Fish cluster at an ice hole, covered with thin pieces of ice, struggling for air in a pond in a park in St. Petersburg, Russia. As the long Russian winter drags on, fish in the ponds of St. Petersburg become increasingly desperate for oxygen, clustering in vast, thrashing masses at shrinking holes in the ice. Not only does ice block oxygen that could be diffused into the water from the air, but it also impedes sunlight from reaching oxygen-generating plants and algae in the water.

What is really freaky, is seeing the woman in the blue bathingsuit climbing into the water as if it were 85 deg out.

If there is not enough oxygen in the water, a fish will go to the surface and try to take in a bit of air with the water. The only thing the teens could have done short of a large air pump is to cut more holes in the ice.

Edit: Thanks for pointing out the type-o Ty

It's been snowing in Russia for millions of years - what seems to be the problem now?
Let me tell you something - that woman is climbing OUT of the water. Something happened down there, now the fish is just gulping fresh air. No? 03
