不管你是喜欢还是厌恶，自拍杆已经随处可见了，你可能每天都会看到用这个奇妙的小装置进行自拍的行人。
Selfie sticks are everywhere - whether you love them or loathe them, chances are you won't go a day without seeing someone snapping themselves with the contraption.
但有一位男人对这种极端时髦的现象已经感到怒不可遏，他要把命运掌握在自己手里。
But one man with a burning hatred of the phenomenon has taken matters into his own hands in extreme fashion.
巴迪·博尔顿手持一副大剪刀，潜伏在纽约街头，对自拍杆进行“斩首”打击，使得手机纷纷砸到了地上。
Armed with a pair of shears, Buddy Bolton has been sneaking around the streets of New York decapitating selfie sticks, sending smartphones smashing to the ground.
根据一段视频显示，这位自称义警的男人蹑手蹑脚地靠近毫无警戒的游客，把自拍杆剪成两段后迅速逃跑。
Footage shows the self-styled vigilante creeping up on unsuspecting tourists before cutting their selfie sticks in half and legging it.
有些受害人一脸震惊，当其他人奋起追赶犯人时，他们还在默默捡起他们被破坏的物品的碎片。
Some of his victims are left in shock to pick up the pieces of their destroyed property while others give chase.
事实上，博尔顿是一名独角滑稽秀演员，他在YouTube上分享恶作剧视频，收到的评价褒贬不一。
Bolton is actually a stand-up comedian who posted a video of the prank to YouTube - where is has received mixed reviews.
一些观看者将这种恶作剧称为“伟大的作品”，然而另一些人并不喜欢这样的作品，认为他是个“恶心的人”。
Some viewers hailed the stunt as a "masterpiece" while others who were less than impressed branded him a "disgusting person".
博尔顿在接受DNAinfo采访时表示：“我们认为这是出于一种好意。我们的目的不是要真的表现得很刻薄。”
Bolton told DNAinfo: "We thought it was good-hearted. It wasn't our intention to be really mean."
