Coming across this unexpected shape on the seabed is enough to take your breath away － so it’s a good job you’d probably have a tankful of breaths strapped to your back.
光是在海床上偶遇此等令人意想不到的形體，就足以令人驚到倒抽一口氣—你（若）背上背了滿滿一瓶氣的話，就太幸運了。
The venerable old Lockheed Martin L1011 Tristar airplane, with its three engines, mounted on wings and tail fin, would be a sight to behold in the air or on the ground, let alone deep beneath the surface of the Red Sea, among the fish and coral.
無論是在天上或在地面，更別說是在紅海海面下深處的魚群與珊瑚間，這架可敬的、兩翼與尾翼共裝有3具發動機的洛克希德馬丁L1011三星老飛機，值得一看。
The abandoned jet, sunk in 2019 to create an artificial reef to encourage marine life, has been photographed by American underwater photographer Brett Holzer in a series of images that capture the eerie spectacle created by this aquatic airliner.
這架在2019年沈入海中、充作人造礁石來鼓勵海洋生物的廢棄噴射機，被美國水下攝影師布瑞特．霍爾澤透過一系列照片捕捉到由水中飛機所營造的詭異景象。
