A person can experience symptoms of Hypothermia in varying water temperatures along with varying ranges of time (factors that make a person more or less susceptible to Hypothermia include overall health and age); it is possible for symptoms of Hypothermia to be experienced in water which had temperatures below eighty degrees Fahrenheit. Numbness in some body parts, such as limbs, can be experienced even in mild cases of Hypothermia, when body temperature can be between 97 and 93 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cold slows the rate of metabolic reactions in the body (e.g. pulse, digestion, etc.). When jumping into cold water, the heart rate can slow to a dangerous level while having to pump harder to keep the body warm. The body knows what is dangerous and sends signals to the brain when something could jeopardize safety. Jumping into cold water would cause the same amount of fear as boiling water.
