This brave guy was kind enough to demonstrate how to survive falling through the ice of a frozen lake. In the video below he outlines 3 different methods to get out alive. Although, the last one requires the assistance of the local fire department and won’t be of much help in the wild.
A few things to keep in mind.
- Don’t try this at home!
- These are somewhat ideal circumstances, in that the hole was intentionally made through a thick sheet of ice. In reality, ice often breaks in the process of getting out.
- Breathing is important! This is a topic for another day, but if you want to learn more, research “The Ice Man”, Wim Hof. He was able to do a marathon above the arctic circle in just a pair of shorts (and no shoes) using his breathing technique.

great information to know even though it doesn’t get cold enough here to be an issue the majority of the time.
Here’s some helpful hints as well for the aftermath. Rescue and First Responders are beginning to catch on to this finally. Keep a tincture of Cayenne with you in a first aid kit or in an emergency vehicle. Cayenne stops and reverses hypothermia in a matter of a very few minutes. It warms the body faster by directing blood flow evenly throughout the body. This is why it also stops bleeding (internal and external,) prevents and pulls someone out of shock, and stops a heart attack in 30 seconds. GREAT STUFF! One can use the powder as well mixed in some water. Yes, this is the same stuff you can get at the grocery store.
Well done! Very informative video. Can’t believe you jumped in 3 times in all! Thanks for making t his video.
