Nothing seems impossible for a trio of Russian ice swimming enthusiasts who put up an artificial fir tree on the bottom of the world's deepest lake to celebrate the country's holiday. The tree was installed near the shore, at the depth of some 3 meters, after the swimmers cut a hole in the thick ice. They said the water temperature of just above 0 degrees Celsius and an icy wind did not deter them.
Amsterdam residents enjoyed the city's frozen canals over the weekend, even ice skating on their surface for the first time in years. The 'Beast from the East,' a massive cold front originating from Siberia that brought blizzards and freezing temperatures to much of Europe, had a silver lining. The subzero temperatures froze parts of Amsterdam's iconic Prinsengracht and Keizersgracht canals hard enough to support ice skaters.
Video courtesy of the Shendiac Fire Department show the moment when firefighters came to the rescue of an adventurous moose from a frozen river in New Brunswick on Saturday, after the animal skated out on to thin ice and got trapped in the freezing waters after breaking through the river’s surface. Half a dozen volunteer firefighters pulled the moose from Shediac River after its near-death experience.
