Extreme Sports

Hello.

I'm Marina Santee. And I'm Elizabeth Lickiss. Welcome to Spotlight. This programme uses a special English method of broadcasting. It is easier for people to understand, no matter where in the world they live.

Today's Spotlight takes us into a world of danger and high risk - the world of Extreme Sports. Jane and Julian stand on the edge of a huge mountain. Far below them they can see a river. A number of people gather behind the safety barrier. The atmosphere is tense. Jane and Julian are tied to each other. Their ankles are attached to a strong piece of rubber rope. In a few seconds time, they will both jump. The rope is their survival line. It attaches them to the bridge they are standing on. The rope is designed to spring them back up just before they hit the rocks and river below. The rope will pull them away from danger just in time. Jane and Julian know that they are putting their lives at risk. But they are not afraid. They have made many jumps like this before. But today's jump is very special. Before the couple jump, they make some very special promises to each other. Friends and family watch from behind the safety barrier. They watch as Jane and Julian make their promises of marriage! Yes, they decided to get married doing what they loved best - bungee jumping.

Jane and Julian love bungee jumping! But how did this unusual sport originate? Who performed the first bungee jump? Well there are a number of different stories. But most bungee jumpers agree on the place of origin. They say that the sport comes from the South Pacific - from a tribe on Pentecost Island.

The people of this South Pacific tribe tell each other this story. A woman was running away from her husband. Her husband used to beat her. She was afraid of him. One time, the woman climbed a tall tree to escape from him. She then tied a strong plant root - a vine - to her ankles. Her husband followed her into the tree. He tried to get hold of her. But she jumped out of the tree. Her husband lost his balance and fell. The strong plant root saved the woman - it stopped her from falling to the ground. It worked like a spring and pulled her back up. Her husband however, was killed. Ever since this event, men of the island have enjoyed the sport of bungee jumping. Stories say that men started bungee jumping to honour the courage of the woman. Whatever the reason - bungee jumping became a popular sport on the island.

Today, many people enjoy bungee jumping. People jump from bridges, balloons and helicopters. Some bungee jumpers have even performed jumps of over four hundred and fifty metres. New bungee jump competitions require jumpers to perform difficult turns in the air. Some jumpers even try to get hold of objects on the ground. They have to do this before the rubber rope pulls them back into the air again. This is difficult and dangerous. Experts in the sport need to tie the rope to the exact length needed. They have to consider the weight of the jumper. They have to consider the distance of the fall. These measurements need to be exact. A mistake of a few millimetres can result in serious injury - or death!

People call bungee jumping an 'extreme sport.' Extreme sports are designed to push people to the very limits of their abilities. Joe Tomlinson has written a book about the subject. It is called "The Ultimate Encyclopaedia of Extreme Sports". It talks about many different kinds of sports. But they all have one thing in common. The sports in the book are all very dangerous.

Try this. Do not take a breath in, for one minute! Liz will do it with you. Ready Elizabeth?

Go. I will tell you when the minute is up. While you do this, imagine diving deep into the ocean. You do not have an air tank! This is what the extreme sport of freediving involves. Normal divers carry air tanks on their backs when they dive. The only air that freedivers carry is the air in their lungs.

Some freedivers have travelled over one hundred metres down into the oceans. Anyone who does this needs a good set of lungs! Ok Liz that is one minute. You can breathe now! Not easy was it? But just imagine freedivers need to be able to hold their breath for minutes!

There are different kinds of freediving. The most extreme kind of diving is called 'absolute' diving. In this, the divers add weight to their bodies on the trip down. This makes them sink faster. Some divers have reached speeds of four metres a second! To return to the surface, divers use a lifting aid - such as a blow up container. Some absolute divers have managed to travel more than one hundred and twenty metres deep!

To do this, they learn special breathing methods. They train their lungs to hold air for long periods of time. They also have to limit their movement. Each move requires oxygen - and there is clearly a limited supply!

Freedivers needs great inner strength and control. A failed attempt can result in death. The divers have to be fully prepared mentally and physically. This is true for all lovers of extreme sports. As the name suggests, extreme sports mean extreme risks. So what makes people want to risk their lives in such a way?

Bungee jumpers, Jane and Julian say that pushing their human limits makes them feel more alive. Scientists say that this could be because of the way the chemical adrenaline works in the body. The body releases adrenaline into the blood. It does this when people are in danger. It also releases adrenaline when people perform extreme physical activity. Adrenaline makes people feel full of energy. Scientists believe that some people are addicted to the feeling that adrenaline gives. In Joe Tomlinson's book on Extreme Sports, he said, 'Extreme sports are about the individual. They are about the satisfaction of pushing yourself to your human limits. It is about challenging yourself to even greater things. Adrenaline is a powerful chemical. When it releases into the body the feeling is wonderful. Extreme sports have a life confirming quality about them. ' Do you agree with Joe's comments? What makes you feel really alive? Would jumping from the Empire state building help? Or how about walking across Niagara Falls on a thin piece of wire? Are these your ideas of fun? In our next programme in this series we will take extreme sports to the very limits. Join us next time to hear Extreme Sports, part two.

Ее муж потерял равновесие и упал. The strong plant root saved the woman - it stopped her from falling to the ground. A forte raiz da planta salvou a mulher - impediu-a de cair no chão. Прочный корень растения спас женщину - он не дал ей упасть на землю. It worked like a spring and pulled her back up. Fungovalo to jako pružina a vytáhlo ji zpět nahoru. Funcionou como uma mola e puxou-a de volta para cima. Он сработал как пружина и подтянул ее к себе. Her husband however, was killed. ||однако|| Její manžel však zahynul. No entanto, o seu marido foi morto. Однако ее муж был убит. Ever since this event, men of the island have enjoyed the sport of bungee jumping. Od té doby, co se tento incident stal, muži na ostrově si užívají sport bungee jumpingu. Desde este acontecimento, os homens da ilha têm apreciado o desporto do bungee jumping. С тех пор мужчины острова с удовольствием занимаются банджи-джампингом.

Some jumpers even try to get hold of objects on the ground. Někteří skokani dokonce zkoušejí chytit předměty na zemi. Alguns saltadores tentam mesmo agarrar-se a objectos no chão. Некоторые прыгуны даже пытаются ухватиться за предметы на земле. They have to do this before the rubber rope pulls them back into the air again. |||||||||потянет|||||| Musí to udělat dříve, než je pryžová lano opět stáhne do vzduchu.

Extreme sports are designed to push people to the very limits of their abilities. |||||||||||||способностей Extrémní sporty jsou navrženy tak, aby lidi tlačily na samé hranice jejich schopností. Экстремальные виды спорта предназначены для того, чтобы толкать людей до пределов их возможностей. Joe Tomlinson has written a book about the subject. |Томлинсон||||||| Joe Tomlinson napsal knihu na toto téma. Joe Tomlinson escreveu um livro sobre o assunto. Джо Томлинсон написал книгу на эту тему. It is called "The Ultimate Encyclopaedia of Extreme Sports". ||||||||Sporty ||||Ультимативная|энциклопедия||| Je nazvána "Ultimátní encyklopedie extrémních sportů". Она называется "Ультимативная энциклопедия экстремальных видов спорта". It talks about many different kinds of sports. Она рассказывает о многих различных видах спорта. But they all have one thing in common. Mas todos eles têm uma coisa em comum. Но у них есть одна общая черта. The sports in the book are all very dangerous. Os desportos referidos no livro são todos muito perigosos.

Try this. Попробуйте это. Do not take a breath in, for one minute! ||nedýchejte|||||| Nedýchejte po dobu jedné minuty! Não inspirem durante um minuto! Не делайте ни единого вдоха в течение минуты! Liz will do it with you. Liz to udělá s vámi. A Liz fá-lo-á contigo. Лиз сделает это вместе с вами. Ready Elizabeth? Jste připravená, Elizabeth?

Go. I will tell you when the minute is up. Eu digo-vos quando o minuto acabar. While you do this, imagine diving deep into the ocean. |||||погружение|||| Пока вы это делаете, представьте, что погружаетесь в глубины океана. You do not have an air tank! ||||||баллон Não tem um depósito de ar! У вас нет воздушного баллона! This is what the extreme sport of freediving involves. |||||||Toto je, o čem je extrémní sport freedivingu.| |||||||фридайвинг| É isto que envolve o desporto radical do mergulho livre. Именно в этом заключается экстремальный вид спорта - фридайвинг. Normal divers carry air tanks on their backs when they dive. |||||||спинах|||погружаются Os mergulhadores normais transportam botijas de ar às costas quando mergulham. The only air that freedivers carry is the air in their lungs. ||||freediveři||||||| ||||фридайверы||||||| O único ar que os mergulhadores livres transportam é o ar dos seus pulmões. Единственный воздух, который несут фридайверы, - это воздух в их легких.

Some freedivers have travelled over one hundred metres down into the oceans. |Někteří freediveři se ponořili do hloubky přes sto metrů.|||||||||| |||||||||||океаны Alguns mergulhadores livres chegaram a descer mais de cem metros nos oceanos. Некоторые фридайверы спускались в океан на глубину более ста метров. Anyone who does this needs a good set of lungs! Qualquer pessoa que faça isto precisa de ter uns bons pulmões! Любому, кто так поступает, нужны хорошие легкие! Ok Liz that is one minute. You can breathe now! Not easy was it? Não foi fácil, pois não? Нелегко, правда? But just imagine freedivers need to be able to hold their breath for minutes! Mas imaginem que os praticantes de mergulho livre têm de ser capazes de suster a respiração durante minutos! Но только представьте, что фридайверы должны уметь задерживать дыхание на несколько минут!

There are different kinds of freediving. Existují||||| Existem diferentes tipos de mergulho livre. Существуют различные виды фридайвинга. The most extreme kind of diving is called 'absolute' diving. ||||||||абсолютное| O tipo de mergulho mais extremo é o chamado mergulho "absoluto". Самый экстремальный вид дайвинга называется "абсолютным". In this, the divers add weight to their bodies on the trip down. Neste caso, os mergulhadores acrescentam peso ao seu corpo durante a descida. При этом дайверы увеличивают вес своего тела во время спуска. This makes them sink faster. Isto faz com que se afundem mais depressa. Из-за этого они быстрее тонут. Bu da daha hızlı batmalarını sağlar. Some divers have reached speeds of four metres a second! Alguns mergulhadores atingiram velocidades de quatro metros por segundo! Некоторые дайверы развивали скорость до четырех метров в секунду! To return to the surface, divers use a lifting aid - such as a blow up container. |||||||nafukovací nádoba||||||nafouknutý|| |||||||||устройство|||||| Aby se potápěči dostali zpět na hladinu, používají zdvihací pomoc - například nafukovací kontejner. Para regressar à superfície, os mergulhadores utilizam um auxiliar de elevação - como um contentor insuflável. Чтобы вернуться на поверхность, водолазы используют подъемное устройство - например, надувной контейнер. Some absolute divers have managed to travel more than one hundred and twenty metres deep! ||||dokázali|||||||||| Někteří zkušení potápěči dokázali cestovat více než sto dvacet metrů hluboko! Alguns mergulhadores absolutos conseguiram viajar a mais de cento e vinte metros de profundidade! Некоторым абсолютным дайверам удавалось преодолеть глубину более ста двадцати метров!

To do this, they learn special breathing methods. K tomu se učí zvláštní dýchací metody. Para o efeito, aprendem métodos especiais de respiração. Для этого они осваивают специальные методы дыхания. They train their lungs to hold air for long periods of time. |||||||||периодов|| Treinam os pulmões para reter o ar durante longos períodos de tempo. Они тренируют свои легкие, чтобы удерживать воздух в течение длительного времени. They also have to limit their movement. ||||omezit|| Musí také omezit svůj pohyb. Têm também de limitar os seus movimentos. Им также придется ограничить свое передвижение. Each move requires oxygen - and there is clearly a limited supply! |||||||zjevně||| |||||||||ограниченный| Každý pohyb vyžaduje kyslík - a je zřejmé, že zdroj je omezený! Cada movimento requer oxigénio - e a oferta é claramente limitada! Каждое движение требует кислорода - и его явно ограниченное количество!

Freedivers needs great inner strength and control. |||vnitřní||| |||внутренней||| Freediver potřebuje velkou vnitřní sílu a kontrolu. Os mergulhadores livres necessitam de grande força interior e controlo. Фридайверы нуждаются в великой внутренней силе и контроле. A failed attempt can result in death. |neúspěšný pokus|||výsledek|| محاولة فاشلة يمكن أن تؤدي إلى الموت. Uma tentativa falhada pode resultar em morte. Неудачная попытка может привести к смерти. The divers have to be fully prepared mentally and physically. |||||полностью||||физически Os mergulhadores têm de estar totalmente preparados mental e fisicamente. Дайверы должны быть полностью готовы морально и физически. This is true for all lovers of extreme sports. Isto é válido para todos os amantes dos desportos radicais. Это касается всех любителей экстремальных видов спорта. As the name suggests, extreme sports mean extreme risks. |||naznačuje||||| ||||||||риски Como o nome indica, os desportos radicais implicam riscos extremos. Как следует из названия, экстремальные виды спорта означают экстремальные риски. So what makes people want to risk their lives in such a way? ||||||危険にさらす|||||| Então, o que é que leva as pessoas a arriscarem as suas vidas desta forma? Так что же заставляет людей рисковать своей жизнью таким образом?

Bungee jumpers, Jane and Julian say that pushing their human limits makes them feel more alive. Jane e Julian, saltadores de bungee jumpers, dizem que ultrapassar os seus limites humanos os faz sentir mais vivos. Прыгающие с тарзанки, Джейн и Джулиан говорят, что преодоление своих человеческих пределов заставляет их чувствовать себя более живыми. Scientists say that this could be because of the way the chemical adrenaline works in the body. Os cientistas dizem que isto pode dever-se à forma como a adrenalina química actua no corpo. Ученые говорят, что это может быть связано с тем, как действует химическое вещество адреналин в организме. The body releases adrenaline into the blood. ||uvolňuje|||| ||выделяет|||| O corpo liberta adrenalina no sangue. It does this when people are in danger. Он делает это, когда людям угрожает опасность. It also releases adrenaline when people perform extreme physical activity. ||||||provádějí||| Também liberta adrenalina quando as pessoas realizam uma atividade física extrema. Он также высвобождает адреналин, когда люди выполняют экстремальные физические нагрузки. Adrenaline makes people feel full of energy. Адреналин заставляет людей чувствовать себя полными энергии. Scientists believe that some people are addicted to the feeling that adrenaline gives. Os cientistas acreditam que algumas pessoas são viciadas na sensação que a adrenalina proporciona. Ученые считают, что некоторые люди зависимы от ощущения, которое дает адреналин. In Joe Tomlinson's book on Extreme Sports, he said, ||Томлинсона|||||| No livro de Joe Tomlinson sobre desportos radicais, ele diz, 'Extreme sports are about the individual.
