Piercing Fans Out of Luck In Slovenia.

Slovenia with record low temperature -49

Slovenia registered the lowest temperatures ever. At the Bohin resort, a half frozen weatherman standing outside, reported minus 49°C.

Slovenian Media have reported recommendations of the meteorological institute of Germany, which alarms over the risks of having piercings – the metal earrings on people’s body could cause dangerous freezing.

No metal objects attached to the body should be worn, warns the media, for people who must venture outside. For everyone else, Slovenian media urges its citizens to stay in their homes. //01.10.09

HA HA HA HA HA!! I love it! Not being a fan of body mutilation myself - I'm always amused when something comes along to demonstrate exactly how STUPID it really is. :)
