Thank you so much for this! My house backs onto a new built stormwater retention pond and I have been watching people “test “ the ice by throwing rocks at it, and even watched a few people venture onto the ice, despite the posted warning signs about thin ice. I am very concerned that someone’s going to fall through. As a result last week we bought a 50 foot rope and will be storing it in a small dry bag with a couple of emergency blankets just in case someone falls in and needs to be rescued. It’s been a couple of decades since I took any lifeguarding classes/learned about ice rescues so this is a good reminder.

And I love how you are " thinking ahead of time " that regards to others people's safety when they are testing and venturing in dangerous,unsafe and unpredictable world's bodies of waters that have thin ice surfaces,@carlyar5281!!!

First, experiment in summer by wearing winter clothes & boots & jump in a swimming pool. The weight of wet clothes will pull you down instantly. Once, I had to immediately jump in the deep end of a pool to save my 2 years old daughter from drowning while I was wearing a towel gown over swimming trunks. The weight of the wet gown dragged me down. Luckily the pool was only 7 feet deep so I walked under water to the edge, put my daughter on dry ground and then climbed the metal ladder to get out. Please advise what to do?

@JohnS-er7jh 8 месяцев назад

LOL. you beat me to the comment. they need to show to do it WITHOUT ice picks or other tools. They have a Dry Suit and insulated clothing on, so they should be able to perform the self rescue without tools. In a pinch, if you have car keys in pocket that might help (better then nothing at all).

@Eric-xh9ee 8 месяцев назад

I fell through the ice two days ago. I surprisingly didn't feel cold until I got out -- I think because of the adrenaline. It was -30c and I was really scared of drowning there or dying from hypothermia due to being wet. Everything was freezing immediately and restricting my movement. I thought the ice was thick but it broke and then I immediately fell into the mud and had troubles getting out. The water level was about a foot below the ice that broke free. I think the ice accumulated when the water level was higher then it fell which left about a 4 inch thick chunk of ice that just had air below it then water underneath that air gap. I'm glad I took off my boots as soon as I could since the laces were already frozen but I was able to pull them off the hooks.

@441rider 8 месяцев назад

Showing self rescue with the hand spikes and not explaining to carry them is bad. You need to float your legs with body if you cannot and look for exposed shore further down water body.

@CanadianSmoke 8 месяцев назад

Some great information here... but who carries a set of ice picks with them? The best defense? Stay off the ice.

@andrewsbbq 8 месяцев назад

Lots of winter activities take you out in ice. If a person avoided every risk in their life you can't really live. The first step is ensure iceis safe before going out, and monitor changes in ice structure (white vs blue), ice thickness, recent weather, etc. You comment as someone who doesn't know, and most don't, but people should educate themselves on how to enjoy frozen waterways. Same as learning to drive a car before you plan a road trip.

@CanadianSmoke 8 месяцев назад

@@andrewsbbq I know ice, I've seen the blue light on the other side of ice. My comment refers to people who are careless and reckless on the ice.

they left out the most important part, always make sure you have ice picks attached to cuff of jacket/shirt, to make sure you can pull yourself up onto the ice.

@rjcupid 8 месяцев назад

The best advice for me was to always roll away after getting out of the water, because I’m sure my first instinct would be to stand up. Also, putting your legs behind you in the water instead of below you is something I would not have thought of. Thanks!

@dawittucker8749 8 месяцев назад

The best way to prevent this is not walk on the ice that is clearly thin because the weather was either in the postive or around -5 this year so the ice is clearly to thin to walk on.

@Cosmic_Soul 8 месяцев назад

Just stay away from ice.

Try it in a snowmobile suit or insulated carharts. Instead of survival suits. I’ll bet you have less than 3 minutes in the cold water.

@kforest2745 8 месяцев назад

It’s best to prep by taking a class or doing it on your own with others with a rope tied to fall in intentionally so that the environment is first nature not surprise. That way when you fall in it’s like home you’re not panicking and your now the polar bear kinda thing. That’s how consciousness learns from its surroundings by making home. After all, what you are doing on the ice when you don’t know it you have no business being there.

And in my own personal opinion,And reading the Holy Word of God called our Holy Bibles as well as through prayer supplications,prayer requests and prayer petitions.And also attending Christian Sunday Worship Services will give total protection,total deliverance and total safety that will prevent people from all sorts,all types and all kinds of disasters,trials and adversities/adversity when venturing into unsafe,dangerous and unpredictable world's bodies of waters that have thin ice surfaces like lakes and rivers located here in our nation,country and state called Canada ( True North Strong and Free ).

@gregpineda8660 8 месяцев назад

And also,And our MOST HIGH GOD through our Lord Jesus Christ and our Lord Holy Spirit already announced,already declared and already revealed in HIS Holy Word called our Holy Bibles that says, " ( verse 11 ) --- For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.( verse 12 ) --- On their hands they will bear you up, so that you will not dash (meaning you will not stumble ) your foot against a stone. ( from our Old Testament Book of Psalm chapter 91 : verses 11 --- 12 ) And also considering and knowing that me and my family are considered to be dedicated,devoted and committed Baptist Evangelical Christians.
