| Description: | “Ireland. Temperature ... No Object! Hardy swimmers brave rigor of the icy sea to hold annual Xmas swim.” Possibly Clontarf, Eire, Southern Ireland, Republic of Ireland. Swimmers dive in to outdoor pool. Crowds watch as the rather chilly looking swimmers get out after their dip. Two of the swimmers lift one of their colleagues shoulder high. More shots of swimmers making their way across the cold looking pool. Another swimmer is lifted by his colleagues. The male swimmers wear the type of bathing suit that has a suspender across one shoulder, like a Tarzan suit. (Similar to a polar bear club in the US.) | |
