The Photos Are Breathtaking: A Thermometer Just Broke At -62°C (-80°F) In The World's Coldest Village

This time, however, the cold is even stronger, not only gripping legs but turning people's eyelashes into icicles as well. The official weather station at the 'pole of cold' registered -59°C (-74°F), but the new electronic thermometer claimed the weather was -62°C (-80°F). In fact, it even stopped working after reaching the painful mark. Some of the 500 locals go beyond that, claiming the temperatures are as low as -68°C (-90°F).
