On our recent visit to Rhode Island for New Years weekend, most things were closed. As desperate as we were to find something to do, we heard about this Polar Bear activity open to the public once a year on new years day for about 5 minutes. People who participate skim down to a bathing suit and jump into the ocean.
I decided to record this activity documentary style as you’ll see by the video below:

*note* – bikini warning. i didn’t expect anyone to actually do this, much less a woman – so be cautious of the bikini in the video.
*note2* – the temperature was literally ZERO and my fingers were completely numb, so i apologize for the shaky camera.
