The Boot Campers of Cold Water Boot Camp USA dive in and experience the three effects of cold-water immersion – cold shock, cold incapacitation, and even hypothermia. The project provides valuable information of how to survive an accidental fall into cold water. The demonstration forces the Boot Campers to face the indisputable fact – that the difference between becoming a statistic and a survivor – is wearing a life jacket!
