A man quickly removes his clothes and jumps into freezing water to rescue a stranger.

    1. Damn, he’s brave! Not because he jumped into freezing water from a bridge to save someone but because it looks like it could be china and he is risking being sued into oblivion just for helping.

    2. Cold water, zero hesitation dude didn’t just save a life, he unlocked main character energy in real time.

      It’s fascinating to watch the guy turn 🥶blue🥶 from the bridge to the person in the water.

      Looks like he has had training, maybe he was a former lifeguard. The guy in the water was lucky he was around.

      I’ve jumped in glacial lakewater before (probably closer to 35-40F, not freezing like here), and this is incredibly impressive.

      When you hit the water, the shock instantly takes your breath away. After 30 seconds in the water it makes you practically start hyperventilating from the cold and your muscles slow down and become stiff. This guy is a beast, I have no idea how he made it to shore.

      Thank you for posting this. My diminished faith in humanity has been restored a bit today.

      A lot of people could save someone in decent temps. You just don’t how your body will react with super cold temps. Hats off to dude for being able to fight through that. Sometimes your body will just stop working in temps like that.

      I’d jump in and save a stranger, but I’d need a rope tied to that ring. I wouldn’t trust my body’s ability to keep going. I’ve been trained as a lifeguard.

    8. I can’t swim, so in a situation like this, all I can do is just watch someone drowning. 😳

    9. The rescuer has training and real life experience. 1) During his leap and fall he kept his eye on the subject. 2) he entered the water properly to have minimal disruption and maintained direction to float and subject 3) maintained sight of subject during swim 4) kept distance from the subject to prevent a double drowning 5) presented float to subject and allowed subject to recognize 6) at the point the subject is gaining recognition was able to position the float. 7) maintained safe distance to prevent secondary panic and double drowning.

      To any reader, if you don’t know have the real in water training to pull some one from the water you will only double crisis.

      Isn’t jumping in like that really risky? Will some people take a big autonomic deep breath? Or am i misunderstanding?

      Damn that guy is a bad ass. Also, anyone notice how well he swims? He obviously spent some time as a competitive swimmer.
