Livvy Dunne is putting her gymnastics training to good use. The gymnast rang in the festive spirit in a method that was completely unexpected and unconventional as compared to the others. Wearing a skimpy red bikini, the Louisiana State University (LSU) graduate took a plunge into an ocean amidst the chilly winter weather. What prompted her to take this up one may never know, especially when she confessed to having an aversion to cold. However, in true gymnast fashion, it did not deter her from trying.
Livvy Dunne takes a plunge in the middle of winter donning a bikini
A few days ago, Livvy Dunne embraced the year-end season on TikTok documenting her taking a cold plunge in the middle of the water while donning a bikini. She captioned the video, “I hate the cold.” However, this did not stop her from taking a daring plunge into the ocean. The video began with the gymnast pacing on the shore due to the chilly winter before removing her black jacket to reveal her red bikini. She handed the jacket to someone before running barefoot into the ocean.
Livvy Dunne then took the cold plunge, dipping her entire body into the ocean before running out onto the sand. She was visibly chilly, drenched from top to bottom, as she beamingly greeted who appeared to be Roux, the golden retriever. While drying her blonde tresses, which she had kept open, the gymnast wrapped herself with a small towel to calm the body’s cold shock response. By the end of the video, she walked back with the towel in her hand, marking an end to this daring adventure.
Joining in on the festive spirit, the gymnast set the background music to Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.” Meanwhile, the TikTok video went viral among her over 8 million followers. As of this writing, Livvy Dunne’s cold plunge has already generated 2.2 million views. Fans took to the comments section to praise her for braving the cold and taking the plunge. A few others called it the perfect gift for the holiday season.
