Largest Group Streaks

5.最大的裸奔團體

It should come as no surprise that the "Epidemic of '73" led to quite a few infamous records that has never been broken. On March 7, 1974, the record for the largest group streak was established when 1,543 students at the University of Georgia streaked as one. Wearing nothing but the odd ski-mask and pair of gym shorts (as a mask of course), the students were officially counted as they left the campus and ran three quarters of a mile.

1973年那場裸體風潮創造了幾個名聲不太好的記錄,後人一直無法打破,這些倒不是很讓人意外。但在1974年3月7日,誕生了一項最大裸奔團體的記錄,來自喬治亞大學的1543名學生集體脫光,只戴着古怪的滑雪面罩,穿着運動短褲。學生們煞有介事的組織了一場校外半公里的裸跑。

The University of Colorado holds second place with their claimed 1,200 streakers while the University of Maryland holds the third place with 553 students – proving once and for all that university is all about knowledge, research and learning.

科羅拉多大學組織了第二大的裸跑會,他們宣佈共有1200名裸跑者,而馬里蘭大學舉辦的裸跑會有553名學生參與,是爲第三大。跟風的學校很好地證明了——大學宗旨就是知識、探索和學習。

aking as a Team

4.集體裸奔

無奇不有! 關於裸奔的10個有趣故事(下) 第2張

Though streaking might be one of the safer naked group activities at colleges today, nobody in the 1970's would have guessed that it would become as organised and goal-oriented as team Sports. The streaking team of Hamilton College, "Streak to Win", is in fact so dedicated to their cause that they embarked on a streaking tour in 2008; achieving 12 streaks at neighboring colleges in only five days.

現如今,在大學校園裏,目睹或參與"裸奔"乃至"集體裸奔"的大有人在,這些詞彙不再顯得"陌生"和"罕見"。但在19世紀70年代,有誰會想到這玩意兒會逐漸演變成爲"有組織""有計劃"的"集體活動"呢?這類裸奔活動,在各校的叫法不同。美國漢密爾頓學院稱之爲"奔向勝利"。,參與者們爲什麼如此熱衷?2008年,也就是他們剛剛踏上"裸奔之旅"時,僅在短短五天之內,鄰校便有足足12名"有意者"積極響應,這完全在他們的意料之外。

The "Springstreakers" of Williams College in Massachusetts have certain established streaks and one can usually catch a swinging glimpse of them at freshman orientation or at Super Bowl parties. Their surprisingly modest rules include to only streak when sober and to abstain from streaking children.

美國馬薩諸塞州的威廉姆斯學院,其裸奔組織名爲"Springstreakers",且已建立了明確的"裸奔守則/裸奔須知"。他們一般會在新生訓練營或"超級碗"派對時舉行重大的"裸奔事宜"。那個時候,有興趣的人們往往可以"一飽眼福""趁機漲姿勢"。出乎意料的是,他們的"裸奔守則"十分"保守",他們只組織進行清醒狀態下的"裸奔",並拒絕未成年人蔘與其中。

3.A Public Spanking and a Criminal Sentence

3."當衆打屁股"成"刑事判決"?

無奇不有! 關於裸奔的10個有趣故事(下) 第3張

Amusingly, streaks have been known to go wrong. And boy, can they go wrong! Apart from the senseless saucy sprint made by Juan Rodriguez in 2011 at President Barack Obama's rally (which saw him slapped with two years' probation), several other notable incidents have taken place over the years. While we may not all approve of the odd bit of bare skinned spanking, it definitely has its moments.

令人啼笑皆非的是,某些裸奔活動漸漸"跑偏"了。更有甚者,已經越跑越偏了!據新華社報道,美國男子胡安·羅德里格斯曾在總統貝拉克·奧巴馬參加的一場集會上裸奔,他因此獲判兩年監外查看。接下來的幾年中,還陸陸續續發生了多起類似的"著名事件"。並非所有人都能接受當衆暴露,當衆被警方"打屁股"的懲罰,但有些時候,有的人確實也就這麼去做了。

During a cricket match in 1977, an Australian cricketer by the name of Greg Chappell decided to put his cricket bat to better use when an unfortunate fellow by the name of Bruce McCauley decided to strut his stuff on the cricket pitch.

在1977年澳大利亞的一場半球比賽舉行期間,一位名叫葛瑞格·恰波的板球運動員決定更好地運用他的板球球棒——他實在看不下去了,將他手中的球棒用作那個趾高氣昂行走在板球賽場上的裸奔者的"遮羞棒"。

aking at Totally Unlikely Sports Events

2.在本不可能出現裸奔的體育賽事上裸奔

無奇不有! 關於裸奔的10個有趣故事(下) 第4張

Snooker and tennis might be seen as some of the more "civilized" sports by some, but on several occasions streakers have proved that the ball-games could do with a bit more exposure. The most notable of these happened in the final of the 1997 Benson & Hedges Masters between Steve Davis and Ronnie O'Sullivan when Lianne Crofts jiggled her way around the snooker table amidst appreciative cheers.

在一些人眼中,斯諾克檯球和網球也許是更爲"文明"的運動,但一些裸奔愛好者聲稱在某些場合進行球類運動時你可以穿得更爲暴露點。最著名的例子莫過於那場1997年末舉行的那場本森·赫奇斯大賽了。史蒂夫·戴維斯對決羅尼·奧沙利文時,麗芬尼·克羅夫茨在斯諾克球桌旁搔首弄姿還獲得了臺下一片叫好。

Tiger Woods also became a smiling victim on the 18th hole at Carnoustie in 1999 when Yvonne Robb not only streaked as he was about the putt, but also stole a kiss in front of 100 million viewers. Unsurprisingly, Tiger's game was not affected and the content young lady gladly paid her resulting fine.

1999年在卡洛斯蒂舉辦的英國公開賽上,泰格·伍茲也當過一次這種飽享眼福的受害者。當時泰格·伍茲正在卡洛斯蒂第18洞擊球入洞,一位名爲伊馮·羅伯的女子不僅當場裸奔,還當着1億觀衆的面偷吻泰格。不出意料,泰格的比賽並沒有因此受到影響,而這位達成目的的年輕女郎也樂於承擔因自己個人行爲帶來的後果。

hing the Oscars

1.裸奔衝入奧斯卡

無奇不有! 關於裸奔的10個有趣故事(下) 第5張

Hollywood's most glamorous stars were in for much more than a show when they took their seats at the 46th Academy Awards in 1974. As David Niven introduced Elizabeth Taylor to present the award for Best Picture, 34-year old Robert Opel cemented his place in history as he streaked across the stage flaunting his moustache, manly bits, and a very daring peace sign.

好萊塢最富魅力的明星能在1974年第46屆奧斯卡金像獎頒獎典禮上獲得一席之地可不單單隻憑一部作品。就當大衛·尼文公佈伊麗莎白·泰勒榮獲奧斯卡最佳影片獎提名時,34歲的羅伯特·歐貝爾肆無忌憚地裸奔衝上頒獎臺,炫耀起他的小鬍鬚和男子氣概,還大膽地比着V字形手勢。毫無疑問,這一舉動進一步加固了歐貝爾的歷史地位。

In a memorable sequence that would be voted a top Oscars moment by film fans in 2001, host David Niven regained the audience's full attention with his brilliant comeback, "Isn't it fascinating to think that probably the only laugh that man will ever get in his life is by stripping off and showing his shortcomings?"

精彩還在後頭,接下來發生的事在2001年被廣大影迷投選爲奧斯卡最難忘的一刻。主持人大衛·尼文用他傑出的應變能力成功地收回了觀衆們的所有注意:"一個男人一生當中也許是唯一一次引人發笑的機會竟得全靠脫衣揭短,這是不是太好玩了?"
