    It takes hours for a human body to freeze to death. I'm pretty sure you're gonna need air before then, so you'll drown first.

    You would drown first. Because the water was so cold, your body would go into shock and it would be really hard to breathe. You would probably drown in several seconds because it is too cold for your blood to pump and your lungs to function. The factor of you freezing actually increase the rate of which you drown and it works vise versa.

    You would most likely die on impact if the bridge were high enough...otherwise you would drown.
