紐約一男子在街頭狂剪自拍杆引網友熱議

Selfie sticks are everywhere - whether you love them or loathe them, chances are you won't go a day without seeing someone snapping themselves with the contraption.

不管你是喜歡還是厭惡，自拍杆已經隨處可見了，你可能每天都會看到用這個奇妙的小裝置進行自拍的行人。

But one man with a burning hatred of the phenomenon has taken matters into his own hands in extreme fashion.

但有一位男人對這種極端時髦的現象已經感到怒不可遏，他要把命運掌握在自己手裏。

Armed with a pair of shears, Buddy Bolton has been sneaking around the streets of New York decapitating selfie sticks, sending smartphones smashing to the ground.

巴迪·博爾頓手持一副大剪刀，潛伏在紐約街頭，對自拍杆進行“斬首”打擊，使得手機紛紛砸到了地上。

Footage shows the self-styled vigilante creeping up on unsuspecting tourists before cutting their selfie sticks in half and legging it.

根據一段視頻顯示，這位自稱義警的男人躡手躡腳地靠近毫無警戒的遊客，把自拍杆剪成兩段後迅速逃跑。

Some of his victims are left in shock to pick up the pieces of their destroyed property while others give chase.

有些受害人一臉震驚，當其他人奮起追趕犯人時，他們還在默默撿起他們被破壞的物品的碎片。

Bolton is actually a stand-up comedian who posted a video of the prank to YouTube - where is has received mixed reviews.

事實上，博爾頓是一名獨角滑稽秀演員，他在YouTube上分享惡作劇視頻，收到的評價褒貶不一。

Some viewers hailed the stunt as a "masterpiece" while others who were less than impressed branded him a "disgusting person".

一些觀看者將這種惡作劇稱爲“偉大的作品”，然而另一些人並不喜歡這樣的作品，認爲他是個“噁心的人”。

Bolton told DNAinfo: "We thought it was good-hearted. It wasn't our intention to be really mean."

博爾頓在接受DNAinfo採訪時表示：“我們認爲這是出於一種好意。我們的目的不是要真的表現得很刻薄。”
