    Guy probably bragging it was a blessing for his work. He set up a workstation in the hospital had no distractions from family and friends and powered through. Got more done in a day in the hospital than 3 days in the office.

    Right? 60 minutes in a sauna isn't healthy. It doesn't impress me - it makes me think he's an idiot without any common sense.

    185 degrees is an entry level sauna, but 1 hour without a break is not healthy

    Average Sauna in Finland is between 185 to 212, some go higher

    If you drink you can do that for an hour straight but that’s just idiotic in general.

    Then again enduring self-caused pain and suffering for no gain whatsoever (and telling everyone else what b2b lessons they learned from it somehow) is pretty much LinkedIn in a nutshell.

    At the South Pole research base, they have a tradition called the "300 Club." They spend ten minutes in a 200F sauna, and then run outside to the ceremonial South Pole and back clad only in boots while it's -100F outside.

    Nobody's died yet, but apparently there's an awful lot of people coughing their lungs inside out for a week or two afterwards. (Young, bored, and living in a 24-hour night can make people do pretty silly things.)

    This is just the worst. Sometimes people will say "how do you handle the heat" in a sauna. The acceptable responses are a non verbal shrug or a or I like it or maybe a quick joking brag that's just how I'm built!. It's not an invitation to give a fucking TED talk.

    Man if you got to constantly brag about how you can handle the heat, it kind of makes me think that you’re trying to convince yourself more than me.

    This guy gained experience from sitting in his car during the summer trying to finish his work to flee his business. Gained tolerance to heat.. he sits in the suave has a reminder of how life has failed him and th only love he really has every know was from an open window. No mindset will help when your brain shuts off from a heat stroke..
