Another one makes the list

From time to time I have used this blog to share with you some items that are on my list of things I will never do.  Such activities as sky diving, bungee jumping and performing dental surgery on myself have all made the list.  Today, after a news report, I have added another activity to the list.  I have absolutely no desire to, and will never, swim under the ice anywhere.  A 50 year old gentleman from somewhere in Europe evidently thinks this keeps him young.  The clip I saw showed him climbing into the water of some unnamed lake through a hole in the ice, then swimming along a rope strung under the water, and coming up out of the water through a hole at the other end of his swim.  I've just realized I can add another item to my list.  I will never dive under the ice to film someone else swimming under the ice.  This guy makes polar plungers look like wimps.  Personally I think swimming should only be done in a heated pool, preferably on the top deck of a cruise ship.
