Man in Wheelchair Climbs Skyscraper
Some people who can't walk use a wheelchair. Wheelchairs help many people
go... well, almost everywhere!
But... what about climbing up the outside of a building with a wheelchair?
有些人不能走路,需要用輪椅才能去其他地方,但坐輪椅能夠攀爬大樓外牆嗎?
Well, one man in Hong Kong did it!
Mr. Lai is a rock climber. But after a car accident, he needs to use a
wheelchair. 香港有個攀岩家做到了,他因為出車禍所以只能坐輪椅。
But he said, "I need to use a wheelchair, but I can still climb...I can use
ropes!" 他說他雖然需要坐輪椅,但可以用繩子爬呀!
He tried to climb a 320-meter skyscraper...on the outside! With only ropes … pulling himself up … in a wheelchair! 他靠繩索拉輪椅,挑戰爬320公尺高的摩天大樓。
But pulling a wheelchair up the outside of a skyscraper is much harder than
rock climbing! 但是爬大樓比攀岩困難多了。
Mr. Lai pulled for more than 10 hours... but the wind was too strong so he
couldn't get to the top. But, he set a new record! He pulled himself and his
wheelchair 250 meters up... on the outside of a skyscraper!
他努力拉了十多個小時,只爬250公尺高,最後因為風太大無法登頂。
Mr Lai says he wants people to know that even if they can't walk...they can
still do amazing things.
他要讓大家知道,雖然不能走路,但還是可以做很多驚奇的事。
