我们怎么都找不到黑猩猩
And we just can't find our chimpanzee.
时间一点点流逝
Time is ticking away,
马克的拍摄时间不多了
and Mark is running out of filming days.
现在我只需要一点好运气
At the moment, I just need some good luck.
我们一路走过艰难的道路才到了这里
We've come an awfully long way to get this sequence.
我们还剩下10到12天时间
We've got probably 10, 12 days left.
当前的工作很艰难
But it's hard work at the moment.
马克能做的只有坚持不懈
All Mark can do is persevere,
并期待有所突破
and hope for a break.
但并非所有的丛林生物都那么害羞
But not all the forest creatures are so shy.
在高高的树上
Perched high in his tree,
詹姆斯·奥尔德雷德正耐心守候大象们的出现
James Aldred is waiting patiently for the elephants to come in.
终于大象们出现了
At last, the elephants are here,
但他们的行为很异常
but they're behaving strangely.
他知道有点不对劲
He knows something's not quite right.
大象们显得焦躁不安
The elephants seem agitated.
他们只想摆脱你
They just want to get rid of you.
一头象开始用头撞树
One begins to thump the tree with its head.
詹姆斯别无选择只能尽力捱过攻击
James has no option but to weather the attack.
那只身体向前倾然后用头撞树
That's lean forward and keep head-butting,
不停地撞啊撞
keep head-butting, keep head-butting.
突然摄像机电源被切断
Suddenly, the cameras cut out.
詹姆斯陷入了完全的黑暗之中
And James is left in complete darkness.
搜寻了三个星期之后
After three weeks searching,
马克瘦了将近28磅
Mark has lost nearly two stone in weight,
但他没有放弃
but he hasn't given up.
他一秒钟都不敢放下摄像机
He can't afford to put down his camera for a second.
突然间向导发现了取食蜂蜜的黑猩猩
Suddenly, the guide spots the honey hunter.
就是现在
This is it.
她在哪儿
Where is she?
她在树上
She's inside the tree.
她冒着生命危险只是为了一点蜂蜜
Just for some honey, she's risking her life.
太神奇了
It's amazing.
拍摄结束后的好几天我都会情不自禁地笑
I think I just couldn't stop smiling for several days after filming.
我感到难以置信的宽慰
The relief was just unbelievable.
在摄像平台上詹姆斯度过了漫长的一晚
Back at the camera platform, James has had a long night.
超过4小时的时间里
For over four hours,
大象想要把他从树上摇下来
the elephant tried to shake him out of the tree.
早上巴彦喀来接我的时候我才下树
Got down this morning when the Bayaka came to collect me,
我去查看了摄像机
went to look at the camera,
大象把摄像机从树上扯了下来
and he'd pulled it out of the tree,
他还咬穿了电源线
and he'd chewed through the power cable.
他肯定被电到了一下
He must have gotten a bit of a shock,
虽然只有12伏特的电压不过...
I mean only 12 volts, but...
他罪有应得真的
Serves him right, quite honestly.
至少我们在他弄坏摄像机前拍到了图像
But at least we got a shot of him before he trashed the camera.
不幸中的万幸
Silver lining.
坎坷的开端之后
Despite this bumpy start,
大象们很快习惯了詹姆斯
the elephants soon got used to James,
詹姆斯也熟识了大象们
and James got used to the elephants.
在这里摄像肯定不容易
Filming here was never going to be easy,
但我们很快就能够
but we were soon able to
第一次揭示丛林象们的夜生活
reveal the night life of forest elephants like never before.
