If I had the next one, I swear I could fly. Submarine: the deep blue sea深蓝色海洋里的潜水艇The world of deep-sea exploration enchants many people as children. And when they can play it out on their own as adults, many do. V:企业家理查•布兰森爵士就是一位出名的潜艇主人。他曾计划让游客乘坐潜水艇游览太平洋的马里亚纳海沟,还将“内克尔仙女号” 潜水艇留在了他的私人岛屿上。电影导演詹姆士•卡梅隆把他的潜艇“深海挑战者号”捐给了科研小组。L: Triton Submarines based in Florida specialises in small personal luxury submarines, which run on high-tech batteries and are custom built for each client. The Triton 3300/3 is the company's most popular model, according to Harley O'Neill, Triton's manager of sales and marketing, and is used for recreational diving, exploration, research endeavours and filming. It fits three people and can travel to a depth of 1,006m (3,300ft, hence the name).V: "It used to be helicopters and now it's submarines," O'Neill said. "Now everyone is asking if you have one." One prerequisite for owning the sub? A superyacht for the docking station, says O'Neill.L: Value, have you ever dreamed of flying?V: Yeah, of course, I believe everybody has dreamed of flying though I have acrophpbia. So the next toy is for flying?L: Yep, and it's name is Hydro Powered Jetovator喷水飞行器Blame Peter Pan but even as grown-ups, many of us still wish we could fly. As kids, we ran down the garden flapping our arms or leapt from a low tree branch in a bid to take off, sometimes even bruising or breaking a limb in the process. In adulthood, achieving that free-flying feeling is a must for some adrenaline-seekers, whether through means like skydiving or base jumping.V: But take heart. You don't need a plane or bridge to fly. Hammacher Schlemmer's Hydro Powered Jetovator, a flying jet-ski like water craft, lets riders shoot 7.6m (25ft) into the air and corkscrew, back flip and barrel roll mid-air, while hovering above the water. Riders can even plunge a little over 3m (10ft) below the water, while still seated on the craft, for a quick undersea view.L:你还记得当年我们看过的四驱兄弟吗?V:恩,讲的是两个玩具赛车手兄弟的故事。当时我还买过一个小赛车呢。L: 有钱人可比我们更会玩。They just level up Off to the racesThese aren't the matchbox cars and electric toy racetracks most kids play with. The custom raceways from Slot Mods USA are painstakingly handcrafted to a client's specifications, including sections that precisely replicate real-life tracks whether that be the Le Mans circuit or the Monaco Grand Prix, said David Beattie, the company's founder and president.V:The tracks he builds often are anywhere between 3.7m to 9m (12ft to 30ft) long and 3m to 6m (10ft to 20ft) wide and can include structures such as grandstands and features including skid marks airbrushed on the tracks. Depending on the size, scope and detail of the track, they can take anywhere between three to six months to build.L:Slot Mods赛道的拥有者包括很多汽车爱好者,他们的车库里收藏着各种豪华轿车。著名车手博比•拉哈尔(Bobby Rahal)也是Slot Mods赛道的主人。贝迪目前正在为美国电视名人杰伊•莱诺(Jay Leno)制作赛道。这些客户的一个共同点,就是他们对赛车永恒的爱。“收到我们的赛道模型,他们就像圣诞节早上的孩子,收到了让他们重返童年的旅行车票。”V: Leo,明明都是好玩的玩具,为什么我这么悲伤呢?L: 那是因为我们没有钱啊。V: 说多了都是泪啊,马上就考试了,我还是去看书吧!L: So let's end up here today.V: 感谢吴晓鹏的精彩制作,see you next weekL: Bye bye!
