In this family vlog, a parent (Speaker A) and his two young sons, Max and Ollie, undertake an ice bath challenge prompted by the kids. The video opens with the kids demanding the dad join them in a tub filled with five 5‑kilogram bags of ice. The participants joke about a prize of ten cents, parodying MrBeast’s extravagant giveaways. Throughout the challenge, the children and dad exchange playful banter, express discomfort (“my feet are freezing,” “my balls are freezing”), and occasionally swear with the dad’s permission. The dad provides brief safety commentary (e.g., putting both feet in first) and mentions prior experience with ice challenges. The kids attempt various stunts, such as dunking their heads and keeping legs straight, while the dad struggles with the cold. The segment includes typical YouTube calls to action—asking viewers to comment, like, subscribe, and ring the notification bell. The vlog concludes with the participants declaring the ice itself the winner, encouraging viewers to comment on who they think won, and ending with a light‑hearted sign‑off. The overall tone is informal, comedic, and family‑friendly, with occasional mild profanity and a focus on entertaining the audience while lightly touching on the health benefits of cold exposure.
Chapters
What is up? I'm with my two little kids. We are going to be doing the ice bath challenge and see how long these little ones can stay in. The pressure's on me because they're watching how long I stay in.
Max, No, I win! I've been in the bong for all of the winter!
Not competitive at all, so we'll see who actually stays in. So we have 5, 5 kilo bags of ice. Stay tuned to the end to see who wins.
That is a tonne load of ice. Just saying, my dad should have shouted me out for doing all this filming.
All right, so the ice bath challenge with my two little sons. We've got—
I did not want to plan doing this. How? This is too cold. I don't even want to do this.
Well, you said to me you did want to do this.
I want to do this. I never went in a cold shower.
Put both feet in. It'll be more safe to put both feet in. How long are you out? Oh, you're in there. You want to sit down?
No. The little iceberg. It's the big iceberg. Why? Everybody comment down below if you think that would be a mini iceberg. Yeah, this, this, this is going to be hard considering that my body is going to be in there. Like, my foot feels like it's numb right now.
Like, it's all I need is excuses.
Dad, I'm not making excuses.
Well, get in there.
Come on, please.
Stop holding on to the glass.
There you go.
Without the antics. Come on. There he is. Look at the face of cold. I just want to remind everyone that it was Max's idea to do the ice bath. Hey, hey, where are you going, little fella?
Did that tell you that whoever wins is gonna get a bit of money?
10 cents.
What? Don't you mean 10K?
No, 10 cents. This is the opposite of MrBeast's channel.
Can I please have permission to swear?
You can swear.
This is fucking cold! Ah!
Alright, we've been spinning for a little while now. You can hop out anytime you want.
Oh, I'm too big for my legs to be completely straight.
That's true. Flex this. Straight. Dad, if I can do it, you should do it.
Oh man, this is cold. My balls are freezing.
They make it even colder. Are you gonna put your hands in or not?
Oh, my hands are in.
Okay, don't be a wimp.
Oh God, I can't be a wimp because my kids are watching. Ah, this is the worst challenge ever because my kids are watching and I can't fail.
Guys, what time am I up to?
Please tell me.
1 minute. Get out, get out, get out, get out!
Move out the way, Ollie!
Move out the way, guys! We should add a Super Saiyan effect in here.
Oh, they still filming? Yep, I've done ice challenges before, but I think laying my legs straight the way it is, my feet can't move, so it gets colder so much faster. All right, we're gonna go outside and dance outside in the warmth.
Are you serious? Yes, it's following your dad's footsteps. Let's get some more water in there. Okay, I'm ready. All right, let's go.
So my kids want me to dunk my head in here because I'm a fairly big large man, so this is going to be a little bit difficult.
But just dunk your face, that's what I did. It's still very hot. I just—
for an ice bath, this is extremely cold. It's one of the coldest ice baths I've had. All right, ready kids? Yeah.
Jesus, let's go!
All right, kiddo, get on your knees, get on your knees. All right, are you done? Yeah, is that good?
I'm done with the ice bath.
He's done, he's done.
It's my turn. The ice bath is slowly cooling off. Anyway, let's go. My feet feel like they're numb, but I'm still doing it because why not? Yeah, boy!
What does he need to do, Ollie?
He needs to control it.
All right, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, done.
All righty, so is this a bad challenge or a good challenge?
I think it's a challenge.
Okay guys, I'm getting in. Are you filming?
I'm filming.
Oh, Daddy, I think this is a good idea.
Well, it's an idea.
It's an idea! The best dad joke of 2024. I don't have limits. Excuse me.
Language, language. I'm here to tell you right now, we don't care. Let me tell— let me tell you, we don't care. Do anything else, mate?
Yes, my face is dying. Do not do Don't do this at home. Wait, we are at home. Just don't do this at all! And it's good for your body because cold showers is good, so it's technically good for you. This is a cold ball. Cold showers are good for you and this is a cold ball, so that means it's technically good for you.
Yes.
Calming the eyes. Do not do this.
Kids wanted me to dunk my head again for the second time.
Cuz we did it.
And this is, this is seriously cold, kids. Seriously cold. Rock and roll!
Can I dunk my head for the burn one more?
Nope, we are done. Yes, we are done, done, done, done, done. No, done. Absolutely done. Little kiddo dancing. So that was the ice bath challenge. How'd you go, kiddos? What'd you think of it, Ollie? And what do you think? We can't see you. What do you think, Maxie?
Don't do this. It's fun, but don't do this. You'll feel like your feet are going numb.
Yeah, my feet feel like they're going numb too. What about you, little kiddo? What about you?
You want to feel like it's numb, it doesn't matter.
Well, who do you think, who do you think the winner is? Me.
That feels fuzzy. I reckon I think the winner was me.
Me. No, I reckon me. Me.
No, I don't think—
Well, I think the real winner here is ice, ice baby.
Baby? Why?
Because you're a baby?
