Peeing in the coldest place on Earth, where temperatures can reach a bone-chilling -128.6°F (-89.2°C), would be an instant ice show! The second you let it go, your urine would freeze almost instantly, turning into a tiny ice sculpture as it leaves your body. It would be like a real-life frozen waterfall—except way less glamorous and way colder! Imagine the challenge of peeing outside in such extreme cold—frostbite might be a bigger concern than the freezing pee!
In reality, your urine would probably not freeze into solid ice before hitting the ground, but it would freeze incredibly quickly once exposed to those extreme temperatures.
Here’s how it would likely happen:
As it leaves your body, the warmth of the urine (around 98.6°F / 37°C) would start cooling down in the frigid air.
By the time it gets a few inches away from you, the outer layers of the urine would start to freeze into tiny ice crystals, creating a slushy texture.
Once it hits the ground, it would be much colder, freezing solid almost immediately, or forming frost before fully becoming ice.
So, while it might not freeze entirely before hitting the ground, it would freeze very quickly upon contact with the extreme cold of the environment.

Perfect place to sell adult diapers.

When I reached the idea of a pee slushy I just had to make a mental note to never, ever, ever get stranded in Antarctica 😱.
