WELCOME to the World's Coldest village Siberia with -62C Temperature

Inside the tiny Siberian town where -62C temperatures are freezing locals’ eyelashes and shattering thermometers

It was so icy in the Siberian outpost of Oymyakon, Russia, that one woman's eyelashes turned into icicles.

WELCOME to the world's coldest village - where bone-cracking minus 62C temperatures have shattered thermometers.

It has been so icy in the Siberian outpost of Oymyakon that one woman's eyelashes even turned into icicles.

The digital thermometer was installed last year to help Oymyakon market itself to tourists, but it gave up the ghost at minus 62C.

One villager in Oymyakon even recorded a temperature of minus 67C, while others agreed that official readings did not tell the full story.

But elsewhere life went on as normal in the Siberian freezer.

A remarkable video shows an outdoor fish market fully functioning at a temperature of minus 50C in regional capital Yakutsk, the world’s coldest city.

Resident Vladimir Danilov made the film while going to buy whitefish to make local dish stroganina.

This is a popular dish if indigenous people in northern Siberia - thin slices, eaten raw.

Vladimir admitted: “While filming the trading stalls my hands froze to wild pain. And sellers stand here all day long. How do they warm themselves?”

Elsewhere life goes on as normal.
