Then again, Hugh had just tweeted something to send his loyal fans into a frenzy that wasn’t just because of the cold. The actor posted a one-word tweet-“And 🥶” alongside a clip of him taking what appeared to be a REALLY cold dip. No context, no explanation, just pure chaos that could only ever emanate from Hugh. And, of course, there were replies from people who very much lost it.

Firstly, it was so random. The guy’s mid-flight selfie was like, ‘Normal Tuesday, dude, right?’ Meanwhile, the Internet was collectively shuddering just watching it. Some replies were super worried, such as Nadine Acosta’s inquiry, ”Is the water cold?! 🥶’, as if the icy emoji wasn’t enough of a clue. Then Patrick Jenkins painted the obvious with, ‘That lake’s gotta be super cold!’ No kidding, Sherlock.
But those were the real gems? Those who took it as an opportunity to roast Hugh and make jokes. Christopher Bradley tagged in with the ultimate dad joke: ‘Don’t break your hip. Hahaha, of course if you did, you’d heal in seconds. Right, Logan? Talk about a low blow, referencing Wolverine healing, but fair.’ Meanwhile, Jim Moore worked the Aussie angle and asked, ‘Saltwater crocs in the area?’ because nothing says ‘relaxing swim’ like a potential death by reptile scenario there.
And then another terribly poetic chaotic response by Maria Jackman-yup, another someone called Jackman. Wrapped a whole melodramatic verse on it: ”It was just yesterday I was a kid dreaming to be a superhero….” and wrapping it all up with ‘Hugh, love you 😍😚.’ Like… ma’am, this is a Wendy’s.
And let’s not forget the one who asked for a backflip (‘Yuuuhh do a back flip’-glossyy.Kay) because why not? If you’re freezing yourself for the internet anyway, you might as well go all out.
The funniest part? Hugh’s done this before. Dawn had receipts, providing an old tweet with him doing the same, captioned, ‘He’s done this before.’ Of course! Because Hugh Jackman thrives on chaos.
So, what’s the learning? Possibly Hugh is secretly prepping himself for some kind of extreme competition incorporating all kinds of hard winter sports, or he simply enjoys watching us all go through our secondhand chills. Either way, we glow. Frankly, if we had Wolverine’s healing factors, we would most probably be doing the same, but, you know, in view of everything else.
