[quote]"The water came in pretty quickly and pretty heavily and once we realised, Steve (the pub's owner) drove off to get some sandbags," the manager of the Kirkstall Bridge Inn tells Newsbeat.
"I stood and shouted at the water but it didn't seem to do much.
"Then we realised it wasn't getting any higher and the damage had already been done, so we decided we might as well sit in the beer garden anyway and have a pint," said John.[/quote]

"It was remarkably cold. The first 15 minutes were a little bit uncomfortable but once we settled down it was surprisingly therapeutic, to sit not just [I]by the river but [I]in the river.[/I][/I]
I respect the way he rationalized the issue.
The levels of Britishness here are off the sodding charts...
"I stood and shouted against the water".
Amazing, like I can imagine some british guy screaming at water "GO AWAY WATER"

Not surprising how retarded people will act in the name of alcohol especially around here.

To be fair it was produced for Channel 4 by a British production company, it just had an Irish cast and crew. How you didn't catch the Irish accents though...

Not retarded, just showing their dominance of the water, like the British Navy did for so many years.

Yeah, You should try swimming in winter it's very good. Your body adapts to the cool fairly quickly and you begin to warm up.

[QUOTE=Kwigg;49135723]I imagine you do once you're in the ambulance for severe hypothermia.[/QUOTE]
I don't know i use to do that almost every year in winter, i mean naturally you would take a hotshower after but it was perfectly fine.
They ARE TRUE BRITISH MEN/WOMAN there
this is Yorkshire for you and I can confirm we do things like this as natural as going to the pub
Makes you proud to be British
Least it's easy to take a leak.
I mean you're bottom half in under water and your pants and underwear are already wet so...
