-40° Celsius = -40° Fahrenheit
I thought the next step was releasing a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat?
Heh, nice. I thought it would be more related to:
No escape key. Well, that’s appropriate.
The joke being that’s where scientists universally decided “fuck it, that’s cold enough.”

Beg to differ… scientists invented the 300 Club in Antarctica which involves being outside, significantly under-dressed, well past that point.
One participant described the experience of running outside as feeling “like somebody was hitting me with a tennis racket full of needles.”
…although I still want to join… 
(That said, my cats draw the line about -10°C… but they’re not scientists…) 
People should do it while they can. Probably not many of those days left.
Why would it have a track ball? Oh, right…
It’s a fact!
everyone piles into the sauna set at 93 degrees Celsius (200 °F) for 10 minutes. Once the heat becomes too much to handle, everyone runs outside.
Do they even feel the benefit from 10 minutes? I think I have runned in to ~-25°C snow from ~100°C sauna few times but I did spend more then 10 minutes in the sauna.
Of course spending too long in a sauna is deadly.

On 7 August 2010, Russian finalist and former third-place finisher Vladimir Ladyzhensky and Finnish five-time champion Timo Kaukonen passed out after six minutes of 110 °C (230 °F) heat, both suffering from terrible burns and trauma. According to a spectator who asked not to be identified, Kaukonen was able to leave the sauna with assistance, but Ladyzhensky had to be dragged out, and almost immediately went into cramps and convulsions. Ladyzhensky died despite resuscitation and Kaukonen was rushed to the hospital. He was reported to suffer from extreme burn injuries, and his condition was described as critical, but stable. Just a few minutes before the finals, Kaukonen told the Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang that the saunas used for the 2010 championship were a lot more extreme than the saunas used for previous competitions. As Kaukonen and Ladyzhensky were disqualified for not leaving the sauna unaided, Ilkka Pöyhiä became the winner.
Ladyzhensky’s autopsy concluded that he had died of third-degree burns. His death was aided by his use of strong painkillers and local anesthetic grease on his skin. Kaukonen was competing according to the rules.
