Have you ever been outside in minus 40 degrees? Trust me – DON’T. But just in case you are, try this “fun” trick before you freeze to death.
Boiling water freezing in mid-air at -41 degrees

“Physics, my dear.”
Awesome!
I have been in weather that cold and the local weatherman, Too Tall Tom Symanski, did the same thing. Fargo 1995. It was colder.
Science is @#$%ing awesome.
You know, I think my favourite part of this is this: I don’t speak Russian, but I’m pretty confident I can translate every word this guys says.
“As you can see, it’s -41. They don’t get that in California. We’re going to try throwing this water out the window. Here goes!”
Brr, it’s 61F here.
BTW, -40 is the same temp, C or F.
One time I was in -25 F in Chicago. I found out nose hairs freeze and that I have them.
“BTW, -40 is the same temp, C or F.”
Which is exactly why I didn’t include the C or F in the story. 🙂
Two years ago I was in Siberia, in a place called Nizhnevartovsk. It was -43 degrees then. I did the same thing with a cup of hot water. It’s pretty cool (no pun intended)
Ah, brings back the memories of neighbors lawns busted up because their pipes froze and the winter oil in my buddies truck froze solid (got below -60 that year).
I’ll take what the pacific north west calls “winter” anytime.

It can get mentally exhausting dealing with 4 months of rain but on the plus side, you don’t have to shovel it. 🙂
Peeing outdoors… just think about it…
THAT’S seriously hosed…
