文字稿

So, it is important to stay in control. Learn to accept the cold. I feel so refreshed and energetic.

重要的是讓一切盡在掌控之內。學會接受寒冷。我感覺精神煥發，充滿活力。

My name is Alan Thong – better known as the ‘Asian Iceman’.

我的名字叫湯文亮（Alan Thong），更廣為人知的名字是 “亞洲冰人”。

When I was in the Arctic wilderness, the connection with nature is irreplaceable. The energy there is completely different – so pure and so awakening.

當我在北極荒野中的時候，我與大自然結合的感覺是獨一無二的。那裡的能量完全不同——如此純凈，如此讓人覺醒。

Because we live in a tropical country – so we don’t have the cold we need. So hence, I order the ice from the ice man! And in total we will have 120 kilo[s] of ice inside, and the temperature of the water will go down to about zero or maybe negative one.

因為我們生活在熱帶國傢，所以我們體會不到寒冷。所以，我從賣冰的人那裡買冰。這裡總共有 120 公斤的冰，水溫會降到零度或零下一度。

[The] first 20-30 seconds would be the most difficult. You might want to run out, jump out, just scream and so on. It’s very likely that you feel the sharpness – the stabbing into your skin.

一開始的 20 到 30 秒最艱難。你可能想從這裡跑出去，跳出去，尖叫等等。你很可能會感到刺痛，刺進你的皮膚。

But once you’re in there, you can feel the sensations of … we call it a natural high. I usually spend up to twenty minutes in the ice bath.

但隻要你進入其中，你就能感到一種我們稱之為自然亢奮的感覺。我通常在冰浴裡最多呆 20 分鐘。

Your mind will, in fact, gain a certain clarity and strength in a way that you’ve never experienced before. Mental strength, mental control – this is real.

事實上，你的頭腦會獲得一種清晰感和力量，這是從其它地方無法獲得的。精神力量，心裡控制——這是真實存在的。
