This would have been an incredibly awesome idea if it had worked.

Oh well.

An aggressively bad idea.

Respect the ice, people. You don’t last for long in water that cold.

Floating saunas are ok, but for very obvious reasons don’t build them on ice

Floating, fixed water accommodation with hot water air from steam which is exclusively for relaxation and absolutely safe.

I feel nerd sniped.

Tbf, on the scale of bad ideas, this is a pretty good one
