Anyone like saunas?

Just heared today that a russian man died in the Sauna WC 2010, a finnish man, the former and current world champion was rushed to hospital after having crams and spasms. The tempreture was 110c (230f) and there ware reports of skin falling off causing open wounds and bleeding, the record time 2010 was 6+ minutes.

Half a litre of water is added ever 30 seconds.

This was the last time the WC was held beacuse of the death. Really tragic!

Anyone here like saunas? I do, but I have never crossed 97c with a bit less water heh

Why would anyone like to sit and sweat with other people in a sauna? Not I. We have the months of July & August for that

Don't you dare forget February. The often mistaken COLDEST MONTH OF THE YEAR month. February is a ***** here in MN.

February usually snows the most here but I think January is usually the coldest. Ugh, I would hate to see a winter where you or Silent Trigger live...

Not that bad here, live in the south parts of sweden so it never gets any lower then around -35C (-31f). But I like real winters with alot of snow and cold temps so it means it's pretty crappy here mostly!
