100C° is not death, it is Finnish sauna temp. Really, Sauna competitions start with 110C°. Famously in 2010 one Russian competitor died, and the Finn who won had to be sent to ER.

Edit: didn't know that they actually haven't held any competitions after that.

Sauna competitions

I appreciate how you just dropped this casually like of course everyone knows about Sauna competitions.

[-] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 11 points 4 months ago

Haha, sure, but there isn't much to know.

Sauna competition is that they go inside hot sauna and last one who comes out wins. They increase the temperature and throw water to the sauna stones. That humidity makes the temperature feel quite a lot harder (air is quite good insulator, which is why you don't boil).

In the competition quite often people got first degree burn injuries, which is quite crazy.

Your user name makes a lot more sense now!

I think it means dead as in trying to live in a 100° environment. Kind of like the survival rule of 3s, where you can survive 3 weeks without food, 3 days without water, 3 hours in an extreme environment, and 3 minutes without air.

I guess it could say "unsustainable" instead of dead, but that's less snappy.

3 hours in an extreme environment is so vague. you'd die in like 20 minutes naked in Antarctica, or you could survive just fine forever with proper clothing. you may die in a day and a half in the desert if you had no water

IIRC the 3 hours figure was minutes and was for oxygen

I think I've been in one getting close to 100 C. It was pretty unbearable after about a minute. Crazy Fins (I mean that in the way that I love them, but the saunas are crazy).

Well in my defense, I wasn't cooking bread at the time.

Shit, what's the most hardcore sport? Rugby? No, saunas.
