"I have never been this close to dying," he wrote in the caption of the horrifying video. “ I didn’t think my eyeballs would freeze so quick. The surface of the water where the hole was didn’t look any different than the bottom of the ice”, he added. He is trapped under ice sheets He is speaking about the moment in the video when he struggles to spot some opening on the ice sheet to get out. He can even be seen hitting the sheet hard to make a crack in order to escape out of the freezing water.
