Terrifying truck photo revealed to be prank

可怕的卡车照片原来是恶作剧

Talk about a cliffhanger.

这是一个扣人心弦的故事。

Tennessee park officials alarmed social media users after sharing a terrifying Facebook photo of a truck parked precariously close to a cliff’s edge. Fortunately, everyone can rest easy because it was a prank all along.

田纳西州公园的管理人员在Facebook上分享了一张可怕的照片,照片上一辆卡车危险地停在悬崖边上,引起了社交媒体用户的警惕。幸运的是,每个人都可以放心,因为这从始至终都是一个恶作剧。

可怕的卡车照片原来是恶作剧

The hair-raising photo — posted by Fall Creek Falls State Park on Dec. 28 — depicts an “abandoned” pickup truck resting on an outcrop high above a gorge.

这张令人毛骨悚然的照片——由福尔克里克瀑布州立公园于12月28日发布——描绘了一辆“被遗弃的”小卡车停在峡谷上方的一块岩石上。

As it turns out, the nail-biting visual was an optical illusion — the truck was actually a toy. Subsequent photos show the miniature model next to life-sized cars in the attraction’s parking lot. The Facebook post reads, “It [the toy truck] will be in Ranger Sean’s patrol vehicle if the owner wants it back.”

事实证明,这是一种视觉错觉——卡车实际上是一个玩具。随后的照片显示,在该景点的停车场里,这个微型模型就在真人大小的汽车旁。Facebook上的帖子写道:“如果车主想要它,它(玩具卡车)就会在管理员肖恩的巡逻车里。”

Naturally, the vehicular “rickroll” was a hit with Facebook users, racking up more than 3,000 reactions and responses like, “You really had me going, kudos for such great imagination and prank!”

当然,这款名为“rickroll”的车在Facebook上大受欢迎,收到了3000多条回复,比如“你真让我着迷,真是太有想象力了,太搞笑了!”

“Hot Wheels commercial combined with national parks!!!” said another of the “mind-truckery.”

“摩天轮广告与国家公园相结合!!”另一个“思想卡车”说。

One commenter even posted a photo of a snowman at the same site — which was actually the stone railing along a hiking path and not a hundred-foot-high cliff as implied in the original pic.

一位评论者甚至在同一地点贴了一张雪人的照片——实际上是沿着一条徒步小径的石栏,而不是原照片中暗示的100英尺高的悬崖。

In the realm of visual gags, the truck troll trails behind this mischievous college student punking classmates with a scary costume for Halloween 2018.

在视觉效果上,卡车司机跟在这个淘气的大学生后面,他在2018年万圣节上穿着吓人的服装和同学们打闹。
