Thrill-seekers addicted to intl hair-freezing competition

Thrill-seekers from around the world have taken part in an international hair-freezing competition to see who can make the coolest hairstyle when their locks freeze solid in -15 C temperatures.

Participants jump into Canada's Takhini Hot Springs, where waters temperatures are between 36C and 42 C, before fashioning their wet hair into hilarious shapes, quiffs and spiky hairdos.

The attraction in Whitehorse, Yukon, runs the contest annually, with winners announced in March.
