First of all, the water temperature is 45 degrees, so that is a pretty big deal.

If all you can do is make snarky comments about this Brooklyn tradition you do not belong here. Fuck off please.

Personally I wouldn't mind if I got my teeth knocked out because hummus doesn't require much chewing.

7:41 got it 100% right. I have no idea why the hate for the polar bears. Most of these kids haven't gotten off their couch in a year and certainly don't have the nerve to go out to Coney Island and jump in the water on New Year's Day. What a bunch of pussies.

My favorite Brooklyn tradition is consuming hummus.
