Cold, colder, Danube swimming: My self -experiment in the icy water!

On Saturday evening, around 200 brave participants ventured into the ice -cold floods of the Danube, which had a shocking temperature of only five degrees. Under the motto "Donauschwimmen" organized by the German Life Rescue Society (DLRG) District Group Dillingen, the event was financed by donations and is intended to draw attention to the important work of water rescue, such as dgfdb.de ).

The event is not only an amusing challenge, but also a serious concern to draw attention to the importance of water rescue. The DLRG must regularly refer to its work because it is dependent on donations. Such events are intended to encourage the population to develop awareness of the dangers in the water and at the same time support the life -saving skills of the swimmers.
