Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make! Would you rather have a third arm that's only useful for picking your nose, or be able to talk to animals but only if they're wearing hats? Yeah, it's that kind of vibe. Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

Sounds kind of easy with the thermal suit involved

Even without it, you can survive 30 seconds in the biting cold easily.

Honestly seeing a new part of the sea every day could be fun.

Hmm, flat and wet today. Cool.

Wow, flat and wet again.

Flat and wet.

A little choppy and also wet.

Flat and wet again.

Is that land in the distance!?! Nope, floating bird.

Flat. Wet.

I could handle that for 30 seconds a day.

I finally participated in weekly (more or less) winter bathing last year, and even if I stopped, it still was an interesting experience. And I wasn't even paid.
The coldest was 2.5C water and -8C air, and it was painful. Anything over 6 is more or less manageable. And you get a "ohhh, the water is goood" perk for the summer. I mean, for days when water is not actually good, but you've had worse so you enjoy it:)
