A Successful Wildwood Polar Plunge! (Drone Video)

A Successful Wildwood Polar Plunge 2017

The Wildwood water was a very cold 36.3 degrees when plungers took the waters in support of New Jersey’sSpecial Olympics. The annual event drew over a twelve hundred (1,200) people who braved the cold winter weather and almost freezing temperatures to support an amazing cause.

If you don’t know what theWildwood Polar Plunge is, it is a family-friendly event benefiting more than 25,000 athletes of the New JerseySpecial Olympicswhere plungers donate moneyto take a dip in the freezing waters.

As the numbers are still being counted, we are told that the event raised just aboutfour hundred thousand ($400,000) for the Special Olympics. It seems that every year more and more are turning out for theWildwood Polar Plunge.

This yearthere were so many awesome costumes and themes worn by the polar plungers. From Scottish costumes to a Hambresuits, (gorilla suit), everyone looked amazing!

We filmed theWildwood Polar Plunge via a drone to give you an bird’s eye view of the plungers jumping into the cold water! At-least you can watch it from your warm couch as they dive into almost freezing waters! (BELOW)

We also filmed the Wildwood Polar Plungers as they ran into the water from the side of the spectators.
