Sometimes it's for religious ceremonies, other times it's for being part of an healthy club. Sometimes it's to celebrate Christmas and other times for the New Year's Day. Sometimes they're just too drunk and sometimes it's just because it's getting more and more trendy.
Whatever would be the reason people are getting crazy with having freezing baths.
I feel cold just watching these photos. Enjoy this teeth-chattering gallery :
