#1 This sounds a bit fishy to me. Forty minutes in water that cold? Assuming that the water temp was around 35-38 degrees (parts of the lakes are still frozen, so that makes sense) and being naked, he should have lost consciousness after about 10-15 minutes, and been dead in a half hour or less.

There's more to this than the story tells.
