An ice park in Russia dug a crater into the ice from which it is nearly impossible to escape.<br /><br />Video of the attraction, filmed on March 11, shows people trying to escape a so-called ice prison, or ice crater that is extremely slippery and difficult to climb out of, at the Oktem Park around 50 km south of the city of Yakutsk, a port city in Yakutia, east Siberia. <br /><br />Despite forming human bridges and attempting to push each other out, none of the five people in the crater could escape and kept sliding back into the centre. <br /><br />In Yakutia, also known as the Sakha Republic, winter outdoor activities usually take place from late February to mid-April as it is reportedly too cold to go outside earlier in the winter. <br /><br />From the months of November to February, temperatures can range from -30°C to -71°C. However, from the end of February it starts to warm up from -15°С to -45°С by night and -25°C to 0°С during the afternoons. <br /><br />The "ice prisons" have been part of the park's attractions since 2010, and are made when a pit is dug out on a frozen reservoir or lake.<br /><br />Usually, few people are able to get out on their own, so when a person gets tired of sliding inside the pit, they ask a nearby employee of the attraction to help them get out.
