新西蘭男子獲驚喜 家中水管流啤酒

It's a dream come true for many men. Imagine coming home from a hard day's work to find every tap in your house had been re-plumbed to flow with chilled lager.
想象在辛苦工作一天回家之後，發現所有水龍頭裏流出的都是冰鎮啤酒，許多男性對這種生活都夢寐以求。

That's exactly what happened to one New Zealand man who fell victim to the ultimate in practical jokes, filmed by his friends on a battery of cameras hidden throughout his home. With the help of a local brewery the group of pals carried out the elaborate operation after their friend, identified only as Russ, went out.
而這一幕就在一名新西蘭男子的家中變成了現實，他也成了這次終極惡搞事件的當事人。當這名被稱爲羅塞的男子離家外出時，他的一幫朋友在當地啤酒商的幫助下完成了這次完美行動。他們還在羅塞家裏藏了許多攝像頭，整個事件都被拍攝下來。

Video of the prank, which is to be used as part of a viral advertising campaign, shows the men lying in wait for Russ to drive off, then crawling beneath his house to connect his mains water supply to beer kegs.
惡搞錄像是廣告宣傳活動的一部分，現在該廣告已經走紅網絡。從錄像中我們看到，一羣人等待羅塞開車離家，之後爬到房子的地底結構中，將主水管管道同啤酒桶相連接。

After testing the new supply, the gang rig their friend's entire home with CCTV surveillance cameras to capture his reaction to the practical joke.
測試新裝置連接成功後，這羣人在朋友家中各個角落都安上了監控攝像頭，用來記錄他被惡搞時的反應。

They then lie in wait nearby to watch as Russ arrives home with his partner and their dog. She turns on the tap and watches in surprise as the booze flows from the tap.
之後他們在羅塞家附近埋伏待陣，看他和同伴帶着狗回到家中。同伴打開水龍頭後驚奇地望着啤酒從水管中汩汩流出。

Then Russ tests out the supply. 'What the hell?' he exclaims, inspecting the stream of alcoholic beverage with a sniff. 'It looks like cold beer too,' he says to his partner.
接着羅塞嚐了嚐流出來的液體。“什麼東西？”他叫道，一邊檢查流出來的酒精飲料，一邊還把鼻子湊過去聞了聞。之後對同伴說：“看起來好像也是冰鎮啤酒。”

The bewildered homeowner gets into his overalls to crawl beneath his house to investigate where, monitored by his buddies on CCTV, he discovers the ruse and laughs.
這位困惑的房主換上工作裝，爬到房子底部一探究竟，朋友們從監視器裏看到，羅塞發現了他們的詭計，大笑起來。

A spokesman for New Zealand brewer Tui told Ninemsn that the video was a collaboration with an enterprising group of friends.
新西蘭釀酒廠Tui 發言人接受Ninemsn採訪時說，這段錄像是與一羣富有進取心的朋友合作的結果。

'It was an idea that was put up by Tui and they knew friends of people that worked at Tui,' he said. 'They're all legit mates and they are constantly playing pranks on each other so it was a match made in heaven.'
發言人說：“這個點子是Tui想到的，他們知道有很多人都在Tui工作。這些傢伙都非常遵紀守法，不過時不時會互相開點小玩笑，所以這個創意簡直就是天作之合。”

He added that no-one was paid to take part in the film. You can watch the full video of the prank on YouTube, where it has already been viewed more than 300,000 times.
他還說參與錄製的人都是自願無償工作的。現在完整錄像已經上傳到YouTube，點擊量超過30萬次。
