1910年6月,库斯托出生于法国西南部的纪龙德省。17岁时,厌倦了公立学校无聊生活的库斯托在打碎学校第七块玻璃以后被校方开除。此后,他进入法国海军军官学校学习飞行,但是一次几乎致命的车祸彻底摧毁了库斯托想要飞上蓝天的梦想。因此,他不得不转学到了海军部,为了强壮他在车祸中受伤的手臂,库斯托开始学习游泳。经过一段长期而痛苦的恢复过程,游泳帮助他恢复了体力,尽管他的两只胳膊最终都恢复了健康,但他的右胳膊还是有轻微的弯曲,成了他终生的遗憾。但与此同时,库斯托未来生命的路线也随之确立。 In June 1910, Cousteau was born in Jordonde, southwest France. At the age of 17, Cousteau, tired of the boring life of public schools, was expelled from the school after breaking the seventh glass of the school. After that, he entered the French naval officer school to learn to fly, but an almost deadly car accident completely destroyed Cousteau’s dream of flying to the sky. As a result, he had to transfer to the Admiralty, and to stoop his arm in a car accident, Cousteau began to learn to swim. After a long and painful recovery, swimming helped him regain his strength. Although both of his arms eventually regained their health, his right arm was slightly bent, making him a lifetime regret. At the same time, however, the course of Cousteau’s future life is enshrined.
