A road safety organisation in Australia has created a mock-up of the perfect body needed to survive a car crash. Australia's Transport Accident Commission (TAC) has called its human-looking creation 'Graham'. TAC commissioned a sculpture of Graham and released a video to educate road users about road safety. Although Graham is humanesque, he is somewhat grotesque in parts and resembles a character from a horror movie. The BBC says: "He has a head shaped like a boulder, feet snarled like tree roots and a chest like a wrinkled battering ram." A spokesperson from TAC said Graham was designed to highlight how frail and vulnerable the human body is when involved in a vehicle collision on the roads.

澳大利亞道路安全局制作車(chē)禍人體模型，稱這類體型的人群可在車(chē)禍中幸免于難。澳大利亞交通事故委員會(huì)將這種人臉模型稱之為“Graham”。TAC（澳大利亞交通事故委員會(huì)）授權(quán)制作“Graham”模型，并公布了有關(guān)道路安全視頻。盡管“Graham”形似人形，但許多身體部位非常怪誕，類似恐怖電影中的角色。BBC表示：“他的頭形似卵石，雙腳像樹(shù)根一樣互相纏繞，胸部就像起了褶皺的破城錘。”TAC發(fā)言人稱“Graham”的設(shè)計(jì)目的在于，展現(xiàn)人類在車(chē)禍中脆弱的一面。

TAC commissioned celebrated artist Patricia Piccinini to create the artwork for Graham. She collaborated with a leading trauma surgeon and a road crash investigation expert to get the right look and build for Graham. She gave Graham a thick skull, a wider neck, an inflatable chest that acts like airbags, and hoof-like legs that allow Graham to jump out of dangerous situations. TAC chief executive Joe Calafiore commented on why his organisation commissioned Graham as an educational tool. He said: "Cars have evolved a lot faster than humans and Graham helps us understand why we need to improve every aspect of our roads system to protect ourselves from our own mistakes."

TAC委任著名藝術(shù)家帕翠西亞·皮奇尼尼制作“Graham”。她與創(chuàng)傷外科醫(yī)生，以及車(chē)禍調(diào)查專家一同完成“Graham”的制作。“Graham”的頭骨更厚，脖子更寬，充氣型胸部就如同氣囊，雙腿像馬蹄一樣可以讓他逃離危險(xiǎn)。TAC行政長(zhǎng)官喬·卡拉菲奧雷對(duì)制作“Graham”教學(xué)模型的原因發(fā)表了看法。他稱：“汽車(chē)的發(fā)展速度要遠(yuǎn)超人類，而通過(guò)“Graham”我們可以得知，我們?yōu)槭裁葱枰嵘缆废到y(tǒng)的方方面面來(lái)保護(hù)我們，避免我們犯錯(cuò)誤。”
