It was anything but a quiet meal for a group of tourists who stopped to have a picnic on a glacier in Iceland, only to have their vantage point break off and float away.
一群游客只是想在冰島的某處冰川上野餐而已,結(jié)果他們所處位置的冰川斷裂開來,帶著他們漂走了。

The four Americans had stopped for a Sunday dinner at the Fjallsárlón glacial lagoon in East Iceland over the weekend, setting up a table and chairs for their feast.
上周六晚上,四位美國游客在冰島東部的Fjallsárlón冰湖過周末,他們在冰川上支起桌子放好椅子準備吃晚餐。

But suddenly, a gust of wind caused the ice floe they were sitting on to break off and drift out into the water. One of the tourists was able to scramble off the massive piece of ice and called 112 for help.
但突然,一股強風襲來造成他們所在的冰川斷裂朝水中漂去。其中一名游客及時爬到了另一塊大浮冰上,打了112(歐盟國家的報警電話)求救。

When they were found by first responders, they were about 32 feet off the shore, according to Iceland Review. The tourists were not identified.
根據(jù)冰島評論網(wǎng)站的報道,當?shù)谝慌本热藛T趕來時,他們已經(jīng)漂離到離岸邊32英尺開外的地方了。

A photo from the scene shows the three tourists sitting calmly in the chairs before they were saved. After the daring rescue, the first responders took a lighthearted approach to the tourists' predicament.
現(xiàn)場的一張照片可以看到,三名游客在獲救前冷靜地坐在椅子上。在奮勇前去營救后,急救人員看到這些游客的窘境也都忍俊不禁。


'When we arrived it was quite comical to see them sitting on chairs and with a table on an iceberg,' Páll Sigureur Vignisson of the Hornafj?reur rescue team, told Iceland Review. He added: 'Yes, the dinner was over.'
來自Hornafj?reur救援隊的Páll對《冰島評論》的記者表示:“當我們到達時,看到他們圍坐在冰川上的桌子旁椅子上,樣子真的挺喜感的?!?他還補充說道:“對,晚餐結(jié)束啦?!?

When pressed by the paper to reveal what it was the tourists had been eating, Páll said that he was too busy passing over lifejackets to them to notice.
在被記者問及游客們當時吃的是東西時,Páll表示當時忙著給他們遞救生衣,沒注意這些細節(jié)。

In an interview with RúV, he took a more serious tone. Páll said: 'They could have been in danger. We never know how ice will behave, if it rolls over and when - we just don’t know.'
而在接受 RúV電視臺采訪時,他的態(tài)度嚴肅多了。他表示:“游客們這樣的行為還是挺危險的。我們不知道浮冰會怎么變化,如果冰塊翻過來了,那后果真的不堪設想啊?!?/div>
