I realize the article gave the outside temperature....but I wonder what the internal temperature managed to reach with body heat and insulation from the actual snow. That's a neck of a thing to happen... I wonder why aren't there more details to the story??

This is also in the Danish news.

The Swedish man is 44 years old. When the police found him he was skin and bones and he lived of of eating snow.

That explains whe he did not dehydrate.

Also it was -30 degrees. That's cold!

Eating snow is terrible as your body has to heat the snow.

Maybe he had some manner of melting it and drinking it in the car.
