T-Shirts and shorts on a glacier? That's not something you'd see on Svalbard

The coldest single thing I've ever done which didn't include getting progressively colder over a very long period of time was jumping in the sea up at the north polar ice sheet. We were standing on sea ice at about 80,5 degrees latitude and the water had a sub-zero temperature. I really didn't want to do it, but then my girlfriend said she'd do it .. of course I had to go before she did.

In the end, I got a warm shower and a diploma though, so all in all it wasn't too bad.
