more speedos than I needed to see

The smell is terrible. That's why everyone bathes naked.

jyrque
Usually bathes naked*

>more speedos than I needed to see

Dude, grow up... they're just bodies, you have one too!

chumbucket
oh sorry, didn't think that there would be people who enjoy watching fat sweaty guys in speedos..I am mistaken apparently

Finland: Where the seats have holes for your junk and everybody sits around in a small, hot room with no clothes on.

manfred
the fuck? this russia, not finland

what's the deal with you and geography?

RUSSIA, SWEDEN, FINLAND, WTF, I'M NOT EXPECTED TO KEEP TRACK OF ALL OF YOU. YOU'RE LIKE CANADIANS WITHOUT THE CULTURAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO FINE CUISINE.

SolRo

caviar, motherfucker.

Dutch Oven Fresh Pie
I've never had fine Canadian cuisine.

facek

Well get yourself a fuckin bucket of Poutine Dutch!

Paranatural

I've never actually understood the point of a sauna. You sit around and...get hot? What the hell? Course I'm from the south where temps of 100 degrees with 95% humidity is not uncommon. Maybe northerners...I dunno...are retarded?

SolRo
when the average temp is -30, getting in hot room is nice.

Btw, does living in high temperatures make you retarded and self-centered? I notice that about a lot of southerners.

mcsancherson

No, it's definitely genetic.

Aelric

I'll give the boring answer: The heat helps relax the muscles after a workout, allowing you to avoid the stiffness and minor aches and pains that working out can bring. Plus, you get to see old man junk and you don't even have to pay for it!

bac
They also help if you're sick/hungover. sweat out all that ick.

theSnake

Wait, the winner's time was under 12 minutes? How anticlimactic.

Billy the Poet

The air temperature was hotter than boiling point. I'm pretty sure that will kill you in not too great a span.

drcrypt
Uh, what? Boiling point of water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit. A sauna isn't even close, unless you're talking the boiling point of propane or something.

12 minutes in a sauna seems pretty wimpy, even for someone like me who absolutely hates them. I've seen guys in Budapest who basically live in saunas.

JimL2

Drcrypt, did you even watch the video or did you figure that your anecdote about Budapest was too important to not share immediately? According to the extremely helpful subtitles, the temperature in this particular world-championship sauna STARTS at 110 Celsius/230 Fahrenheit. Which, as Billy mentioned, is hotter than the boiling point of water.

I think I just saw the premise of David Blane's next TV special.

I know the internet is the place to make unverifiable claims but I actually participated in the 2007 world championship because of a new year's bet.

This is from some qualifying round in Russia though, not the final in Heinola.

I finished 48th or something like that, and second (out of 6) in the wild card final, beating a Russian and an American from sports illustrated (who I later spent the post-competition buff� with, discussing The Smiths)

yeah, that was my 6� minutes of hot fame
