Scientists Prove Spider-Man Can't Stick on Walls
科学家来告诉你不能成为“蜘蛛侠”的原因！
According to a new article in the scientific journal "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,
科学家在美国《国家科学院学报》上新发表的文章中称，
" Spider-Man's ability to stick and climb to walls would be impossible in the real world.
蜘蛛侠利用粘性飞檐走壁的技能是不可能存在于现实生活中的。
Explaining how "sticky" animals could help advance research in bio-adhesives,
在解释“有吸附能力”的动物如何推动生物粘合剂研究时，
a group of scientists clarified that the human body would need to be 80% covered with sticky pads in order to stick to a wall or similar surface.
文章进一步解释，人类想要像蜘蛛侠那样飞檐走壁，体表需要覆盖80%的吸附垫。
In layman's, in order for Spider-Man to effectively climb up walls with "sticky" feet,
用外行人的话来说，要想利用带“粘性”的双脚攀岩走壁，
the web-slinging superhero would need a foot one meter long and 40 centimeters wide.
那么这位“吐丝织网”的超级英雄需要一双100厘米长、40厘米宽的大脚。
Outside of the Spider-Man films, however, Spider-Man doesn't use adhesive properties to stick onto walls.
撇开《蜘蛛侠》这一影片不说，其实蜘蛛侠飞檐走壁的技能并非依靠粘性。
In the comics, it is suggested his powers come from a natural ability to enhance the inter-atomic attractive forces on the surfaces he touches,
据原著漫画介绍，蜘蛛侠在接触物体表面时与物体内部原子互相作用后产生了吸附力，
allowing him to increase the friction between his body and those objects to otherwise impossible amounts.
由此增加了身体与物体间巨大的摩擦力。
That means that the study actually confirms that Spider-Man could climb up walls,
这意味着该项研究其实证明了蜘蛛侠是可以攀爬墙壁的,
given that his abilities are far stickier than the natural pads of most wall crawlers.
毕竟他的吸附能力远远高于其他的爬行类昆虫。
