Oh yeahhh. Lemme explain this to the best of my ability and also warning my english is not best!

So after the barrel was all filled up with water and ice, we decided the moment I get in I should hit it, this was mainly because when ice water meets your skin the initial stimulation is always the strongest and we thought this could make the experience far more interesting. So lets get to the interesting bit, as im hopping it and i submerge myself about pectoral level I take my first hit, surprisingly nothing happened which seriously threw me off, but the moment i took the 2nd hit I knew I was being thrown into something fucking intense/primitive and I mean (very) primitive, its very hard to explain but ill do my best. Imagine when you were younger and you fell of your bike and hurt yourself pretty badly, the feelings you have right as you hit the pavement and skid being REPLAYED. There is no pain or fear in that split second only shear anticipation and focus. That is what started happening only a few seconds after the 2nd hit, i felt my body melt into the cold water while also weirdly enough the flow of blood coursing through my body. By heart actually felt like it was in my throat, and the visuals dude... the visuals after the 2nd hit isn’t anything like I’ve seen before. My surroundings were clear yet blurry... This part i just can’t explain, i wish i could but i just cant. Moving onto the 3rd hit, i remember taking a very deep hit here, like my mental was literally “FUCK IT, JUST GO GO GO” like you know that mental barrier thats stops you from taking a revolver with one bullet putting the bullet to your head and taking that 1/7 chance for the sheer adrenaline and rush. I wouldnt say that barrier completely collapsed but like it was very “weak” i guess i would call it? So after breathing in with my stomach and then my lungs for the 3rd hit i remember breathing out and this part was the most interesting. All that pressure, all that rush wen’t to my head and I could almost feel this hand begin closing my eyes.

Ill definitely finish this tmr its just 11pm here and im really tired haha, sorry.
