Daily Leap into Cold Water
Since the summer of 2022, Wigald Boning has maintained an extreme hobby. Regardless of the season, wind, or weather, he goes bathing outdoors every day. His wet adventures have already led him to a wide variety of waters: he has dived into ice holes, swam in crystal-clear mountain lakes, crossed muddy ponds, and even bathed in the River Thames in London on so-called “Coronation Day.” Even encounters with swans and cargo ship captains did not deter him from his daily ritual.
Humorous Presentation about a Damp Hobby
After his first performance on this topic in Plauen, Saxony, was completely sold out in early 2026, Boning is now bringing his experience report to the Thuringian university city. The audience in Jena can look forward to an entertaining summary of his athletic endeavors.
The entertainer also shares curious advice and practical tips for potential imitators. He explains how to defy the cold during winter bathing, the peculiarities of swimming in rain retention basins at German airports, and answers the ultimate question: Why go bathing every day for years on end? Whether it makes one beautiful or at least brings joy will be discussed this evening at the F-Haus.
Background on the Venue
The F-Haus at Johannisplatz is one of the central culture and party locations in Jena. The historic building, located near the traditional Wagnergasse and the Jentower, regularly provides space for live concerts, comedy shows, and student parties. Since there are hardly any public parking spaces directly at Johannisplatz, visitors are strongly advised to arrive by public transport. The central tram stops Stadtzentrum/Holzmarkt and Ernst-Abbe-Platz are only a few minutes’ walk away. Those arriving by car can use the nearby multi-story parking garages in the city center.
