I'm seeing a lot of photos of people wearing bathing suits out in the snow and ice, right now. And I just read a reference to the Polar Bear Club. This all brings up this question:
Which temperature extreme are you more comfortable with? Can you withstand cold or heat better?
I hate, hate, hate the cold. It's downright painful. I can live with 90+ degrees (32C), even in this area where the humidity reaches 212%. If I don't have to look presentable -- like at work -- I don't mind sweating. I even run/jog outside in the height of summer.
Below 50 degrees (10C), I'm uncomfortable. Below 40 degrees (4C) and I'm in pain. Below 30 degrees (-1C) (like this week), dear God, this is inhuman torture. I avoid going outside as much as I can during winter months.
Seeing the Polar Bear Club stuff, I think I would literally die if pushed into water in freezing temps.
