抱石入坑

字幕原文

I never thought of myself as an athletic person, 我从来没觉得自己是个有运动细胞的人，

and then a friend dragged me to a climbing gym. 直到后来有个朋友把我硬拽去了一家攀岩馆。

My first attempt was humiliating. 我第一次尝试简直丢死人了。

I got about six feet off the ground, 我才刚爬离地面不到两米高，

my arms started shaking, and I climbed right back down. 胳膊就开始直打颤，赶紧又爬了下来。

But something about it hooked me. 但我不知怎的就被它给迷住了。

It's not really about strength. 这其实根本不全靠力气。

It's a puzzle. 它更像是一道谜题。

You stand at the bottom and study the wall, 你得站在底下研究整面岩壁，

working out where to put each hand and foot, 琢磨着每只手、每只脚该往哪儿放，

like a problem you solve with your whole body. 就像是在用整副身体去解一道题。

My hands are covered in calluses now, and I fall constantly. 现在我手上磨得全是老茧，也老是掉下来。

But every time I reach the top of something 但每当我终于登顶了

that beat me last week, 上周怎么也搞不定的线路，

I feel a kind of pride I haven't felt 心里都会涌起一种自豪感，

since I was a kid. 自打小时候起就再也没体会过了。

Falling, it turns out, is just part of climbing. 原来摔下来，本身就是攀岩的一部分。
