Yes, we all know when you're cold and wet and hungry, it's not nice, as you're cold and wet and hungry. I imagine 99% of us have been there before. You're not learning anything though are you?

As for trying to get hypothermic to see what it's like?
What you going to do if some impressionable unknowing forum member does that with a weak heart or undiagnosed condition AND SNUFFS IT because they take it too far?

We stop and get warm. Why?
Because we don't want to waste ammo!
Oh yeah, we're all ex's as well.
