The pigs had been in their pens but were so terrified by the sight of the red-and-white-striped balloon and the noise from its burners they charged through fences, stampeded 200 yards and ended up in a ditch at the end of the field.
原本呆在围栏里的猪,因为被红白相间的热气球及其燃烧炉发出的声音吓到,随即越过栅栏四处逃窜了200多码(约183米)最后掉进了一个水沟里。
Hot air balloons are banned from flying lower than 1,500ft over it or closer than 1,500ft to it.
热气球在飞行时,与地面的距离被禁止低于低于或接近1500英尺(约457.2米)。
On this occasion, Mr Gilbank – who has run the farm with his father for 16 years – suspected the offending balloon had breached these limits as it soared over the North Yorkshire countryside.
因此,和父亲一起经营农场有16年之久的丹,怀疑这个在约克郡北部乡村上空飞行的热气球违反了规定。
But the balloon’s operators insisted it had come no closer than 2,500ft to the farm.
但是当时的热气球操作员坚持说热气球与村庄的距离超过了2500英尺(约762米)。
Insurers for the company used GPS data generated during the flight to back their claim that it could not have caused the stampede.
热气球公司的保险人员查看了飞行过程中的GPS数据也支持了操作员的说法,认为猪受惊事件不是由此导致的。
