    I'm sure the alcohol is an important factor for some in deciding to jump into freezing water.

    Just jump in. That'll get the blood flowing. A little sun and a few shots and you're good to go

    I'd imagine you'd see some major league headlamp pokers.

    If your shrinkage lasts more than 4 hours contact your doctor immediately.

    I'd eat 89 hot dogs at Nathans in 15 minutes before I'd dip a toe in the water in February.

    We should start a contest to come up with the strangest things that we think we could get dozens of random strangers to do in the name of public challenges.
