After capturing the harrowing moment a plane went down off a Hawaiian island, a crash survivor turned his GoPro camera on himself, snapping a selfie with the sinking aircraft in its background.
夏威夷岛屿起飞的一艘飞机因故坠海,一位幸存者在拍摄了这一恐怖过程之后,把他的GoPro相机对准自己,拍摄一张以下沉飞机为背景的自拍照。
Ferdinand Puentes and eight others, including the pilot, were aboard the Makani Kai Air Cessna when its engine quit on Dec. 11, according to KHON 2. One person was killed.
据夏威夷 KHON 2电视台报道,费迪南德·普恩特斯和包括飞行员在内的其他八人,于2013年12月11日搭乘赛纳斯飞机航班。其中一人遇难身亡。
"Sirens and bells" started to sound on the plane, Puentes told KHON 2, and the Ewa Beach, HI native turned on his camera, recording footage of the traumatic ordeal.
普恩特斯是夏威夷伊娃海滨的本地人,他对KHON 2电视台记者表示,飞机报警器响起来的时候他打开了自己的相机,拍摄视频短片记录下这一危险时刻。
"I had to make sure it was on," the 39-year-old told Hawaii News Now, adding that he had two GoPro cameras and he initially wanted to record the take-off.
普恩特斯在接受《夏威夷今日新闻》采访时说:“我得确保相机已经打开了。” 同时他补充说自己有两部GoPro极限运动专用相机,他本打算拍摄飞机起飞过程的。
In images released to Hawaii News Now, Puentes is seen clinging onto a wing of the aircraft. Another image shows other passengers holding on to plane debris to stay afloat.
在《夏威夷今日新闻》发布的照片中,可以看到普恩特斯正试图爬上飞机羽翼,另一张照片展现了其他乘客抓住飞机残骸以免下沉的场景。
"It was so many things just happening. Is it for real? Is this really happening?" he told Hawaii News Now.
“当时发生了太多事情。这是真的吗?坠机真的发生了吗?”他对《夏威夷今日新闻》记者感慨道。
But even with the sheer shock of the crash, Puentes reversed the camera on himself.
但即使是在坠机的紧要关头,普恩特斯都没放下相机。
In a bright yellow life preserver, in the Pacific Ocean, clutching onto a seat cushion, he took a selfie; the tail of the sinking aircraft behind him.
身着明黄色救生衣漂浮在太平洋上,普恩特斯抓住坐垫拍了张自拍照;身后是坠机的机尾。
According to KHON 2, Puentes was in his work gear.
据KHON 2电视台报道,普恩特斯当时正穿着工作装备。
"My steel-toed boots, my heavy work jeans and my long sleeve shirt. It was pretty hard and exhausting to swim with all that," he said.
普恩特斯说:“我当时穿着铁头靴子、沉重的工作牛仔裤和长袖衬衫,没法游泳。”
In Puentes' video released to ABC News, the alarm sounds aboard the plane as it crash-lands into the water. Passengers can be seen putting on life-preservers as water begins to seep in.
在普恩特斯提供给ABC新闻的视频中可以看到,警报响起后飞机坠落在海洋里,海水迅速涌入,乘客们匆忙穿上救生衣。
They calmly exit the aircraft.
