Dozens of brave souls donned their wackiest outfits and came out to the Eureka Waterfront this afternoon to raise money for the Redwood Discovery Museum by plunging into the frigid waters of Humboldt Bay.

This was the museum’s 21st annual Perilous Plunge, yet another weird event created by the people of Humboldt to raise money for a good cause. This year, the museum expanded the event to include folks from all over the world by hosting a “hybrid plunge” and encouraged participants unable to attend in-person to submit a creative plunge video.
