It’s gotten down to -50C where I live a few times in my life and the easiest way I can describe it is that it hurts to breathe, any exposed skin will quickly start freezing and it’s generally a good reminder of your mortality and how easy it would be to die. Like people in hot climates, simply don’t go out when it’s that cold unless it’s 100% necessary.
article says a 77% mortality rate for people flying like that. i wonder if he knew the risks when he snuck on. I can’t imagine what -50°C feels like.

Would not recommend.
Little chilly I think.
At least in the wheel well there’s not much wind… or oxygen for that matter.
Actually, if you don’t die of suffocation it may not be as cold as you would think due to the lower air density to transfer heat from you.
I still wouldn’t risk it.
I feel horrible for that man
