It takes more than 2,000 pounds of ice to cool off a North Texas heat wave.

Epic Waters celebrated National Waterpark Day by dumping a full ton of ice into its wave pool, complete with snowball fights, mascots and plenty of cheers from families trying to beat the summer heat.

"It's been such a heat wave throughout Texas... let's cool down, let's take a chill and let's have a great day," Epic Waters General Manager Jessi O'Daniel said.

Would you jump into an ice-filled wave pool?
