    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.

      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.

      Sauna competitions

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