The temperature might be reaching as low as -11 degrees but for some Swedes thats still not cold enough! as over 100 Stockholmers ignored the below-freezing temperatures on Sunday and bared their legs on the city’s subway system.
The strange outfit was part of the annual event participation known as the ‘No Pants Subway Ride’ which is celebrated in approximately 60 cities worldwide. The organizers, however, has strict guidelines for the participants who are not allowed to go ‘completely nude’ so as to ease the minds of other commuters.
