Jon Stewart interviewed Lewis Gordon Pugh, a distance swimmer who just swam the waters of the North Pole. The video can be seen here (bottom of the video list):

Jon: "What was the temperature that you were dealing with in there?"
Lewis: "Minus 2 degrees Centigrade."
The audience gasps, and then Jon says, "What was the real temperature in a language that makes sense?"
Lewis: "I think in America that'd be 28 degrees Fahrenheit."


I was a little disappointed in Jon's reaction to temperature in Celsius.
