About 5,000 people were expected to take the plunge, raising money for Special Olympics Chicago, breaking the organization’s previous record. Last year, the event raised over $1 million. Lady Gaga took part with her fiance, Taylor Kinney.
Chicago native Vince Vaughn also took part in the event, according to ABC’s Chicago affiliate WLS-TV.
