A long time ago I was watching the Discovery Channel show Deadliest Catch and someone went overboard into the freezing waters. They successfully got him back onto the ship but instead of warming him up in a hot tub they had to wrap him up a bunch with towels and blankets. I recall the narrator mentioning they cant use warm water due to blood vessel issue, but when i try to google this I cant find anything about it. It was also so long ago that he probably explained more but I cant recall it.
Edit: Got my answer and lots of discussion on it as well! Thank you all i greatly appreciate it :D!
