Classic deception/ruse, the temperature of ice water mixture is zero degrees, but try standing in -10 degrees open air and see.

The champion/winner is North Korean. Ever since he was young, he was known as “fire baby”, playing outside in -20 degree temperatures wearing only shorts and slippers. He’s from my county, and has been in the newspaper before…
