More power to 'em.  However, at my age, I am cold enough just in my house.  I don't think I would ever do it, even 10 years ago it was not appealing!  Br-r-r-r

Taking a plunge into cold water has ZERO appeal to me.

I would never do that. But it's hilarious watching other people do it. All the more power to them!

I'm with the others that say it has zero appeal.  I will say, however, I wish I had the nerve.   If a group of friends were doing it I might try it so I could say I did it once in my life.  Fortunately I don't know any friends that are doing it.   ;D

I can't see myself doing it but I have some neighbors who do it to raise money for charity. I am a warm weather guy myself.
