For the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet, Anders Fjellberg investigated the story of "The Wetsuitman," along with his co-author, photographer Tomm Christiansen.

Why you should listen
In June and July 2015, Norwegian journalist Anders Fjellberg published a harrowing two-part investigation in Magasinet, the weekend magazine of daily newspaper Dagbladet, published in Oslo. Co-authored with photographer Tomm Christiansen, “The Wetsuitman” traced the origin of two dead bodies washed ashore in Norway and the Netherlands wearing wetsuits, identifying them as Syrian asylum seekers who had seemingly tried the inconceivable: swimming their way into the United Kingdom from the beach of Calais, France. Fjellberg has been a reporter since 2010. “The Wetsuitman” has been reprinted in newspapers across Europe.

它就在挪威的最西边。
00:23
And on January一月 2 this year,
3
11320
2416
在今年的9月2日,
00:25
an elderly老年 guy who lives生活 in the village,
4
13760
2216
一位住在这个村里的长者
00:28
he went out to see what was cast ashore岸上
5
16000
2896
去看了在最近的一次风暴之后
00:30
during a recent最近 storm风暴.
6
18920
1600
有什么东西被冲上岸了。
00:34
And on a patch补丁 of grass
right next下一个 to the water's水的 edge边缘,
7
22080
3216
就在水边的一片草地上,
00:37
he found发现 a wetsuit潜水衣.
8
25320
2000
他发现了一身潜水服。
00:39
It was grey灰色 and black黑色,
and he thought it looked看着 cheap低廉.
9
27920
3400
是黑灰色的,
而且他觉得看起来挺便宜的。
00:44
Out of each leg of the wetsuit潜水衣
10
32240
2056
在潜水服每条裤腿的外侧
00:46
there were sticking症结 two white白色 bones骨头.
11
34320
3000
都粘着两根白色的骨头。
00:50
It was clearly明确地 the remains遗迹
of a human人的 being存在.
12
38120
2200
很显然,那是
一个人的残骸。
00:54
And usually平时, in Norway挪威,
dead people are identified确定 quickly很快.
13
42160
3136
在挪威,通常死者很快就可以确定身份。
00:57
So the police警察 started开始 searching搜索
14
45320
1536
警方就在当地区域
00:58
through通过 missing失踪 reports报告
from the local本地 area,
15
46880
2096
根据来自当地的失踪报告,国家的失踪报告
01:01
national国民 missing失踪 reports报告,
16
49000
1216
展开了调查,
01:02
and looked看着 for accidents事故
with a possible可能 connection连接.
17
50240
2456
寻找一些可能会
有所关联的事故。
01:04
They found发现 nothing.
18
52720
1200
然而他们一无所获。
01:06
So they ran a DNA脱氧核糖核酸 profile轮廓,
19
54920
1496
所以他们就进行了DNA检测,
01:08
and they started开始 searching搜索
internationally国际 through通过 Interpol国际刑警组织.
20
56440
3136
他们还通过国际刑警组织开始了
全球范围内的调查。
01:11
Nothing.
21
59600
1200
还是什么都查不到。
01:14
This was a person
that nobody没有人 seemed似乎 to be missing失踪.
22
62240
3520
这个失踪的人好像是
根本就不存在一样。
01:18
It was an invisible无形 life
heading标题 for a nameless无名 grave.
23
66520
3640
好像是一个无形的生命
走进了一座无名的坟墓。
01:24
But then, after a month,
24
72000
1736
但是,在一个月之后,
01:25
the police警察 in Norway挪威 got a message信息
from the police警察 in the Netherlands荷兰.
25
73760
4296
挪威警方接到了
荷兰警方的通知。
01:30
A couple一对 of months个月 earlier,
they had found发现 a body身体,
26
78080
2616
在几个月前,
荷兰警方发现了一具尸体,
01:32
in an identical相同 wetsuit潜水衣,
and they had no idea理念 who this person was.
27
80720
4280
穿着完全相同的潜水服,
他们也查不出来那个人是谁。
01:37
But the police警察 in the Netherlands荷兰
managed管理 to trace跟踪 the wetsuit潜水衣
28
85791
2905
但荷兰警方试着去通过
缝在潜水服里面的一个无线射频芯片
01:40
by an RFIDRFID chip芯片 that was sewn缝制 in the suit适合.
29
88720
3376
来追踪这身衣服。
01:44
So they were then able能够 to tell
30
92120
2176
然后他们就发现了
01:46
that both wetsuits潜水服 were bought
by the same相同 customer顾客 at the same相同 time,
31
94320
5336
这两身潜水服都是由同一个人,
在同一时间买下的,
01:51
October十月 7, 2014,
32
99680
2456
时间是2014年10月7日,
01:54
in the French法国 city of Calais加莱
by the English英语 Channel渠道.
33
102160
2600
地点是在英吉利海峡边
一个叫做加来的法国城市。
01:57
But this was all
they were able能够 to figure数字 out.
34
105760
3176
但是这也是他们
能找出的所有的线索了。
02:00
The customer顾客 paid支付 cash现金.
35
108960
1656
那个人是用现金买的。
02:02
There was no surveillance监控
footage镜头 from the shop.
36
110640
2616
商店里没有监控录像。
02:05
So it became成为 a cold case案件.
37
113280
1480
这就变成了一宗悬案。
02:07
We heard听说 this story故事,
38
115840
1216
听说了这个故事后,
02:09
and it triggered触发 me and my colleague同事,
photographer摄影师 Tomm人Tomm Christiansen克里斯琴森,
39
117080
3239
我和我的同事,摄影师 Tomm Christiansen
都被深深地吸引了,
02:12
and we of course课程 had the obvious明显 question:
who were these people?
40
120343
3073
当然我们也怀有很显然的疑问:
这些人是谁啊?
02:15
At the time, I'd barely仅仅
heard听说 about Calais加莱,
41
123440
2000
那时,我根本就
没怎么听说过加来,
02:17
but it took about two
or three seconds to figure数字 out
42
125464
2831
但只过了两三秒钟
我就想起来了
02:20
Calais加莱 is basically基本上 known已知 for two things.
43
128320
2936
加来基本上只有两样东西很出名。
02:23
It's the spot in continental大陆 Europe欧洲
closest最近的 to Britain英国,
44
131280
2816
它是欧洲大陆上
最靠近英国的地点;
02:26
and a lot of migrants移民 and refugees难民
are staying in this camp
45
134120
3536
有很多的移民和难民
都住在这的难民营里,
02:29
and are trying desperately拼命
to cross交叉 over to Britain英国.
46
137680
3216
而且他们每时每刻都拼命地想
穿越海峡去英国。
02:32
And right there was a plausible似是而非 theory理论
about the identity身分 of the two people,
47
140920
4936
那时关于那两个人的身份
产生了一种比较说得通的猜测的,
02:37
and the police警察 made制作 this theory理论 as well.
48
145880
2376
警方也得出了这个猜测。
02:40
Because if you or I or anybody任何人 else其他
with a firm公司 connection连接 to Europe欧洲
49
148280
3191
因为如果是你,或者我,或者任何一个
在欧洲是土生土长的人,
02:43
goes missing失踪 off the coast of France法国,
people would just know.
50
151495
3201
在法国的海岸边失踪了,
那么人们都会知道的。
02:46
Your friends朋友 or family家庭
would report报告 you missing失踪,
51
154720
2256
你的朋友或你的家人
肯定会报警说你失踪了,
02:49
the police警察 would come search搜索 for you,
the media媒体 would know,
52
157000
2776
警方就会开始搜寻你,
媒体也会知晓,
02:51
and there would be
pictures图片 of you on lampposts路灯杆.
53
159800
2256
在街边的路灯柱上
也会贴出你的照片。
02:54
It's difficult to disappear消失
without a trace跟踪.
54
162080
2048
想要不留痕迹地就失踪了是很难的。
02:57
But if you just fled逃离 the war战争 in Syria叙利亚,
55
165120
1856
但如果你是从叙利亚的战场上逃离的,
02:59
and your family家庭,
if you have any family家庭 left,
56
167000
2976
那你的家人,如果你还有任何家人的话,
03:02
don't necessarily一定 know where you are,
57
170000
2056
也不一定知道你在哪,
03:04
and you're staying here illegally非法
58
172080
2016
你在这里非法的生活,
03:06
amongst其中包括 thousands数千 of others其他
who come and go every一切 day.
59
174120
2840
每天有成千上万的人在你身边经过。
03:09
Well, if you disappear消失 one day,
nobody没有人 will notice注意.
60
177440
3680
那么,如果有一天你消失了,
谁也不会注意。
03:13
The police警察 won't惯于 come search搜索 for you
because nobody没有人 knows知道 you're gone走了.
61
181600
3286
警方也不会搜寻你,
因为没人知道你离开了。
03:18
And this is what happened发生
to Shadi沙迪 Omar奥马尔 KatafKataf
62
186160
2736
这就是从叙利亚来的
Shadi Omar Kataf
03:20
and MouazMouaz Al Balkhi巴尔希 from Syria叙利亚.
63
188920
2320
和Mouaz Al Balkhi两人的遭遇。
03:24
Me and Tomm人Tomm went to Calais加莱
for the first time in April四月 this year,
64
192768
3048
今年四月,我和Tomm
第一次去加来,
03:27
and after three months个月 of investigation调查,
we were able能够 to tell the story故事
65
195840
3336
经过三个月的调查后,
我们现在可以给大家讲一讲
03:31
about how these two young年轻 men男人
fled逃离 the war战争 in Syria叙利亚,
66
199200
2776
那两个从叙利亚战场上
逃离的年轻人
03:34
ended结束 up stuck卡住 in Calais加莱,
67
202000
1736
是如何买了潜水服,
03:35
bought wetsuits潜水服 and drowned淹死的
in what seems似乎 to have been an attempt尝试
68
203760
3376
然后大概是想要
穿越英吉利海峡去英国时被淹死
03:39
to swim游泳 across横过 the English英语 Channel渠道
in order订购 to reach达到 England英国.
69
207160
2960
在加来结束了生命的。
03:43
It is a story故事 about the fact事实
that everybody每个人 has a name名称,
70
211280
3216
这是一个真实的故事,
每个人都有自己的名字,
03:46
everybody每个人 has a story故事,
everybody每个人 is someone有人.
71
214520
2440
每个人都有自己的故事,
每个人都是真实存在的。
03:49
But it is also a story故事 about what
it's like to be a refugee难民 in Europe欧洲 today今天.
72
217480
5616
但这是一个关于如今
欧洲的难民是如何生活的故事。
03:55
So this is where we started开始 our search搜索.
73
223120
1936
这就是我们开始调查的地方。
03:57
This is in Calais加莱.
74
225080
1496
这是加来。
03:58
Right now, between之间 3,500
and 5,000 people are living活的 here
75
226600
3096
现在,有大概3500到5000
生活条件很差的人
04:01

76
229720
1576
生活在这个地方。
04:03
It has been dubbed配音

这里被称为
全欧洲最糟糕的难民营。
04:06
Limited有限 access访问 to food餐饮,

78
234320
3056
有限的食物,
有限的用水,
04:09

237400
1496
有限的卫生保健。
04:10
Disease疾病 and infections感染 are widespread广泛.
80
238920
2280
疾病和传染病大肆横行。
04:13
And they're all stuck卡住 here
because they're trying to get to England英国
81
241920
3176
他们全都困在这个地方
因为他们都想去英国
04:17
in order订购 to claim要求 asylum避难所.
82
245120
1416
去寻求庇护。
04:18
And they do that by hiding in the back
of trucks卡车 headed当家 for the ferry渡船,
83
246560
3536
他们通过藏在驶向轮渡
04:22
or the Eurotunnel英法海底隧道,
84
250120
1200
或者是驶向欧洲隧道的卡车后面,
04:24
or they sneak潜行 inside
the tunnel隧道 terminal终奌站 at night
85
252440
2336
或者他们趁夜间
溜到隧道口
04:26
to try to hide隐藏 on the trains火车.
86
254800
1880
试着去爬上火车藏到火车里。
04:29
Most want to go to Britain英国
because they know the language语言,
87
257519
2937
大多数人都想去英国
因为他们懂英语,
04:32
and so they figure数字 it would be easier更轻松
to restart重新开始 their lives生活 from there.
88
260480
3496
他们觉得在那里重新
开始他们的生活会简单很多。
04:36
They want to work, they want to study研究,
89
264000
1816
他们想要工作,想要学习,
04:37
they want to be able能够
to continue继续 their lives生活.
90
265840
2136
他们想要继续他们的生活。
04:40
A lot of these people are
highly高度 educated博学 and skilled技能的 workers工人.
91
268000
2936
他们中的许多人其实是
受过高等教育的,也有很多是技术工人。
04:42
If you go to Calais加莱 and talk to refugees难民,
you'll你会 meet遇到 lawyers律师, politicians政治家,
92
270960
3536
如果你到加来和那些难民交谈,
你会碰到律师,政治家,
04:46
engineers工程师, graphic图像 designers设计师,
farmers农民, soldiers士兵.
93
274520
2656
工程师,平面设计师,
农民和士兵。
04:49
You've got the whole整个 spectrum光谱.
94
277200
1429
你会看到三百六十行。
04:51
But who all of these people are
95
279520
2376
但是他们所有人
04:53
usually平时 gets得到 lost丢失 in the way
we talk about refugees难民 and migrants移民,
96
281920
4456
其实是难以区分
是难民还是移民的,
04:58
because we usually平时 do that in statistics统计.
97
286400
3016
因为我们经常“用数据说话”。
05:01
So you have 60 million百万 refugees难民 globally全球.
98
289440
2176
全球有6000万的难民。
05:03
About half a million百万
have made制作 the crossing路口
99
291640
2016
到现在为止今年已经有
大概50万穿过了
05:05
over the Mediterranean地中海
into Europe欧洲 so far this year,
100

2456
地中海到达了欧洲,
05:08
and roughly大致 4,000 are staying in Calais加莱.
101
296160
2256
粗略的算,有4000人正待在加来。
05:10
But these are numbers数字,
102
298440
1496
但这些只是数字,
05:11
and the numbers数字 don't say anything
about who these people are,
103
299960
3816
对于这些人是谁,他们从哪来,
为什么他们要来这儿,
05:15
where they came来了 from, or why they're here.
104
303800
2480
数据其实是说不清的。
05:19
And first, I want to tell you
about one of them.
105
307640
2239
首先,我想给你们讲讲
他们其中的一个人。

所以整个家庭搬到了大马士革
一个叫亚蒙克难民营的地方。

之后他说:“难民们把那的草都吃了,
所以现在那已经寸草不生了。”
09:05
Out of a population人口 of 150,000,

他希望到了意大利后
能找一个潜水员的工作。
09:50
Reality现实 was not that easy简单.
194

1840
然而现实很残酷。
09:53
We don't know much about his travels旅行
195
581520
1816
我们对他的旅途知之甚少,
09:55
because he had a hard time
communicating通信 with his family家庭,
196
583360
2696
因为他很难联系上他的家人,
09:58
but we do know that he struggled挣扎.

10:15
I can't afford给予 to pay工资 the people smugglers走私者

204
607040
2240

10:22
His cousin表姐, of course课程,
tried试着 to warn警告 him not to,
205
610560
2456
当然了,他的堂兄
曾试着警告他不要这样做,
10:25

10:42
and none没有 of his family家庭
will be able能够 to attend出席.
212
630720
2560
他的家人谁也参加不了葬礼。
10:47
Many许多 may可能 think that the story故事
about Shadi沙迪 and MouazMouaz
213
635080
2536
很多人可能都觉得
Shadi和Mouaz的故事
10:49
is a story故事 about death死亡,
214
637640
1800
是一个关于死亡的故事
10:52
but I don't agree同意.
215
640800
1216
但我不这么认为。
10:54
To me, this is a story故事 about two questions问题
that I think we all share分享:
216
642040
5456
对我来说,关于这个故事
有两个问题值得我们深思:
10:59
what is a better life,
217
647520
1776
什么是更好的生活?
11:01
and what am I willing愿意 to do to achieve实现 it?
218
649320
2320
为了达成那种生活我应该怎样去做?
11:04
And to me, and probably大概 a lot of you,
219
652760
1776
对于我来说,
可能也是对你们中的大多数人来说,
11:06
a better life would mean
220
654560
1576
更好的生活可能意味着
11:08
being存在 able能够 to do more
of what we think of as meaningful富有意义的,
221
656160
2896
做更多的我们觉得有意义的事,
11:11
whether是否 that be spending开支 more time
with your family家庭 and friends朋友,
222
659080
3000
可能是花更多的时间
陪陪家人,和朋友相处,
11:14
travel旅行 to an exotic异国情调 place地点,
223
662104
1512
或是到异国他乡旅游,
11:15
or just getting得到 money
to buy购买 that cool new device设备
224
663640
2336
或是挣更多的钱买很酷的新装置,
11:18
or a pair of new sneakers球鞋.
225
666000
1696
或者一双新的运动鞋。
11:19
And this is all
within our reach达到 pretty漂亮 easily容易.
226
667720
2720
这些都是我们很容易就能获得的。
11:23
But if you are fleeing逃离 a war战争 zone,
227
671840
1936
但如果你身陷战区,
11:25
the answers答案 to those two questions问题
are dramatically显着 different不同.
228
673800
3976
对于这两个问题的回答就会截然不同了。
11:29
A better life is a life in safety安全.
229
677800
2256
更美好的生活意味着安全的生活。
11:32
It's a life in dignity尊严.
230
680080
2336
意味着有尊严的生活。
11:34
A better life means手段
not having your house bombed轰炸,
231
682440
2656
更好的生活就是
你的房子没有被炸毁,
11:37
not fearing担心 being存在 kidnapped绑架.
232
685120
1536
不用担心被绑架。
11:38
It means手段 being存在 able能够
to send发送 your children孩子 to school学校,
233
686680
2429
你可以把你的孩子送去学校上学,
11:41
go to university大学,
234
689133
1163
一直上到大学,
11:42
or just find work to be able能够 to provide提供
for yourself你自己 and the ones那些 you love.
235
690320
4416
或者仅仅是找一个可以养活你
和你爱的人的工作。
11:46
A better life would be
a future未来 of some possibilities可能性
236
694760
3616
更好的生活可能是还对未来有一些希望
11:50
compared相比 to nearly几乎 none没有,
237
698400
2296
而不是毫无希望,
11:52
and that's a strong强大 motivation动机.
238
700720
1760
这是一种很强的动力。
11:55
And I have no trouble麻烦 imagining想象
239
703480
2096
我不难想象
11:57
that after spending开支 weeks or even months个月
240
705600
3496
作为一个二等公民,
12:01
as a second-grade二年级 citizen公民,
241
709120
1896
住在大街上或难民营里,
12:03
living活的 on the streets街道
or in a horrible可怕 makeshift凑合的 camp
242
711040
4136
这样的地方还被称作“丛林”
这样一个很愚蠢的,带有种族主义的名字,
12:07
with a stupid, racist种族主义者 name名称
like "The Jungle丛林,"
243
715200
3456
像这样生活了数周甚至数月后,
12:10
most of us would be willing愿意
to do just about anything.
244
718680
3520
我们中的很多人都会
想去做任何事情。
12:15
If I could ask Shadi沙迪 and MouazMouaz
245
723200
2256
如果我可以在Shadi和Mouaz
12:17
the second第二 they stepped加强 into the freezing冷冻
waters水域 of the English英语 Channel渠道,
246
725480
4056
踏进英吉利海峡冰冷的水中的那一刻
问他们是否值得,
12:21
they would probably大概 say,
"This is worth价值 the risk风险,"
247
729560
2760
他们可能都会说,
“这值得冒险。”
12:25
because they could
no longer see any other option选项.
248
733160
2960
因为他们看不到其它任何选择。
12:29
And that's desperation绝望,
249
737400
1200
这很令人绝望,
12:31
but that's the reality现实 of living活的
as a refugee难民 in Western西 Europe欧洲 in 2015.
250
739680
5120
但这也是生命的真实写照。
12:37

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Anders Fjellberg - Journalist
For the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet, Anders Fjellberg investigated the story of "The Wetsuitman," along with his co-author, photographer Tomm Christiansen.

Why you should listen
In June and July 2015, Norwegian journalist Anders Fjellberg published a harrowing two-part investigation in Magasinet, the weekend magazine of daily newspaper Dagbladet, published in Oslo. Co-authored with photographer Tomm Christiansen, “The Wetsuitman” traced the origin of two dead bodies washed ashore in Norway and the Netherlands wearing wetsuits, identifying them as Syrian asylum seekers who had seemingly tried the inconceivable: swimming their way into the United Kingdom from the beach of Calais, France. Fjellberg has been a reporter since 2010. “The Wetsuitman” has been reprinted in newspapers across Europe.
