The Coldest Cabin in Alaska

Three guys living way up in the far north of Alaska were sitting in their local bar on a brutally cold winter night. They started arguing about whose cabin was the coldest.

“It’s freezing in mine,” said the first guy.

“You think that’s cold? Mine’s worse,” said the second.

“Nope,” said the third guy, “my place is the coldest in the whole state.”

To settle it, they decided to check each cabin.

They went to the first guy’s cabin. He said, “Watch this,” and tossed a cup of water into the air. It froze solid before it hit the ground.

“Pretty cold,” the others admitted.

“But mine’s still colder.”

Next, they went to the second cabin. He took a deep breath and exhaled. His breath froze into a little chunk and fell to the floor.

“Okay… that’s colder,” the first guy said.

But the third guy still claimed victory.

Finally, they reached the third guy’s cabin.

“Alright,” he said, “watch this.”

He went into the bedroom, pulled back the blankets, and took out a little frozen ball of ice. He set it on a spoon, held a match under it, and warmed it gently.

As soon as it thawed just enough, it went, “FFFAAAARRRRTTT!”

He won.
