ang mo's have been doing yoga in sub-freezing temperatures for years. tiong's are just beginning to copy the ang mo's. and you see all the suaku tiong's getting excited over it, and thronging the exposed chicks with stares and snapshots.
Actually the Guinness Cold Endurance Record is held by two tiongs (see article below). Not surprising, considering that the coldest region in the northern hemisphere is north-eastern Eurasia – Mongolia, North-East China, Siberia. And the indigenous peoples of the coldest regions are all Mongoloids, not ang mohs.
During the Korean War, at the height of the brutal winter of 1950/51 when temperatures plummeted to -40ºC in the mountains, thousands of US soldiers suffered from frostbite and hypothermic deaths. Some froze to death standing on sentry. Interestingly, when they analysed the ethnic composition of frostbite cases, they found, in order of decreasing incidence: blacks > whites > Koreans (& Chinese).
Whites are adventurous, but they can't hack the extreme cold like the yellows can.
