Alright, let me tell you about Malaysia and the surrounding areas.

What really stuck with me is that in Malaysia, people voluntarily sit in freezers just for fun. I saw freezer chambers with -15°C inside in a couple of places. At the entrance, they give you warm clothes and you can sit inside until you turn blue.

For just 5 US dollars per person! Surprisingly enough, there were actually people inside doing it.

Of course, I understand that in cold countries, people came up with the idea of paying to warm up in baths and saunas. But to pay to freeze? That's something my brain has a hard time wrapping around.
