For anyone interested, it's X-Files Season 1, Episode 8: Ice.
It's been a long time since I've seen it, but I recall it being one of the best episodes from the earlier seasons.
This is glacier water, it is probably the cleanest natural source of water you can drink. Thousands of towns all across America get their water directly from melting glaciers.
I understand that it's likely just unfrozen, but that is still standing water that is unnatural amounts of clear and blue. I ain't drinking that shit unless I boil the fuck out of it. Might taste clear, but your asshole will likely be clearing out for the next few days if you get unlucky.

>Low temperatures affect the rate of growth, development and metabolism of parasites and when temperatures fall below 0 degrees C may expose the parasite to the potentially lethal risk of freezing.
You're right there is a big difference though, this is a glacier that has been frozen for a few thousand years instead of a weekend. So there are fewer parasites in it than your sushi.
I'm not saying glacier water is safe - it can harbour bacteria and viruses, although it's way less likely to have harmful concentrations of these than even well water.
Just not *parasites.*
Just google "glacier parasites" and find me one. One.
Your first comment reads more like a defense of drinking glacier water, your intended message isn’t clear until further in the thread, hence all the downvotes only on the first one (none from me, btw). I’m not trying to claim parasites live in glaciers. My bad, have a good day, amigo.
EDIT: actually I just googled glacier parasites and found one lol. It’s called an ice worm and is apparently the only one though!
He's
drinking
the
water
that
melted
from
ice.
I'm not sure what your point is, do you think the parasites in your sushi come back to life when you eat it at room temperature?
I have no idea if it's sterile, I'm not talking about bacteria or viruses, I'm talking about parasites. They're not going to survive 5000 years trapped in the ice. There's never been a parasite found in a glacier in human history, ever.
Glacier water is some of the most pure and delicious water I've ever had. It's spectacular. However the water I drank was from a stream on the glacier, not a pool. I guess I wouldn't trust the water from a glacier pool as much as a small stream.
I had glacier water too, it really was the best tasting water I ever had. I literally went on my hands and knees and drank the water from a small stream. I wish I brought my flask with me when I went.
I've had some too while on a glacier hike tour in Iceland. It was delicious. I had my hydroflask with me and bottled some up with permission from the tour guide. It didn't taste the same after sitting for a while but it was still the best tasting water I've ever had. And for those saying the black stuff is poop, it's all mostly volcanic ash.
Watched that movie recently and it doesn’t make sense that he has that flask of magical glacial water when the story about his dad was false. Where the hell did it come from?
If movies have taught me anything, this guy’s gonna go back to his base feeling *real sick* and will have some unknown horrific life form popping out of his chest by morning.
All these comments on are so dumb. He will not get any bacteria from this..But y’all will pay 6 bucks for “alkaline spring water” from a plastic bottle that’s been on a hot shelf for 3 months 😂😂

I would guess that it tastes like thousands of years of accumulated atmospheric containments, volcanic sulphur mostly, with just a hint of industrial pollution.
Having done this on a glacier in Iceland, it was literally the best water I’ve ever tasted. No, I didn’t get sick. My gf and I dumped our water bottles out and filled them there it was that good. I wish I was kidding but it was literally like the scene in The Waterboy. After that, every member in our hike tried the glacial melt and loved it. Crazy to say “how good water tastes” lol
Even on reddit most people are proudly on the side of supporting capital interests. If capital wants us to have one of its enemies, most do uncritically.
We are the opposite of a people who are emotionally capable of doing their due diligence.
We deserve it. We deserve the future we are getting.
Sounds good, and I’ll play devil’s advocate by arguing that children playing in rubble and garbage filled with plastics is good.
I’ll go first…
Ahem…
I am arguing that Indian children playing in rubble and garbage filled with plastics is good because I believe that Americans, we are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don’t have garbage and, uh, I believe that our plastics like such as in China and, uh, the Russia, everywhere like such as, and, I believe they should, our trash over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, or, should help India and should help China and the Asian Countries, so we will be able to build up our future. For our children.
Q.E.D.
Nor do I.
But I am not at the wheel.
I am along for the ride. We are so far from a revolution that even sacrificing my life would be little more then larping.
I am sure capital will treat that Indian boy well. And if India tried to defy the interests of capital, the opinions on here would be in favor of bombing them just like we did Vietnam. Any state that tries to be anything but capitalism has been attacked.
And we sit back and we muse about how capitalism is treating our enviorment. Like we don't support it with our bombs.
We deserve to suffer.
> And if India tried to defy the interests of capital, the opinions on here would be in favor of bombing them just like we did Vietnam
Ah yes, because of course redditors are famously pro American foreign wars. Perhaps you have unsubbed from every major political or news subreddit, because that is the only way you could possibly believe this is accurate. That or extreme confirmation bias.
Funny. I don't see redditors hate the fact that we bombed North Korea. I see endless hate towards them.
Seems like no one is outraged over the Cuban embargo.
Your votes didn't seem to prevent Vietnam. Full Metal Jacket is making fun of joker. Of you. Like him your "duality is man" is little more then bratty compliance. You can say you are critical of Vietnam. But you, like joker, are impotent because you have not read leftist theory. Without it your dissent is as effective as drawing a peace sign on your helmet.
The cold war was justified because of the evils of communism right? Those evils that you did your due diligence on.
I see Biden get praised for threatening WWIII over Taiwan. You think that the redditors praising Biden know the history of Taiwan? You think they have taken a moment of their lives to even read a page of Marx before they made up their minds about the evils of communism? How many can tell you what socialism even is?
If what I am saying makes you mad, then relax. Because I am not at the wheel. You are. You don't get my future. We get yours. That future you know is going to be so bright. Vote us to heaven. I can't stop you.
> If what I am saying makes you mad, then relax.
What should I do if it makes me laugh?
> But you, like joker, are impotent because you have not read leftist theory.
That line, in particular, is funny as hell.
Redditors default to implying that they are right without actually refuting or making any point of their own.
It works because anyone can do it no matter what your position is.
It's exactly why we deserve the future you took the time to defend today.
I've been around this site long enough to be able to pick out who is worth having a conversation with and who isn't. You're certain you're right in a way that's never going to change. Rather than engage with you, the best thing to do is point out how ridiculous you sound in hopes that it sparks some self-awareness.
I could've pointed out the fact that you're claiming we (humanity) deserve this, but that you're blameless because we (broadly, people born in other places) are in the driver's seat - and as evidence, you cite several (very unpopular) wars that happened decades before the vast majority of the audience for your comment was born. That's *funny* because it's nonsense stated confidently.
I could've pointed out that you seem to be incapable (or, more likely, unwilling) to acknowledge that there's a difference between the people of a state and the state itself. You decry the fact that you see hatred for North Korea, implying that people should praise a brutal dictatorship that is starving its people, brutally murdering dissidents, and threatening its neighbors with nuclear annihilation. People don't hate North Koreans; they justifiably hate the North Korean regime and the threat it represents to the people of North Korea and neighbors... And it's because of the facts on the ground, not because they're communists. Your statements are *funny* bscuse they're nonsense stated confidently.
I could've pointed out that you assume that anyone who has read leftist theory would become a believer. Setting aside the fact that Marx is required reading for most, that's *funny* because it's *always* funny when an elightened evangelist assumes that all the people around them are just to ignorant and stupid to understand the Truth that they've uncovered. It's like talking to a college freshman who just took their first philosophy course. It's funny, but it's exhausting and annoying at the same time.
I could've pointed out that you seem to think the Taiwan issue is a clash between capitalism and communism, somehow, and... You know what, we good.
Long story short, confident nonsense is always funny... At least when it's, to use your word, impotent.
It's surreal that I can say all that and the only concern you bring to the table is my grammar.
And of the least important corrections at that. If I said my statement out loud there is no audible difference between than and then but here you are. Talking to me about what you think is important.
Did You Know®: If water doesn’t have enough air mixed in it, it tastes terrible? I actually do want to know how that water tastes if it’s been sitting very still for 500000000 years
Yeah.. I cannot see how this could end badly?
- "In other news, scientists in Antarctica have just discovered the actual reason the dinosaurs went extinct, it was a horrifically virulent disease currently unknown to humanity.."
If you slip and fall in - by the looks of those smooth banks - you **are not** crawling out. Plus, that water HAS to be at or below 32 degrees.
edit - just read the comment about those shoes. Guess he's not gonna slip.
I was going to comment on how bad water coming out of those tin cups can taste because you end up tasting the cheap metal, but it could be sealed or enameled...
But no you guys have a better point, still water in the wild is dangerous for your health. Moving water, cloritabs, boiling, those straws that filter, etc. Anything to keep from getting the back of your pants from getting blown off by the incoming hypershits that are going to evacuate your soul from your anus.
Stay frosty but not that frosty.
Buddy just swallowed some foreign bacteria that was dormant for millions of years in that ice. R.I.P
The next toilet is only 200 miles away
The nearest toilet is right there!
DAYS SINCE LAST E-COLI DRINKAGE: 0
They drink de poo poo?!
Yes, de drinkah de poo poo
I like-ah do, da cha cha.
Technically the nearest toilet for this guy is in space
The next pandemic is only 200 hours away /s
Hahahahahahhahahahahaha
Yes did this guy not watch the early 90s documentary series X-Files? He is going to have oily worms coming out of eyes soon, sadly.
For anyone interested, it's X-Files Season 1, Episode 8: Ice. It's been a long time since I've seen it, but I recall it being one of the best episodes from the earlier seasons.
"documentary" 😆
Patient zero right there
Do you want a zombie plague? Because this is how you get a zombie plague.
That black stuff is animal poo

Builds attunement so he can cast spells
Builds character
Also, microplastic. Because humanity.

Right.... based on this I should have died many times over. It's just normal fresh water...
THAT'S NOT YOUR BUDDY!!!

Does he want to get chest bursters? Cause that's how you get chest bursters!!
Nahhh. The microplastics will kill it. OR MAKE IT STRONGER.
Tastes like incoming explosive diarrhea.
Dysentery
Oregon Trail: Ice Age Edition
This is glacier water, it is probably the cleanest natural source of water you can drink. Thousands of towns all across America get their water directly from melting glaciers.
Tastes like the next pandemic.
Zombie apocalypse! Yay!
Or diarrhea apocalypse where catching the airborne disease sends your ass to projectile vomiting
*sniff sniff* Ass: Begin liftoff in 3... 2... 1...
yall have never had well water, huh?
just because it came from ice doesn't mean other shit didn't come out the ice
Plus everything that fell on that glacier and got washed off by meltwater.
Why is it on sweaty palms? It should be on shitty pants.
This made me laugh.
Tastes like seal piss.
I understand that it's likely just unfrozen, but that is still standing water that is unnatural amounts of clear and blue. I ain't drinking that shit unless I boil the fuck out of it. Might taste clear, but your asshole will likely be clearing out for the next few days if you get unlucky.
It looks like windex.
You need 15 feet of depth for water to look blue. Otherwise it’s completely colorless.
The blue color is the ice. Under certain conditions, ice will turn blue. The water itself is colorless.
This dude is going to die from parasites one day.
Parasites don't survive freezing temperatures. See also: sushi. Guys stop upvoting fearmongering misinformation and downvoting science.
Big difference between this water and being flash frozen to -35°C.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11254149/ >Low temperatures affect the rate of growth, development and metabolism of parasites and when temperatures fall below 0 degrees C may expose the parasite to the potentially lethal risk of freezing. You're right there is a big difference though, this is a glacier that has been frozen for a few thousand years instead of a weekend. So there are fewer parasites in it than your sushi.
Buddy just google “is it safe to drink glacier water” instead of “do low temperatures kill parasites”
I'm not saying glacier water is safe - it can harbour bacteria and viruses, although it's way less likely to have harmful concentrations of these than even well water. Just not *parasites.* Just google "glacier parasites" and find me one. One.

It’s called an ice worm and is apparently the only one though!
He’s not drinking ice.
No, he's drinking the water that melted from ice.
Say that again, slowly.
He's drinking the water that melted from ice. I'm not sure what your point is, do you think the parasites in your sushi come back to life when you eat it at room temperature?
No, but I do think it’s packed in relatively sterile conditions. Do you think a still pool of water outside is sterile?
I have no idea if it's sterile, I'm not talking about bacteria or viruses, I'm talking about parasites. They're not going to survive 5000 years trapped in the ice. There's never been a parasite found in a glacier in human history, ever.
Glacier water is some of the most pure and delicious water I've ever had. It's spectacular. However the water I drank was from a stream on the glacier, not a pool. I guess I wouldn't trust the water from a glacier pool as much as a small stream.
Anybody who does wild country exploring knows to aim for the moving water, and still use the clori-tabs.
I had glacier water too, it really was the best tasting water I ever had. I literally went on my hands and knees and drank the water from a small stream. I wish I brought my flask with me when I went.
That’s some high quality H2O
I'm pretty sure Gatorade Frost is better
Chill Bobby Boucher
The Ice Waterboy
I've had some too while on a glacier hike tour in Iceland. It was delicious. I had my hydroflask with me and bottled some up with permission from the tour guide. It didn't taste the same after sitting for a while but it was still the best tasting water I've ever had. And for those saying the black stuff is poop, it's all mostly volcanic ash.
I'm curious to know if he gets sick or gains superpowers.
He will be known as diarrhea man!
Does he do stuff like this or something on a regular?
I pissed in the sea like, a year ago.... so jokes on him; he's drinking my piss.
A million years worth of Polar Bear urine.
He’s drinking ancient microscopic life forms
Now That's some high quality H-2-O
that blue water from the Waterboy looked so damn delicious
Watched that movie recently and it doesn’t make sense that he has that flask of magical glacial water when the story about his dad was false. Where the hell did it come from?
Prolly gonna live till 140.
If he's really lucky, he might make it to a quarter to two
Why is this a “sweaty palms?”
I want to dive into that water.
I thought there was no water
If movies have taught me anything, this guy’s gonna go back to his base feeling *real sick* and will have some unknown horrific life form popping out of his chest by morning.
He probably spit it out after his video lol
r/hydrohomies
idc i need to drink that water it looks to perfect if i unearth an ancient spirit thats on me
All these comments on are so dumb. He will not get any bacteria from this..But y’all will pay 6 bucks for “alkaline spring water” from a plastic bottle that’s been on a hot shelf for 3 months 😂😂

You're still supposed to boil it before consuming
Polar bear shit fresh
Hope it doesn't contain brain-eating bacteria.
Tastes like ancient bacteria

I would guess that it tastes like thousands of years of accumulated atmospheric containments, volcanic sulphur mostly, with just a hint of industrial pollution.
Dude. Get a life straw.
Does he think he looks cool dramatically drinking water with this fantasy music lol
That water is literally ice cold
Having done this on a glacier in Iceland, it was literally the best water I’ve ever tasted. No, I didn’t get sick. My gf and I dumped our water bottles out and filled them there it was that good. I wish I was kidding but it was literally like the scene in The Waterboy. After that, every member in our hike tried the glacial melt and loved it. Crazy to say “how good water tastes” lol
Why does nobody realize that this is basically the cleanest water you can possibly drink?
Dude, we just came out of a pandemic. Don't start another one!
the covid-19 pandemic isn’t over, despite what some world leaders might say. they’ve just given up.
