Creator's Key Takeaways

I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, this is a timehonored tradition, a polar plunge when you're on an expedition cruise in a polar space.

On the other hand, the water is 2 Celsius. It looks sunny and beautiful, but those are icebergs.

I think the key is you need a polar plunge, pal. Sarah's going to jump with me cuz first of all, you have moral support, and secondly, you can't back out.

I wish I had words, but I just have screams.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring a polar plunge pal for moral support and to prevent backing out.

There are some traditions you just can’t pass up—and the polar plunge is one of them! With the Arctic sun shining, icebergs floating nearby, and the water a bone-chilling 2°C, I had some serious mixed feelings about this adventure. But thanks to my polar plunge pal, Sarah, for the moral support, backing out wasn’t an option! 🥶🙌 We took the plunge while sailing aboard the luxurious Seabourn Venture, and it was an unforgettable, heart-pounding experience. Would I do it again? Absolutely!
