Winter Swimming in Siberia
 
I enjoy a Scottish Shower once in a while, but swimming at -36C? :helpme These people (from a local club in Krasnoyarsk) went swimming in the Yenisei River on December 12, while the air temperature was -36C.

That is quite cold. Polar bear clubs exist in many places, such as polar bear club in Toronto.

Davy 12-16-2010 01:09 PM

Well, they all have a lot of body fat, so maybe it is more bearable for them. :)
Any specific reason why they did it?

djroof 12-16-2010 01:30 PM

BlackCrayon 12-16-2010 01:30 PM

the water looks warmer than the air.

Phoenix 12-16-2010 01:37 PM

the best reward is getting inside....your whole body will feel like its on fire after dipping in the water or snow, then getting into a hot tub

DiF0r 12-16-2010 02:03 PM

woohoo that's sick

will76 12-16-2010 03:03 PM

If it was that cold why wasn't the water frozen as well??? Was it a hot spring or something. -36 unless the water was heated it would be frozen solid like everything else.

O MARINA 12-16-2010 03:10 PM

Serge Litehead 12-16-2010 07:50 PM

walrus club peeps, it's their hobby of healthy lifestyle

Pretty_Lara 12-16-2010 10:28 PM

if this is Yenisei River , probably this first or second day when temperature below 0 -10 ...in sybiria quickly down ...so maybe river not yet froze , but in a 2-3 days will freeze.

Im positive that salt water will still freeze. It's frozen here once before just from having temps below freezing for a couple days with the lows in the single digits. So don't think that would be it. Everything looks frozen solid in the picture, the weather is -36 how in the hell is that water not frozen unless if it was some type of hot spring.... hmmmm strange, shit doesnt seem to make sense.

it said it was in a river too. I call bullshit, if it was -36 that shit would have frozen over. they standing in ankle deep water and its not even frozen there???

you sit in a hot tub, than run out and jump into the cold water.. apparently very good for the skin, cleans out the pores, Ive seen maybe ppl do this at camp during the winter time.. I would never thou.

That's why I was talking about Scottish Showers... But this is a bit extreme :upsidedow

czarina 12-17-2010 06:14 AM

that's definitely not for me!

sicone 12-17-2010 06:15 AM

I know of some groups who do this as a fundraiser... I'd have to be counted out tho, I think it would be insta-heart attack for me

Chosen 12-17-2010 06:56 AM

brassmonkey 12-17-2010 07:27 AM

It could be worse - remember that Russian sauna champ that boiled himself to death sitting in 230º F water while competing in Finland earlier this year... :helpme

I did it few times in Moscow, but only after sauna. They put a big wooden boat in the middle of the frozen lake, with a built in sauna and break out the ice nearby for jumping in. The coldest temperature outside was -30. You can walk naked on the ice after the jump, you feel nothing. All you do is smile and scream :) A lot of fun.
