Your body is actually very resilient and can adjust
blood flow to make heat go anywhere it wants.


Not that resilient, plenty have died from the cold.


Alledgedly.


No allegedly about it. The Nazis even killed them
that way deliberately to work out the detail.


If I placed you in liquid nitrogen I could kill you from cold. But natural cold doesn't kill. We've evolved to live on our planet.

People also alledgedly die of old age.


Irrelevant to whether the cold can in fact kill you.


It's completely relevant. Both are things which don't kill.

And all your posts are duplicates, again.


See my other reply to that stupid comment.
