I found the kicking of the legs to help get your upper body a few inches onto the ice the most important part. I have been in freezing water before but never by accident and never through the ice. I used to go ice skating as a kid on farm ponds all the time. If the ice made cracking sounds when walking on it we would not go. Very scientific test.

In my experience, people who fall through the ice do not spread their arms to prevent falling all the way through. They end up under the ice, and then can't find the hole they fell through. Once you've gone under, you are close to being screwed. If you have the presence of mind to spread your arms in the first place, you might be able to make it. Also, the weather had to be relatively warm where this was done. It always seemed like the temps were below zero when this happened around where I lived. Smaller margin for error. -- bp part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com On Sun, Jan 20, 2019 at 8:56 AM Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com> wrote: https://www.youtube.com/embed/VUsnmGXJ70E -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
