He created the record at the Aershan Eco-Square of Inner Mongolia, where the temperature was 36 degrees centigrade below zero.He was buried in full and direct contact with snow, with only the head out. He showed no sign of shivering during the entire process and he even asked the Guinness World Record authenticator to count down before he was pulled out.The final time of 46 minutes and 7 seconds has been validated by the Guinness World Record representative. Jin began his cold resistance training more than 20 years ago. He could perform a series of cold resistance feats,such as standing barefoot on ice for several hours and taking icy water bath in bitter cold winter. Last year, he stayed fully buried in ice for two hours.
