瑞典科學家發明死亡手錶 倒數生命
First there was a website that predicted when your parents would die; now there's a watch that not only predicts when you will die, it also begins counting down.
先是出現了一個能預測你雙親何時去世的網站；現在有一種手錶，不僅能預測你將何時去世，而且開始了死亡倒計時。
Users fill out a questionnaire about their medical history before subtracting their age from the overall results to get their death score. This score is entered into the Tikker and the countdown begins.
使用者首先要填寫一張疾病史的調查問卷，然後根據問卷的綜合結果減去他們的現有年齡，就得到了他們的死亡倒計時數字。這一數字被輸入到手錶Tikker中，倒計時就開始了。
Dubbed the 'death watch', Tikker has been created by Swedish inventor Fredrik Colting but far from being morbid, Colting calls it 'The Happiness Watch' and claims it has been designed to help people make the most of their life and cherish the time they have left.
Tikker又被稱爲“死亡手錶”，是瑞士發明家弗裏德里克·科爾廷發明的。科爾廷絕非出於病態的意圖，他把這款手錶稱爲“幸福手錶”，並稱他的設計意圖是幫助人們更好的實現生活價值，珍惜所剩下的光陰。
'Imagine someone told you that you only had one year left to live. How would that change your life? For all of us life comes with a best-before date,' said Colting.
“想象一下如果有人告訴你，你的生命只剩下一年時間，你的生活會發生什麼變化？對於我們所有人來說，生命都是一次前所未有的約會。” 科爾廷這樣表示。
'While death is non-negotiable, life isn’t. All we have to do is learn how to cherish the time and the life that we have been given; seize the day and follow our hearts.'
“雖然死亡是不可避免的，生活方式卻是可以選擇的。我們所必須做的就是學習如何珍惜時間和我們被賜予的生命。把握今天，隨心而行。”
Colting came up with the idea when his grandfather passed away. To set up Tikker, the wearer fills out a questionnaire by entering information about their medical history.
科爾廷是在祖父去世時產生了發明此物的念頭。佩戴Tikker的人只需填寫一份關於疾病史信息的調查問卷，就可以啓動手錶。
They are also asked whether they drink or smoke and if there are any instances of cancer, diabetes and other diseases in their family.
問卷還會問及佩戴者是否酗酒，抽菸，有無癌症，糖尿病等家族病史。
Wearers are additionally asked about how much exercise they do, as well as how much they weigh before receiving a score.
同時佩戴者們還會被問及他們是否鍛鍊身體，在得出死亡倒計時數字之前體重多少。
Their age is then deducted from the results to predict a death date, and the Tikker begins the countdown.
然後從結果中減去他們現有的年齡，Tikker就開始倒計時了。
