You may have seen a now-viral TikTok video of white man swimming under a sheet of ice in a frozen lake.
We don’t know why he did it, but Jason Clark (aka @JasonToDoList) took to Instagram to explain how the stunt almost cost him his life.
“I have never been this close to dying,” he wrote before explaining how the ice water impacted his body.
“I didn’t think my eyeballs would freeze so quick. The surface of the water where the hole was didn’t look any different than the bottom of the ice. When I flipped around and felt solid ice I thought I was at the hole,” he continued. “I was so short on breath I couldn’t really see anymore. I had accepted that was it and I wasn’t going to make it. I swung my hand at what I thought was just a lighter spot of ice and my hand came through. I then got a ton of energy to stand up. It took 2-3 breaths to regain my vision after resurfacing.”
You would think once was enough, but his dumb ass he decided to pull the stunt again for another video — albeit with a bigger hole.
