn’t know the world of pain they would be experiencing at the hands of a mountain of a man…
這一次，主辦方?jīng)Q定給業(yè)余人士一個機(jī)會來證明自己，因此任何愿意參加打臉比賽的人都可以報(bào)名。大多數(shù)參賽者只是來參觀力量秀的過客，他們決定嘗試一下新事物。說實(shí)話，其中一些人沒有意識到自己落在大塊頭手里會疼成啥樣。
In this amateur face-slapping championship, competitors faced each other across a small table similar to the ones used in arm-wrestling competitions, and hit each other across the face with the palm of their hands. Ideally, one of the two men would be knocked out by the slap, but if both were left standing after taking three slaps, a judge would decide the winner based on power and technique.
在這場業(yè)余打臉錦標(biāo)賽中，選手們隔著一張小桌子(和扳手腕比賽用的小桌子類似)面對面，用手掌打?qū)Ψ降哪槨＠硐肭闆r下，其中一個人會被一巴掌打倒，但如果在互相扇了三個耳光后雙方都屹立不倒，裁判就會根據(jù)打臉的力度和技巧來判定獲勝者。
Although face-slapping isn’t an official sport (yet), the competition did have some simple rules. Participants were not allowed to hit opponents with the bottom part of their palm, only with the fingers and the upper half of the palm, to avoid causing serious injuries. They were also forbidden from targeting opponents’ temples, ears and eyes. These measures were meant to protect competitors, but when you’re an average-weight man getting slapped by a 350-pound heavy-handed farmer, they don’t really help much.
盡管打臉比賽還不是一項(xiàng)正式運(yùn)動，但這項(xiàng)比賽還是有一些簡單規(guī)則的。參賽者不能用手掌底部打?qū)Ψ降哪?，只能用手指和手掌的上半部，以避免造成重傷。比賽還禁止選手攻擊對方的太陽穴、耳朵和眼睛。這些措施是為了保護(hù)參賽者，但如果一個正常體重的人被一個體重350磅(317斤)、力道驚人的農(nóng)民打臉，其實(shí)這些措施也沒多大用處。
Apparently, organizers of the face-slapping championship didn’t think it was necessary to have different weight categories, which allowed 28-year-old Vasily Kamotsky, a 168-kg farmer and fitness enthusiast, to decimate the competition. Most of the guys he went up against were about half his size, and their slaps didn’t seem to bother him in the slightest, while his big hands literally knocked down several opponents. You can even see him holding back after almost knocking his first opponent unconscious.
顯然，打臉錦標(biāo)賽的主辦方認(rèn)為沒有必要按參賽者的體重來分級，所以才讓28歲的瓦西里·卡莫茨基——一個體重168公斤的農(nóng)民、健身愛好者——以終結(jié)者姿態(tài)贏得了比賽。他的大部分對手塊頭都只有他的一半，扇過來的耳光似乎一點(diǎn)也撼動不了他，而他的大手則打趴下好幾個對手。你甚至可以看得出，在他差點(diǎn)將第一個對手打暈后，他都不敢使出全力了。
decimate['d?s?,met]: 大批殺害
Kamotsky easily won the face-slapping contest, and while he only got 30,000 rubles ($470) as a prize, he also became an overnight sensation after videos of the competition went viral online. Organizers have already invited him to take part in another face-slapping contest, this time against professional athletes, who they hope will prove a stiffer competition.
卡莫茨基輕而易舉地贏得了打臉比賽，盡管他只能獲得3萬盧布(3139元人民幣)的獎金，但是他卻由于比賽視頻在網(wǎng)上被瘋傳而一夜成名。主辦方已經(jīng)邀請他去參加另外一場打臉比賽，這一次對手都是專業(yè)運(yùn)動員，主辦方希望這次的競爭能激烈一些。
