Disney is destroying itself

[BOP]

During one of my Aircrew survival schools, they showed us footage of some research the Royal Navy had done with volunteers being immersed into freezing water. In a very short time those guys were shivering so bad it looked like convulsions. Had to be pulled from the water, they couldn't move and certainly couldn't talk.

I saw that as well. They pulled them out of the water wearing nothing but their skivvies, and then rolled them in snow.

I used to go scuba diving in Jan/Feb in the Northeast. Come out after an hour and head for the nearest hot coffee, shivering all the way.

Does that count?

I surfed in California in the winter. Water temp was 58 degrees, and I only had a spring suit. That totally counts.

When we were kids, our parental units took us to Lake Superior where we'd swim with only our swimsuits in late Spring, or early Summer. A lot colder than 58 degrees.

Water temp was 58 degrees

Pfft. Warm bath.

Was teaching a class one winter, came out and the water froze on our suits. We made a new rule: no outdoor classes when the windchill is lower than the water temp.
