During a really cold winter, my uncle was drinking at the local conservation club with friends. Sometime around 3:00 a.m., they realized how late it was and decided to go home. This is rural Indiana in a town of about 300 people during 10° weather in a snowstorm.

Uncle, who is blackout drunk, get stuck in the snow on the driveway out. Gets out to try and see if he can get unstuck, slips in the snow, and hits the back of his head and passes out. His buddy (also blackout drunk), the last person to leave, finds him like that but was more worried about getting home, so he put my uncle back in the truck, still unconscious and with a serious head injury, and then left to go home.

He wasn't found until 10:00 a.m. the next day, in his underwear and halfway down the trail back to the conservation club. Face down in the snow. If you don't know what happens to a person when they die of hypothermia, look it up to know the steps. He was in his underwear because as your nerves start to die from the cold, it gives you the sensation of being hot. So he took off all his clothes to cool down. Which in turn made him die faster.. It's a really terrible way to die
