i heard that if you are overheated from say exercise or running, it is dangerous to drink very very cold water as it may cause your stomach to rupture. is that true?

The coldest water you can get is ice and that has never hurt anyone.

Yes or at least put ur body into shock. After running our PFT, they advice us not to pour cool water on our heads. How much more near freezing water inside you.

No. It might give you somewhat of an upset stomach but that's it. Think about it. The coldest water can get is ice. No one has died from eating ice.
