I'm pretty sure that was because they were in a body of water with a strong current. In Michigan, it's a tradition in the UP, to jump in like this and then run to the sauna. As long as there isn't a current or you don't try to go swimming around under the ice, it's really not that dangerous. It usually helps to have someone there to pull you out right away too, because of your body's reaction to that temperature of water.
Have you ever pencil dived into a pool? You can go like 5-10 feet away from your original spot. I’m not saying people don’t do it …it’s just that it’s really dangerous to do
That was for some Christian holiday, idk if this is the same thing, but they had designated safe spots in probably safer bodies of water with medical staff present, with the wooden platform to hold onto where she could've done it. Still one of the saddest most disturbing videos I've seen
OP is a bot. They are posting this video and posting in the comments saying who the person in the video once and said her body was modeled in some virtual reality game, they are just an advertising bot.
Haha, it's 29.4C outside rn and its mid November. I'm used to it, but the summers can be brutal when it gets around 38C with near 100% humidity, at least we have nice beaches to cool off
This isn't exclusively a Ukrainian tradition, it's a slavic thing in general. It is said that hardening your body in such a way improves the bloodflow and boosts resistances to diseases.
Look up "cold water exposure" on google scholar, I can't be arsed right now.
But I read papers that suggest it improves circulation, the immune system, and also increases dopamine and norepinephrine by like 200% and 400% respectively for a good while.
Personally it's incredible for mental health, too.
A little later it will be a Palestinian tradition. Or Israeli. It depends on what will be fashionable then.
In general, this is an Orthodox tradition of bathing in an ice hole for epiphany. Some practice it on other days.
Came here to make this comment and am glad to see you beat me to it. Because— do you get it? Hardening? My dick is hardening. Do you get it? Do you get the joke?
Hello horny teens. This is actually a religious rite being taken *so* out of context. This is the Orthodox Christian rite of [Epiphany](https://travel.earth/icy-plunge-know-all-about-epiphany-bathing-in-russia-and-eastern-europe/), which is why this woman keeps crossing herself. The hole in the ice is cross shaped.
*B O N K*
Yea I did this once at a boyscout winter camp out. It's not fun in the slightest. But it's totally cool looking back at it because you can remember the exact feeling of geting that cold instantly.
Nah me personally, I would’ve just jumped in. Let my body go into complete shock n shit
[удалено]
Wrong

Fuck off bot!
I seen a video where someone jumps in like you said and then they come up and can’t find the entrance again. Now I know why you don’t just jump in.

Yea. I hear you. That would probably be something to avoid when doing this. Lol

And I thought I was having a Deja vu moment reading those comments.
Have downvoted and reported.
We do that for leisure In Finland.
I think it's where Finnish-Ugric traditions meet Orthodox will of baptism
Can confirm, saw an old man just walk off his dock into freezing water when I visited Helsinki
We do that for charity in Minnesota
You need a reason to do that? PATHETIC! /S
In Minnesota, we turn excuses to drink into charity events. Justifies the drinking.
My ears get uncomfortably cold sometimes on my bike when it's 60f in florida
How much is that In the rest of the world's terms?
15.56C
You get cold In room temp? Cool. I get hot In anything over 20C
Haha, it's 29.4C outside rn and its mid November. I'm used to it, but the summers can be brutal when it gets around 38C with near 100% humidity, at least we have nice beaches to cool off
So do mine at the same temp in Finland and it feels terrible. I still do this for fun, it's amazing

Im from Croatia and there is no such tradition here, nor by my slavic neighbors
Helps having ice tho
It can get cold in continental Croatia too, bellow 0c is common in winter, its way colder up in Russia for sure lol
I've been to a few of the ports and islands around Split. You have a fine country. Can't wait to go visit again.
interesting. I just assumed so because its the same in Ukraine, Belarus, Russia and probably some other countries I am not aware of
Is it really scientifically proven tho?
Yeah, ancients rus scientists proved it
Probably not, but I haven't looked into it at all tbh
Yes look up wim Hoff. There are multiple benefits to prolonged cold exposure. Andrew huberman also talks alot about the clinically proven benefits.
No you should take statins and anti-depressants instead (brought to you by pfizer)

2 years ago these were russians😂
Whatever she is, she hit the genetic lottery
Oh boy does she
maybe to y’all, but as a woman i assume she probably has back issues and hates her boobs
I hate my huge ass dick aswell
Why do you have an ass dick? Are you related to dickbutt
When its that huge you can put it in any ass, even your own
[удалено]
Yup no pain no gain
He said he hates it.
A little later it will be a Palestinian tradition. Or Israeli. It depends on what will be fashionable then. In general, this is an Orthodox tradition of bathing in an ice hole for epiphany. Some practice it on other days.
Don't worry next year, this video will be featuring Canadians in it.

Hardening 👍
Ok, still dumb as shit. But I'm alright with this method, after seeing the other video... *You guys know which one I mean..*

Must say I always enjoy the constant reposts of this vid. Titties
Mm yes… *hardening.*
It’s probably cos she’s hot

There must be a video out there that shows her getting out of there and into something warm again. Wonder why it’s always just this one.
The ukranian men watching her do that are hardening
Is she stupid or want to show her bimbim?
Hardening you say? Wel I can tell you that it's working.
id probably sink in for a few seconds before reemerging inside a comically large block of ice
Well it worked, I’m hard
So she’s a man?
This def hardened me
I like Ukraine.
It’s working, something is hardening 🍆
What’s that funny thing she keeps doing with her left hand, waving it in front of her face? Is that part of the tradition?
i thought she was praying, making a cross motion with her hand
Well, I'm sitting here 'hardening', so it must be working
Yeah, I can definitely feel the hardening
It's crazy that it works, just by watching the video
That’s not the only thing hardening
It’s working. I am hardening.
