I'm trying to work out why you're quoting this. It was wet and cold. Are you suggesting he should not have put it back on? In those conditions, not wearing a survival suit is tantamount to suicide. Are you suggesting he dry it out first? Well (a) it would take too long, and (b), how?

So what are you saying? Have I missed something?

  My question is - why did not he take off his life suite as 
  soon as he get out of the water? Since t was filled with 
  water, having it on your body will only increase effect of 
  freezing, no?
^ he posted this, he is wondering why he didn't keep it off. And yeah, he was suggesting that he should not have put it back on.
