Original Note:
The cold water can cause heart attack due to severe vasoconstriction, where the heart has to work harder to pump the same volume of blood throughout the arteries. This can in turn lead to a myocardial infarction and/or acute heart failure due to additional workload. https://web.archive.org/web/20131203000633/http://beyondcoldwaterbootcamp.com/4-phases-of-cold-water-immersion
