Rick on the Ice Road
--------------
----------------------------
A Finnish woman swims in a
frozen lake
to treat her broken leg.
When she jumps in,
I'm speechless.
After a downhill biking accident,
Johanna Nordblad thought
she might lose her leg.
Doctors had to leave the fracture open for 10 days to
avoid necrosis.
In a last ditch effort, to save the limb,
they tried a painful
cold water treatment.
That experience, eventually, led her to develop a passion
for swimming under frozen lakes, just holding her breath.
Today, she holds the
world-record for free diving 50-meters
under ice wearing only a wet suit.
