  1. nah.. it wouldn't.. but who on earth would want to do that?


  2. Why would you want to do that? Is it really hot where you are?

    You'd get really cold, and get sick.. because of the sudden change of temperature your body feels. Because your body is warm, then will get shocked from the ice cold water, then get used to it.. Then when you get out and dry yourself you'll be warm again.. You'll get sick that way..  

  3. Stop asking these self loathing questions on here...If you really wanted to to do harm to yourself, you would of all ready done it, sometimes life is just really hard for everyone, not just you....

  4. You could not get in the bath if it was ice cold because its ice. On the other hand near ice cold water would make you unconscious and your body functions terminate depending on how long your were in the bath.

  5. Probably not - it just beggars the question:

    Why would you want to?

  6. Maybe. It depends on how long you are immersed in the ice-cold near freezing water. On the series Deadliest Catch on the Discovery Channel, about crab fishermen in the Bering Sea, without a survival suit, the estimated survival time in the open ocean was as low as 5 minutes until your core temperature was too low to sustain your life, though some have survived from slightly longer periods, several more minutes, with extraordinary efforts. Sea water will go as low as 28 degrees F without freezing because of the salt content. Fresh bath water freezes at 32 degrees F. They say hypothermia, dying from the cold, is one of the less painful ways to go. There is some initial shivering which can get severe, some intense shooting pains from the cold, then you get numb, stop shivering, lose consciousness and die shortly thereafter when your heart stops....

  7. No it wouldn't if you want to do it go for it

  8. get a physical check up first as yes in some cases it can

  10. No you would not die, even if you stayed in it for a while as the water would warm to room temperature

  11. no way!

    all athlets have baths with ice in everday!

    its good for u

    hoped this helped

  12. Nope.  Although it could start pulling your body's core temp. down if you stay in there too long, with a constant application of ice.  But if you were just taking a 'bath', then you shouldn't have any problems.
