Can you freeze someone and keep them alive?
“There is absolutely no current way, no proven scientific way, to actually freeze a whole human down to that temperature without completely destroying — and I mean obliterating — the tissue,” says Shannon Tessier, a cryobiologist with Harvard University and Massachusetts General Hospital.
What temperature would a human freeze instantly?
At minus 30 F (minus 34 C), an otherwise healthy person who isn’t properly dressed for the cold could experience hypothermia in as little as 10 minutes, Glatter said. At minus 40 to minus 50 F (minus 40 to minus 45 C), hypothermia can set in in just 5 to 7 minutes, he said.

Would you freeze or suffocate first in space?
You would not, however, freeze straight away, despite the extremely cold temperatures; heat does not leave the body quickly enough for you to freeze before you suffocate, due to the lack of both convection and conduction. If you do die in space, your body will not decompose in the normal way, since there is no oxygen.
Can a person freeze to death?
Your body will freeze in external temperatures a little below the freezing temperature of water, which is about 32 degrees Fahrenheit. However, you can most certainly die before that. Dying of the cold can happen whenever severe or profound hypothermia kicks in, which can happen before your body technically freezes.
How long does it take for a human to freeze to death?
Humans may freeze to death when their internal body temperature drops below 70 degrees, but you can lose consciousness at 82 F (28 C). In subzero temperatures, a human could freeze to death in as little as 10-20 minutes.
