俄羅斯一位年僅20歲的國際象棋大師玩跑酷不幸喪命

Russian chess champion Yuri Yeliseyev, 20, has died after falling from the balcony of a Moscow apartment block when his parkour practice went wrong.

現年20歲的俄羅斯國際象棋冠軍尤里·埃利塞夫在練習跑酷時出現差錯，從莫斯科公寓的陽臺上掉了下去。

The chess grandmaster fell from the 12th floor of the apartment last Saturday and died before an ambulance arrived.

這位國際象棋大師是在上週六從12層的公寓陽臺上墜落的，救護車沒到就已經身亡。

A fan of parkour, a sport involving climbing up and leaping from walls, buildings and roofs, Yeliseyev was seen performing stunts over the summer by a neighbour, the Life channel reported.

據《生活頻道》報道，尤里·埃利塞夫是跑酷迷，這項運動包括攀爬牆面、建築和屋頂，然後再跳下來，夏天時，一名鄰居就曾看到埃利塞夫在表演絕技。

Fellow grandmaster Daniil Dubov said on social media that Yeliseyev had been trying to climb from a window to a nearby balcony when he slipped.

他的夥伴、國際象棋大師丹尼爾·杜波夫在社交媒體上表示，當耶利塞耶夫滑落時，他一直試圖從窗口爬到附近的陽臺。

His flatmate, Shamil Arslanov told Ren TV that "Yuri loved extreme things" and had climbed between the window and the balcony in the past.

他的舍友沙米爾告訴Ren TV，埃利塞夫熱愛“極限事物”，過去就曾在窗戶和陽臺間攀爬。

Yeliseyev became a grandmaster in 2013 and clinched this year's Moscow Open. He is ranked 212th by the World Chess Federation.

2013年，埃利塞夫被授予“象棋大師”稱號，並且打入今年的莫斯科公開賽。在世界象棋聯盟中排名第212位。
