For the drivers, of course, that means there is virtually no margin for error: they go into the wall, or over the edge, or into each other.

对于司机来讲，当然了，这意味着他们没有丝毫犯错误的余地：否则他们要么撞上山岩，要么他们撞上石礁，要么干脆两个全部都撞上去。

But the fact of the matter was they tried, they couldn't get over the wall, he went and had one more go, and waited for them for two hours on the other side of the fence.

我全面调查了这件事，确实做了深入探访。 我不想坐在这里随随便便地说，他没有做错，而是其他人误解了他。事实真相是，那两人做了逃跑的努力，但无法翻过院墙，我祖父试了几次终于翻了过去，他在墙外等了他们两个小时。
