In Response To: Hypothermia (Tim Smith)
One of the sources of info that gets to me are the charts that show survival rates for different temperatures, without recognizing that the loss of functioning in the time necessary to effect a rescue will ensure that one stays in for the duration. Vertigo,gasp reflex,inhalation of water,numb hands all can keep a person in the water long before core temps begin to drop.
