I love how you begin this piece. There's a very similar event in Milwaukee and you do great job at capturing the spirit. all of you pieces have such a voice. I'm a big fan.
if you get a chance I'd love any feedback you might have on my pod: "a midwest oasis"

Well done, I live in NYC and have always been morbidly fascinated by these guys. Nicely done piece. Thanks for the window and thanks to CTV again and again.

Cool. There are also polar bear clubs around Lake Superior, but they only jump in once a year and they have to jump right back out...the air temp is usually below zero and the water is near freezing temp.

Love it.
Leave it to New Yorkers to not only do the bold thing, but to be able to explain it!

growing up in brooklyn and going to CI as a kid, I can appreciate this pod. The story of the Psycho Polar Bear Club is well told.
I've done it myself - the ice water is invigorating.
Nice work. Brooklyn represent.

Yeah, we color corrected most of the shots to make them more "cold" and sometimes just "strange" to evoke the feelings of "coldness" and thoughts like "what the hell are those guys doing?"
But this Sunday I am going to do it myslef. So, I will tell you what one feels when diving into freezing water :)
Iam preparing myslef for this experience by taking a cold showers three times a day. Almost mastered this one :) and already hate hot showers!

but forgot to add that i did find the fact that the colors of the images changed from part to part kinda distracting...is there a creative reason behind this that i didn't get??
but good job - 5 years ago

...and I am going to keep my promise! This Sunday I am leaving my camera at home and I am going to dive into the cold ocean. My girlfriend and filmmaking partner Kashka will shoot everything and we'll make a sequel :) and upload to the Studio!
It is going to be 40 F (water). Oh, well :)
