What? That’s way below freezing and totally unsafe. Why don’t you sleep in your car? (WARNING: Make sure your exhaust is uncovered and you’re not in your shed)

- chrisseaton 6y ago> What? That’s way below freezing and totally unsafe. How do you think people safely camp in cold climates? You can sleep safely at far far below zero in a sleeping bag.
- yetihehe 6y agoIn a sleeping bag which is rated for that temperature, sometimes cheaper bags are for like -5°C, which can be VERY uncomfortable already for +5°C.
- tinco 6y agoWhy would it be unsafe to sleep? They are inside the house so they are protected against the elements. I'm pretty sure sleeping in your car would be more dangerous just because of the discomfort leading to worse quality sleep and fatigue.
- tinco 6y ago(Just to make it clear I didn't mean to downplay this. Obviously to survive in your house at -10c you do need preparations which I understand many people don't have not being used to these temperatures. It's easy to forget as someone who lives a bit further up north that it's not a given that people have thick air tight walls and heavy down filled blankets to help them through. So to answer my own question: It would be unsafe because they might not have the things they need to be safe.)
