AZUZ: This is one of the more relaxing Guinness World Records we’ve show you. All participants have to do really is lie down on a mattress. It`s the largest human mattress dominoes record. Twelve hundred people, 1,200 mattresses and 13 1/2 minutes of folks claiming a title by laying their sleepy heads.

这是我们向您展示的最放松的吉尼斯世界纪录之一。所有参与者所要做的就是躺在床垫上。这是最大的人体床垫多米诺骨牌记录。1200人参加,1200张床垫,随着工作人员将第一张“人体骨牌”推倒后,余下的“人肉床垫”相继倒下,用时13.5分钟。

An appliance rental company set it all up in a 70,000 square foot conference center. The mattresses will be donated to charities.

此次活动是由一套设备租赁公司举行,地点位于一座近70000平方英尺的会议中心。这些床垫将捐赠给慈善机构。

Maybe setting a world record isn’t for everyone, but people were falling all over themselves for this one. They all had a soft place to land. They easily put the record to bed after toppling the old one. There was just domi-no way they`d fail.

也许不是所有人都创造了一项世界纪录,但是所有人都为了这项纪录相继倒下。他们都会倒在一个柔软的地方,他们通过相继倒在前面的床垫上轻松的创下纪录。这只是以多米诺骨牌的方式,他们不会失败。

I`m Carl Azuz, and I`m nodding off. We hope you`ll wake up to a new day of CNN STUDENT NEWS tomorrow. Sleep on it.
