Weeks away and hundreds of miles up a river that snaked through the war like a main circuit cable plugged straight into Kurtz. It was no accident that I got to be the caretaker of Colonel Walter E.

I was going to the worst place in the world

00:00:03.168 --> 00:00:05.329

and I didn't even know it yet

00:00:06.547 --> 00:00:09.334

Weeks away and hundreds of miles up a river

00:00:09.425 --> 00:00:11.882

that snaked through the war like a main circuit cable

00:00:12.553 --> 00:00:14.544

plugged straight into Kurtz

00:00:14.638 --> 00:00:17.345

Insult me again and I'll kick your ass

00:00:17.975 --> 00:00:20.466

It was no accident that I got to be the caretaker

00:00:20.561 --> 00:00:22.973

of colonel Walter e Kurtz's memory

00:00:23.439 --> 00:00:26.727

any more than being back in Saigon was an accident

00:00:28.319 --> 00:00:31.857

There is no way to tell his story without telling my own

00:00:32.615 --> 00:00:34.606

And if his story is really a confession

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.914

J'ignorais que le pire endroit du monde m'attendait

00:00:06.463 --> 00:00:08.871

à des semaines en amont d'une rivière

00:00:09.999 --> 00:00:12.258

serpentant à travers la guerre comme un câble électrique

00:00:12.511 --> 00:00:15.295

branché directement sur Kurtz

00:00:17.085 --> 00:00:20.305

Je ne devins pas par hasard dépositaire

00:00:20.561 --> 00:00:23.052

de la mémoire du coloneI Kurtz

00:00:23.314 --> 00:00:26.647

Pas plus que je n'étais revenu à Saïgon par hasard

00:00:28.036 --> 00:00:31.812

Raconter son histoire c'est raconter la mienne

00:00:32.531 --> 00:00:35.402

Si son histoire est une confession

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:05.164

Ich sollte mich an den schlimmsten Ort der Welt begeben

00:00:05.213 --> 00:00:09.839

und ahnte es noch nicht einmal Erst Wochen später und Hunderte Kilometer

00:00:09.884 --> 00:00:14.048

stromaufwärts auf einem Fluss der sich durch den Krieg schlängelte

00:00:14.097 --> 00:00:18.308

wie ein Hauptstromkabel das direkt mit Kurtz verbunden war

00:00:18.351 --> 00:00:22.479

Es war weder ein Zufall dass ich der Vergangenheitshüter

00:00:22.522 --> 00:00:28.192

von Colonel Walter E Kurtz wurde noch dass ich wieder in Saigon war

00:00:28.236 --> 00:00:32.613

Es gibt keine Möglichkeit seine Geschichte ohne meine zu erzählen

00:00:32.657 --> 00:00:37.864

Und falls seine Geschichte wirklich ein Bekenntnis ist ist es meine auch

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.935

Я отправлялся в самое страшное место на планете Земля

00:00:04.036 --> 00:00:06.834

и пока не имел об этом ни малейшего понятия

00:00:06.939 --> 00:00:09.874

Прошли недели и сотни миль реки проплыли мы

00:00:09.975 --> 00:00:13.172

реки прятавшейся в джунглях

00:00:13.279 --> 00:00:15.941

земли охваченной огнем войны

00:00:18.117 --> 00:00:20.881

Я не удивляюсь что именно меня выбрали для того чтобы

00:00:20.986 --> 00:00:23.716

избавиться от полковника Курца

00:00:23.823 --> 00:00:28.059

Возвращение в Сайгон было ошибкой

00:00:28.694 --> 00:00:32.562

У меня не выйдет рассказать его историю не поделившись своей

00:00:32.665 --> 00:00:35.259

Если его история это настоящая исповедь

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.096

yo iba al peor el lugar en el mundo

00:00:04.131 --> 00:00:06.067

y no lo sabía aún

00:00:06.706 --> 00:00:09.315

semanas antes y a cientos de millas

00:00:09.035 --> 00:00:11.715

río arriba serpenteando a través de la guerra

00:00:11.082 --> 00:00:13.629

como un cable del circuito principal

00:00:13.735 --> 00:00:15.891

conectado directamente a Kurtz

00:00:19.162 --> 00:00:22.154

no era ningún accidente de que yo fuera a ser el guardián

00:00:22.223 --> 00:00:24.588

de la memoria del Coronel Walter E Kurtz

00:00:24.694 --> 00:00:29.494

más que volver a Saigón era un accidente

00:00:29.053 --> 00:00:32.003

no hay manera para contar su historia

00:00:32.139 --> 00:00:34.435

sin contar la mía

00:00:34.504 --> 00:00:37.844

y si su historia es realmente una confesión
