I'm like the road sign "Slippery when wet". See the following webiste:

I'm pretty sure I know your answer to this one:
"Have you ever been so consistently cold that you discounted William Harvey's theory of the circulation of the blood?"

I am also the wettest place in the world. That's a little dirty. Alack.
How you like me now?
I AM VOSTOK, ANTARCTICA
The world's coldest place. You reached a low of -88.3 degrees Celsius, recorded at the convenient Russian research station on top of you, a level of intense cold that would not look out of place on Mars. At this temperature mercury is very firmly a solid, making normal thermometers useless; radon gas condenses into liquid; and a few degrees colder would have carbon dioxide freezing out of thin air. Added to this, your average temperature is a trifling -55 degrees, the only visible rocks within 600 miles are meteorites, the ice freezes eyelids shut and clothing to the body within fifteen seconds of exposure and sometimes even splits teeth open. You are, in a word, cold.
