Human Body in Ice: The dead body of an army soldier has been found buried in snow after 56 years. In the year 1968, an AN-12 aircraft of the Indian Air Force met with an accident in the Rohtang Pass of Himachal Pradesh. The soldiers were missing since this incident. Now his mortal remains are being brought home. In such a situation, the question arises that for how many years can a human body remain safe in snow? Know what science says…
How long can a person survive in snow?
Scientists believe that if a living person lives in snow, then to remain safe he will have to maintain his body temperature. It can withstand cold up to -50 degrees, but if it stays in the open snow for a long time, the body starts deteriorating only after -5 degrees. Due to this, the blood vessels of hands, legs and arms become stiff. Due to this, the blood present in the body can stop providing heat to the skin. Due to this the whole body can become cold. Due to this he may also die.
For how many days can a body remain safe after being buried in snow?
When a person gets buried in snow, his body gradually starts freezing due to cold. In this process, the cells of the organs start freezing, which protects the body. The position of the body in snow depends on many factors like temperature, humidity and wind speed. Depending on these, the condition of the body in snow changes, but generally, the body can remain safe in snow for 100 to 200 years.
How many days can a body be preserved after death?
If the dead body of a person is normally kept in ice, it can be preserved only for two to three days, because after that the dead body starts smelling. Then it becomes difficult to keep him around.
body temperature
Body temperature is around 36.5 degrees Celsius. If it falls below 30 degrees or goes above 42 degrees, a person can die. Health experts said that if the maximum temperature reaches 45 degrees, blood pressure may decrease due to complaints like fainting, dizziness or nervousness. At the same time, if you stay in temperature of 48 to 50 degrees or more for a long time, then the muscles can react completely and death can also occur.
