That's insane. I genuinely cannot imagine how cold that is.
Eh it is a dry cold.....
But really after -20 or so its all the same but you get injured quicker.
I have lived in wet winter places (east cost of Canada, Ontario, Quebec) and I like my dry -50 more.
When you step outside, your face hurts. And that's if it's not windy. Unless you're really bundled up, it feels like you're naked in the cold, and your clothes are like a makeshift tarp you've wrapped around yourself.
In these temps anyone will understand how cold can burn.
I slept outside in -42 when I was in the army in Finland. Not a good night's sleep, I'll tell you that.
Just take a deep breath!
Have experienced some -35°C not funny.
