Welcome to Alaska
P.T. Barnum was right, there IS a damn fool born every minute! Actually it is not as bizarre as it might seem. The air temperature was perhaps 42 degrees and the water about 39 degrees so it wasn't as brutal a shock going into the water as it is around here when the water is 60 but the air is 90. These guys splashed in (the water is only waist deep for a long way out) got wet and scurried out.
For their bravery they received a certificate declaring them official members of the Artic Polar Bear Club.
