bizzard Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 Bung an ice bucket full of ice cubes upside down on your head. Place a fan in front of your face and sit back in the nude sucking an ice lolly whilst the ice gradually melts, trickles all down and is super cooled again by the fan, lovely. If the bucket has a handle which would secure it under the chin like a proper helmet mobility like shopping sprees are possible, topping up the bucket with ice at freezers for the journey home. A full bucket of ice cubes should last for a couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty40s Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 If you stick an ecofan on the top of the upturned bucket the ice cubes will last twice as long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A full bucket of ice cubes should last for a couple of hours. Once the water is supercooled it will flow upwards, enhancing the total experience. Point of order: It has to be a Magnum (large size) not an ice lolly. If an ice lolly is also available it can be applied to such parts of the body as require extra cooling, with minimum effort.

nicknorman Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 How to stay cool? Move to the Highlands of Scotland. Around 10 degrees cooler! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bizzard Posted June 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 Two more ideas. Chuck the ice bucket idea and just stick the Ecofan on your nut, which draw the heat out of the head making it work, This would also help to propel you along too. Ideally you need a bald pate for the best heat exchange. if not a patch of hair could be shaved off to the dimensions of the fans base and it clamped or stuck on it. If you have a car with a sun roof the head and fan could be up in the fresh air whilst driving along which would also give the car a boost. If your a hothead it might even propel the car along with the engine switched off. Idea no2 is a gas fridge. A hole the side of your head gouged out of the bottom so it can be worn resting on the shoulders with the head poked up inside. A window in the door to see where your going would be useful too. The gas bottle could be mounted upon a hikers back pack frame carried on the back, or pulled along behind you on a little truck, linked to the fridge by its hose. Stocking up with large quantities of lollies, mint-choc cones ect and transporting them home without the awful fear of them all melting on the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
