That cold water plunges arc beneficial to the health is a fact which is unrefutable, but it requires a great amount of nerve force to pluck up the courage to plunge into cold water when the temperature is below zero. In this interesting picture we get a good idea of the force of energy and nerve of a man living in Moscow, Russia, who jumps into the water every day in the year, regardless of the temperature. We see him come down to the river in a sleigh and after the men have cut and removed enough ice to facilitate his task, he removes his clothing and takes his famous dip in the water where the ice is over a foot thick.
Original French title is undetermined.
Released in the US as a split reel along with A Heroic Father (1909).
