It may have been small and somewhat close to shore, but we swam out and touched it.

Keep in mind here that in water that cold, your body starts to shut down after about 2 minutes and you DIE at 30 minutes, so 15 seconds is LONG ENOUGH, thank you.

We got warm clothes on and jumped into a heated car immediately after this. Our legs were still tingly for about 45 minutes after that.

We did this as a joke, but seriously, that water is nothing to be trifled with. Sky and I are both excellent swimmers in really good condition. If you plan on doing this, make sure you'll survive before you get in the water!!

  • No! You killed my perfect score! Just kidding. Thanks for watching, Marie. :)

  • I've been skydiving 2 times and absolutely LOVED it! I don't know if it is for everyone though. One lady who went the first time with me absolutely hated it and got really motion sick too.

    I've hiked on and touched an iceberg in New Zealand but never swam out to touch one! Guess that can be my next adventure...hehe brrrrrrrrrr

  • So I tried to rate you a five but the stupid thing stopped at 3 or whatever it was and I cant change it! =0( Love this adventure!!!

  • Thanks Salime. Some time you, me, and Brandon will hook up for some crazy adventures together. :)
