Much fun has been had in recent days over footage of Daisuke Iwata and Koichiro Horiuchi riding a scream-inducing rollercoaster in silence. A condition of reopening the Fuji-Q Highland theme park in the Covid-19 era (and the purpose of their rictus-faced demonstration) is that visitors must emulate their feat to avoid spreading thrilled exhalation into the slipstream of fellow passengers. “Please scream,” concludes the park’s new slogan, “inside your heart”.
近日,富士急高原樂園(Fuji-Q Highland)社長巖田大昌(Daisuke Iwata)和母公司、運營鐵路和巴士的富士急行株式會社社長堀內光一郎(Koichiro Horiuchi)默不作聲地乘坐讓遊客尖叫不已的過山車的影片,給網友帶來了不少歡樂。在新型冠狀病毒肺炎(COVID-19,即2019冠狀病毒病)疫情期間,富士急高原樂園重新開放的一個條件(也是兩人此次板着臉示範的目的)是,遊客必須效仿他們的做法,以避免興奮時的呼氣被同車乘客吸入。樂園的新口號是:「請在內心尖叫吧」。
