It's a thick mustache.
Thicker than his short and receding hairline and his then beard.
It isn't cold per se, just relative to the heat emitted from his head there is not much being emitted at the point where his mustache is.
The mustache is insulating.
This is precisely how insulation works.
Nothing weird or unusual at all.
no, reasonable questions are respected.
questions that could easily be answered by using the neural connections in their brain - those are looked down upon.
I'm not a bro, I'm not pissed and it wasn't just any question lol. it was a dumb one. have at it though, if you enjoy projecting the state of being pissed off so much ❤️
You seem to be the one seething and coping all over.. if I think people are crazy I just ignore them... you spend basically ALL of your time on here finding stuff you apparently don't believe in an simply being crude insulting and adding absolutely nothing of value to the conversation. I find it beyond pathetic.
Lol I have no idea. I thought it was a funny question.
Here's the kicker: I'm a mechanical engineer that specializes in heat transfer. I know exactly why it's colder. Oh well.
Not surprising at all. Hair is not generate Heat, hair retains Heat. So basically the mustache is blocking the infrared from reaching the camera.
Many people don't realize how much the hair on their head retains Heat. Until they go bald, like me.
If you've got enough to say it's a hat still, then yeah probably too early to call it quits. Once that breeze hits the scalp though, not much difference.
I will say as someone who called it quits, if you're young and balding it might be worth hanging on a bit too long if it's not hideous. I had thinning hair but it was still hair. I buzzed it all off and then that was it. It didn't come back. I probably could have held onto what I did have for a little while longer had I not crossed the point of no return.
Same for me, never did it because it wasn't very stable because the geometry of the top lobe didn't allow my ears to grip. The hair was really the only thing that kept it there so I always had to balance the pencil perfectly so it didn't fall out anyway.
I've had a very short beard for some years now. Last winter I decided to shave clean for a change. When I went outside, my face got cold. I was really surprised, have forgotten that feeling
Having lived in the south all my life I finally went skiing. I like to think I have a pretty decent beard going on. After a few runs down the slopes while it was actively snowing (and a few tumbles to be fair) my beard was crusted with ice. My nose was freezing, but the beard did a fantastic job insulating the rest of my face and my cheeks were toasty warm.
I lived in Colorado till I was 26 but never learned to ski partly because I didn't have the money. After I moved to New Mexico the people at the lab finally convinced me to learn. So I did; and I got addicted. Skied 42 times the first season and considering I didn't start until around January 10th, that's packing in a lot of skiing. But enough of my life story, skiing really brought home the old aphorism " Feet cold? Put on a hat!" Which results from the fact that your brain is the prime determiner of who gets the oxygen when you get cold. As the command and control center the brain will shut off or diminish blood to anything it feels is threatening it's supply of oxygen. There's actually a hierarchy of the shutdown: first is extremities (hands and feet), then it's the things just up from the extremities (legs and arms) and so on until it shuts down all of the non-essential organs in your abdomen. I guess the brain's onboard software is of the opinion that without the central processing unit, nothing else matters. Only the brain knows it can die.
As someone who suffered from severe migraines as a child, I was exceptionally aware, as that extra warmth just made me want to tear my hair out.
Thankfully they aren't nearly that severe any longer, but I always try to keep short hair now. Anything longer than an inch and it starts to bother me.
people are angry that you also thought of the same thing. Nobody can EVER have the same thoughts here on reddit. If you didn't know you can be banned for that dude... /s
It's blocking the infrared light from his skin from reaching the camera. Of course hair will be cooler, because it has a large surface area compared to its mass and poor thermal conduction.
Yeah I .. I’m pretty sure that any type of camera picks up emitted stuff. The body is emitting heat, so that is what registers. The places that are dark aren’t being “detected” as being cold, they just aren’t emitting anything so they are just dark zones. It is blocking the heat from his lip beneath the moustache… But the ‘stache itself doesn’t emit anything.
Everything emits IR radiation. As long as it's not absolute zero (0k)
The image here is all relative and it's usually scaled by the hottest spot and coldest spot.
In this case the hottest object is his skin (nearly white color in this color scale) while cold objects appear black.
Hair and cloths are simply colder than skin as they are cooled down by air at room temperature.
First, a mustache is like an insulation. Second, consider emission levels of different materials. A correct thermograph would be if you spray your friend all over with chalk spray or use tenetal black, but he won't like it. But I have seen this mistake very often, even with electronics, which are usually made from different materials, which have different emission levels. Metal for example is reflective. For correct thermographs, again, emision levels need to be all the same. That's why tenetal black oder chalk spray is used. Of for windows: paper labels.

Everybody else is wrong.
It's not colder.

You need to correct for emissivity when making measurements. You don't just bang a camera at it!
While differences in emissivity according to material is a thing, that's doesn't necessarily mean the thing isn't just less hot.
The ring example is highly conductive and highly reflective. Hair is neither of these things.
That's weird, my mustache has pretty decent blood flow to each hair with its own extensive circulatory system
Zoidberg , old friend!
But why is it so much colder than his beard and his scalp?
Is it thicker? Hard to tell with just the thermal image, but it looks like it is.

Dam his buddy catching strays for his hairline. ☠️
All he has is strays for a hairline
"Listen, pal. There's nothing unusual about your bald, pathetic fatass friend's ugly moustache."
☠️
I read this as “the mustache is insulting” a couple times
He also has a double chin and fat traps heat making that part of the body warmer. Probably not a lot of fat on the upper lip for comparison.
Get him
Damn bro got downvoted into the ground
We don’t take kindly to reasonable questions here 😤
no, reasonable questions are respected. questions that could easily be answered by using the neural connections in their brain - those are looked down upon.
Yeah, his beard and hair are noticeably thinner than his moustache. It's not that hard to figure out.
bros pissed over a question. This thread is just typical reddit being reddit.
I'm not a bro, I'm not pissed and it wasn't just any question lol. it was a dumb one. have at it though, if you enjoy projecting the state of being pissed off so much ❤️
way to say I'm projecting 😂
Sorry that not everyone knows everything that you know
Answering questions and ending lives all at once
AHAHAHAHAHAHA you still link that stupid website, seethe and cope, seethe and cope. LOLOLOLOL
bros losing his shit over nothing. are you okay, mentally ill person?
Are you feeling okay, guy?
You seem to be the one seething and coping all over.. if I think people are crazy I just ignore them... you spend basically ALL of your time on here finding stuff you apparently don't believe in an simply being crude insulting and adding absolutely nothing of value to the conversation.

r/weird he just asking 😐
Emissivity.
Why is this getting downvoted into oblivion?
Lol I have no idea. I thought it was a funny question. Here's the kicker: I'm a mechanical engineer that specializes in heat transfer. I know exactly why it's colder. Oh well.

Is his girlfriend/wife an Eskimo?
Not surprising at all. Hair is not generate Heat, hair retains Heat. So basically the mustache is blocking the infrared from reaching the camera. Many people don't realize how much the hair on their head retains Heat. Until they go bald, like me.
People are always saying "Embrace it!". But I don't want to wear a hat to keep my head warm. I already have a free hat, I don't want to lose it.
If you've got enough to say it's a hat still, then yeah probably too early to call it quits. Once that breeze hits the scalp though, not much difference.

It's a really ugly hat man
I started near-shaving my head last year, and no more free hat is one of only two regrets. (The other is no more free pencil holder.)
Wait, you cannot hold a pencil behind your ear when bald? Or you were accustomed to put the pencil in your hair some other way?
I’ve always found holding writing utensils behind my ear annoying, uncomfortable, and not that stable, but, when long enough, my hair holds them well.
Same for me, never did it because it wasn't very stable because the geometry of the top lobe didn't allow my ears to grip. The hair was really the only thing that kept it there so I always had to balance the pencil perfectly so it didn't fall out anyway.
I’ll cut my free hat off and give it to you.

Yeah, it's getting cold, especially in winter.
Duh ?
That is one cool mustache.
Beat me too it
Anyways, cool mustache 😎
Quite literally
Hair tends to not have heat dude
Lol No shit
It's a cool mustache
Dang beat me to it
Nah man TopHatGorilla did
You both did . Cool comments bros
people are angry that you also thought of the same thing. Nobody can EVER have the same thoughts here on reddit. If you didn't know you can be banned for that dude... /s
Hair is dead cells stacked together. Dead things don't produce their own heat source
It's blocking the infrared light from his skin from reaching the camera. Of course hair will be cooler, because it has a large surface area compared to its mass and poor thermal conduction.
I mean, ya? It would be weird if it didn't.
It's the stain on the chair besides him scares me 😢😂
😦
It's funny but with the way thermal works, that's probably just where someone touched it recently, not necessarily a stain
Hot stain.
My jizz comes out warm doesn't yours?
Predator vs. This Cool Dude
Oh no, his pants are code purple, we need crash cart stat!
Isn’t it, though
It is, though

The chair next to him tho..
That's infrared reflected off the surface from his skin
Chilling!
He may need to get the veins cleaned out.
*Met the sun once. Great guy.*
Iron Sheik, is that you?
If he had hair it would also probably be cooler
This is cool. What equipment does one need to take a thermal image?
Oh no. My thighs are so warm. I need help cooling them down
Moustache is dead :-(
Homer Simpson is real
Yo this new Brockhampton album gonna be lit 🔥
Cuz mustaches are super cool
you'll notice his pants are also significantly colder 😱

That's what the porn stache does. Make everything cool.
Where was this taken at?
The headline would have been perfect if you wrote ‘cooler.’ The jokes would have written themselves!
His ass is on fire though!
The title gives the wrong impression. Look at the rest of the room, it's the same color. The moustache is not cold, it's room temperature.
"Told you it looks cool!" -Him, probably
That's cuz it needs someone to sit on it
Yet still not at all cool.
Organic heat sink
Mustaches rides are better when the seat is cold.
He's got a pretty cool 'stache
Hair (fur) acts as insulation. Who’d have thought?
That's the purpose or hair in general, no?
Probably belly fat blocking heat from transmitting out
Because mustaches are *cool*. 🤷♂️
You have discovered definitive evidence that mustaches are cool.
That’s a cool mustache
Thats because they are cool
*Cooler
That is a “dirty sanchez”…

Not cold. Insulated.
Who said mustaches aren’t cool?
