The temperature is five or six degrees below zero. Drink too much and sleep on the street for one night, will you die?

At minus five or six degrees, drinking too much and sleeping in the street all night may have serious health risks, because it is easy to cause hypothermia and other health problems at this temperature.

Hypothermia is a state in which the body temperature is lower than the normal level, which may cause a series of health problems, including heart problems, respiratory problems, cognitive impairment and even death. In cold weather, the human body will slow down metabolism and reduce heat production, and the body will contract blood vessels and reduce heat loss. This may cause the core body temperature to drop, which may lead to hypothermia.

In addition, drinking alcohol will lower the body temperature, because alcohol will dilate blood vessels and make blood flow to the skin surface, so that the body's heat will be lost faster. Therefore, if you drink too much at MINUS five or six degrees and sleep on the street, the risk of falling into hypothermia may be higher.

Therefore, I suggest you keep warm in cold weather and avoid excessive drinking, especially when sleeping outdoors. If you feel unwell or realize the symptoms of hypothermia, please seek medical help as soon as possible.
