AJ Story Time: I ''Broke'' the Ice

Hey Jammers! Welcome to the Animal Jam Whip blog.

Have you ever received a message like this where you've randomly been given a certain number of gems or diamonds?


Contrary to popular belief, this occurs if you have a recurring membership and you're playing Animal Jam when it renews itself.

Before membership cards, I used to have a recurring 6 month membership, and mine just so happened to renew itself while I was trying to break the ice in Mt. Shiveer.

Yes, I, along with multiple other Jammers, was hopping on the ice in Mt. Shiveer several years ago (about 2012-ish) one evening when I suddenly got the pop-up that said I had been granted 9,000 gems. Since the message clearly didn't explain the reasoning behind the free gems, I automatically assumed it was because I ''broke'' the ice. 

If you're unfamiliar with this myth (and if you are, you're probably pretty new to Animal Jam), basically, if you ''break'' the ice, legend has it that you will either be gifted with rare items, gems, and/or diamonds. Some Jammers go far enough to believe that you fall into a pit, which is some kind of a secret room with items and riches.

However, this myth, as well as the Coral Canyons bridge, Diamond Shop, and Zios Pit myths, were all debunked by AJHQ in a Daily Explorer post a few years back, but that was after this event happened.

Being the naive child I was, I ran around my house screaming ''I BROKE THE ICE ON ANIMAL JAM! I BROKE THE ICE! I GOT 9,000 FREE GEMS! I DID IT!'' I don't really remember if my blog existed at the time, but I'm sure if it did, I would have made an even bigger deal about it in a post on there.

Well, that's my little story. I hope you enjoyed reading today's post. Whip on!

  1. I remember those days when Jammers danced in the diamond shop all white, I barely see anybody do that now though, I still see people jumping on the bridge in coral canyons or the ice trying to break through it XD
    Imagine if the coral canyons bridge DID break tho O.O
    The ice wouldn't be as bad, but still O.O

    1. If the bridge broke, then jammers would fall through and it would probably be fatal, it being hard rock and all.

    2. And the jammers could drown if the ice broke. Seriously, did anyone ever teach you not to walk over frozen ponds??
