I've been in -37C snow shoveling. Since then 0C doesn't even register as cold to me

Yep, and I've been in 110C in sauna. It's pretty fucking hot but not death

I think more that if it's 100c outside the planet is basically dead.

I'm pretty sure you mean 110°F, don't you?

110°C = 230°F
110°F = 43°C

No. Finnish sauna is usually around 80°C to 90°C, but sometimes crazy people do over 100°C. The starting temp in sauna competitions was 110°C

I just read that wikipedia article, and man, those saunas are crazy. I guess they really did mean °C.

Have you ever been to a sauna..?

110°F is a very cold sauna.

If a sauna is 110F I'm leaving because that thing is broken

Yeah I read spa for some reason and was thinking water temperature.
