One on one: 8 people, has overcome the cold
A naked man can be in the cold at minus 30-35°C for half an hour, max one hour. Prolonged exposure to cold will cause the internal mechanisms are unable to replenish the heat loss, so that the body temperature will begin to decline. Resistance to cold can be increased if regularly hardening of the body, as is done, for example, the "walrus". Thanks to the "training" cooling their body is not afraid of the cold and icy water. But their resistance to cold — not the limit of human capabilities.
Higher immunity to cold appears in people with so-called abilities to withstand extremely low temperatures, and sometimes those who find themselves in extreme situations. We found 8 explorers, athletes and enthusiasts who on their own initiative or by chance, won the cold.

Roald AmundsenNorwegian polar Explorer Roald Amundsen nearly all his life engaged in the study of the North. On the way to the great discoveries, the traveler had to overcome many great difficulties.
One of the most difficult challenges awaited polar Explorer during his first expedition. The ship on which the team was moving to the South magnetic pole, was stopped by ice. The crew waited for an unplanned hibernation, to wait on Board which was not sufficient or polar clothes, no stock products. To survive in the harsh conditions, had to alter equipment in blankets and learn how to hunt seals. After 13 months, the ship finally came out of the ice zone and the researcher together with other surviving explorers returned home.

WIM HofWIM Hof, known as the "ice man", literally every day checks on the strength of a cold. To spend a few hours in the cold, to climb Mont Blanc in shorts, to swim under the ice of a frozen lake a common thing for him. 20 such achievements WIM Hof got into the Guinness Book of records. The Dutchman is convinced that the incredible achievements and records are the logical results of his long labour, not super-powers.
