一张疑似苹果公司创始人史蒂夫·乔布斯（Steve Jobs）的照片，周末起在网上疯传，引发人们对其“诈死”的阴谋论猜测。

一个名叫Ahmed Basyouney的脸书用户，分享了一张酷似乔布斯的照片，并留言说乔布斯坐在埃及首都开罗的一家咖啡店里。

距离乔布斯因患胰腺癌逝世已过去了8年，但人们始终对这位创立了苹果公司强大科技帝国并改变了整个行业的乔帮主充满了无限的怀念。

因此，尽管上传这张照片的Basyouney没有回应网友，照片是否为他本人所拍摄，这张照片还是立刻在多个社交媒体上被疯传。在脸书上，Basyouney的发帖被分享了2800多次，收到了近350条评论。

照片中，这名侧影酷似乔布斯的男子光着脚、抚着下巴，像极了乔帮主生前思考难题时的习惯。于是，不少网友猜测，乔布斯根本没死，而是遁世隐居在埃及。

The CEO of Apple died in 2011, but now people are questioning whether it was all a ruse after a lookalike was photographed in Egypt.

苹果公司的首席执行官（史蒂夫·乔布斯）于2011年去世，但现在人们质疑这是否只是一个诡计，因为在埃及有一位长相酷似乔布斯的人被拍到。

The grey-haired, bearded man is seen in profile sitting at an outdoor table. He is wearing glasses and a watch but no shoes, and bears a striking resemblance to the late tech billionaire.

一张侧影照片显示，这名灰白头发、蓄着胡须的男子正坐在户外咖啡馆的一张桌子旁。他戴着眼镜和手表，但没有穿鞋，与这位已故科技行业亿万富翁惊人地相似。

It’s unknown when the photo was taken, but it was first uploaded to Facebook and then Reddit, where speculation about the man’s identity quickly escalated.

目前还不清楚这张照片是什么时候拍摄的，但它先是被上传到脸书上，然后又传到Reddit上，关于这名男子身份的猜测迅速升级。

Believers said the man in the photograph was making the same hand-to-face gesture Jobs made in many famous photos. Others were convinced the man’s posture and haircut were similar, although he’s missing the black turtleneck and blue jeans that made up Jobs’ trademark outfit.

相信照片中人就是乔帮主本人的网友说，照片中的男子从手部到脸部的姿势、表情和乔布斯在许多著名照片中的表现是一样的。其他人则认为此人和乔布斯的姿势和发型很像，不过他没有穿乔布斯标志性的黑色高领毛衣和蓝色牛仔裤。

在Reddit论坛上一条以《史蒂夫·乔布斯假装去世后隐藏在埃及》的帖子收到了近8万个赞以及超过1700个评论，正反两方网友们争论起照片中的到底是不是乔帮主本尊。

“I know this is supposed to be a joke, but WTF, this guy looks too much like Steve Jobs to be so random,” read one of the top-rated comments.

其中一条评分最高的评论写道:“我知道这应该是个玩笑，但天哪，这家伙长得太像史蒂夫·乔布斯了，哪儿有那么巧的事。”

Others argued that faking his death and then hiding in Egypt would totally be something that Jobs would do.

另一些人则认为，乔布斯假装已经死了，然后躲在埃及，这完全是乔布斯会做的事情。

“I’m not very into conspiracy theories, but Jobs would be crazy enough to actually do it,” one netizen quipped.

一位网友调侃道:“我对阴谋论不是很感兴趣，但乔布斯真的会疯狂到这么做。”

However, party-poopers soon began poking holes in the would-be airtight theory.

然而，扫兴者很快就开始在这个“完美理论”上挑刺。

“Nah he’s not wearing an Apple Watch,” an observant Reddit user noted.

“不，他没有戴苹果手表，”一位细心的Reddit用户提出。

Others pointed out that Jobs’ biological father was Syrian, perhaps making it more likely that men sharing similar physical attributes would be found in Mediterranean countries.

另一些人指出，乔布斯的生父是叙利亚人，这可能使地中海国家的男性更有可能拥有和乔布斯相似的外貌特征。

不过，这并不是“乔布斯尚在人世”的“阴谋论”第一次出现。2014年时，Reddit上也曾流传过一张酷似乔布斯的男子照片。那张照片的自拍者身后，是坐着轮椅的“乔布斯”，照片拍摄地点是巴西里约热内卢。

Brazilian Reddit reporter TheHorseSizedDuck recently shot and uploaded a selfie to Reddit with a familiar face in the background — what appears to be Steve Jobs being pushed in a wheelchair through the streets of a Brazilian city. The photo caption reads “Steve Jobs is in Rio de Janeiro, alive.”

近日，巴西Reddit网站的记者TheHorseSizedDuck拍摄了一张自拍照，并上传到了Reddit网站上，照片背景是一张熟悉的面孔，看起来像是史蒂夫·乔布斯坐在轮椅上，被推着走在巴西一座城市的街道上。照片的图片说明写着“史蒂夫·乔布斯还活着，在巴西的里约热内卢。”

The man in the picture certainly looks like Jobs towards the end of his life, albeit with a neckbrace, in a wheelchair and with what at first appears to be armfulls of tattoos but upon closer inspection is just a hideous shirt. He even has the glasses!

照片中的这个人看起来确实很像临终前的乔布斯，尽管他戴着颈托，坐在轮椅上，乍一眼手臂上满是纹身，但仔细一看，那不过是一件丑陋的衬衫。他甚至还戴着眼镜!

不过，后来照片中的男子亲自否认了他是乔布斯的说法。这个长相酷似乔布斯的男子名叫Andy Hahn，生长在美国宾夕法尼亚州，后移居巴西里约热内卢。他此前是杂志的编辑，患有肌萎缩侧索硬化（amyotrophic lateral sclerosis）。

It’s now been proven that this is not — as we suspected — a photo of present-day Steve Jobs. As Valleywag recently uncovered, the man in the background of the Reddit selfie is actually Andy Hahn, a former editor of Sport Fishing magazine who suffers from ALS.

现在已经证明，这张照片并不是我们所怀疑的当今史蒂夫·乔布斯的照片。正如Valleywag科技博客网站最近发现的，Reddit自拍照片背景中的男子实际上是安迪·哈恩，他曾是《钓鱼运动》杂志的编辑，患有肌萎缩性侧索硬化症。

Here’s an excerpt of the message Mr. Hahn sent to Valleywag’s Sam Biddle:

以下是哈恩发给Valleywag的山姆·比德尔的邮件节选:

“I ain’t Steve, but I am in Rio. And alive, dammit!

“我不是史蒂夫，但我在里约热内卢。该死的，还活着!

“That photo was taken last Sunday (August 3) afternoon when my aide Luiz and I were strolling/rolling along Avenida Atlantica in Copacabana. Some nut on a skateboard whizzed past us, and Luiz said, ‘I think we were in the photo that guy just took.’

这张照片拍摄于上周日(8月3日)下午，当时我和助手路易斯正在科帕卡巴纳的大西洋大道散步。某个踩着滑板的傻子从我们身边呼啸而过，路易斯说，“我想我们就在那个家伙刚刚拍的照片里。”

如此看来，现在就只能等这个埃及的男子出面澄清，他到底是不是乔布斯了。

你觉得照片中的男子是乔布斯吗？欢迎留言并分享观点！
