I from Siberia and I know that is not cold. In the last winter we have – 51 C ( centigrade degree) – this  is cold))) But we think that is not extreme because it is normal for us.

"super-shrinkage", that's hilarious.  

3° degrees Celsius is really cold, if I'd stay in a weather like that with just a T-shirt and a short, I would get a throat infection, let alone jumping in a freezing river.

Jason and the guy holding a camera must be on dope to do that.
