When filming during the day is too safe I give you night time icey river immersion.

Pro tip from native Americans:
Carry a very long branch or pole and hold it perpendicular to your body while walking across ice. That way you won’t go all the way through and can use the stick as a bar to pull yourself out of the ice (which is normally the hardest thing to do after falling through)

Increase surface area.. makes perfect sense.. which is exactly the first thing to leave when shi hits the fan.

It’s similar to quicksand in that you need to spread your weight out. But unlike quicksand, it can kill you very quickly, and also continue to crack and drown you.
Getting out is only half the problem. Getting warm again is another story.
If you’re in cotton clothes, you’re dead before you get out of the water.
Synthetics give you a slight chance to survive and build a fire if you can because there’s some insulation compared to the weight of the clothes.
Wool gives the best insulation, 60% coverage even when soaking wet, but weighs an incredible amount while wet.
My brother personally tested these out (survival instructor). Cotton was instant hypothermia. Took days to recover. Poly was mildly better, but melts with how close you need to get to the fire to feel warmth. Wool was best, no hypothermia, but took all of his strength to get out of the water (and I think his friends helped him, not sure).
Surviving the fall through is just the beginning. Once you’re no longer drowning, you might just wish you were if you don’t have the tools to survive.

Good for this dude. Hope somebody sees and learns. I know I did.
Looks like the ultimate Cold water tutorial nature is Version of quicktime events.
Maybe try it during the daytime when there’s a little more visibility if you need to be rescued?

Oh, I thought it was a different kind of ice…
So basically imitate a seal ðŸ¦
