We say “don’t freeze to death” when people head out into real cold. And that’s a good idea. But we’re also captivated by the power of “frozen.” Frogs frozen stiff all winter that hop off, fresh and lively, in the spring. Bodies and brains frozen in hopes of reanimation. Athletes hitting the cryotank. Deep cold as a potential lifesaver in trauma and surgery. New techniques for bringing the nearly frozen-to-death back to life. This hour On Point, life, death, and the power of frozen. — Tom Ashbrook
