Yeah, I'm a lot hotter when the sweat is.on my body.

Should you wipe off your sweat? - No.

no. keep it on

Yes, because being wet makes me want to crawl out if my skin.

I play table tennis so if im sweaty during a exercise the sweat litererally flies everywhere lol... When a set ends i wipe my sweat of with a towel and its working good

so why do i feel cooler after wiping sweat off? to me it seems like the sweat on my body is warmer than the surrounding air.

I thought this would be about if sweat evaporation is less efficient if your clothes get soaked.

<<@Saul_Atreides
says :
2 years late, but how do dissolved salt and other chemicals affect the evaporation of water? Would it be more or less efficient to wipe off all sweat and replace it with an optimised uniform layer of cold water from a spray bottle?
>>
<<@stylesraw
says :
But drinking and then urinating/sweating is not the only method of using direct liquid cooling. Think of how quickly you cool down if you jump in a pool or get sprayed by a hose... Much quicker than sweat alone.
>>
<<@MooseDoesStuff
says :
you almost got it on this one. it's much more complicated than that. only the surface of water evaporates, so leaving only a film of water on cools much more effectively than sweat drops. wiping till dry would be bad, but wiping drops off will always improve cooling. also, drops form more of a barrier to heat escape, because the part of the drop that's in contact with your skin will be about your temperature, thus preventing you from heating it any further. you now have less surface area to cool from. sweat doesn't have to be dripping for you to benefit from wiping *most* of the water off.

I think you could get away with smearing sweat around, since it looks the sane as wiping it off
>>
<<@AlRogerson
says :
It is also better to have a spray bottle and soak yourself BEFORE you would start sweating
>>
<<@lanalancia8177
says :
The sweat is very salty, which prevents it from evaporating. You better clean the sweat away and wet yourself with a clean water

37kcal/h average is a huge overestimation for water cooling the body. You wouldn't be able to drink 1l every hour, you'd encounter hyponatremia pretty quickly.

0:51 that would be 37 kcal or kilo calories, it would take 37000 calories, but thats neither here nor there

<<@TheDemigans
says :
Fresh sweat isn't that smelly. Make sure you at least spool yourself off every day it's hot and sweaty. It's when it gets stale that it gets smelly and dirty.
>>
<<@Josh-ub5ht
says :
When I really need to cool off I stand at the sink with paper towels, wet them under the cool water and hold it against my face for several seconds, then rewet it with fresh cool water and repeat. The water warms up in contact with your skin, and takes that heat with it when you rinse the towel with cold water

Is that the chosen one

<<@chuckblaze5147

Just use a cold damp towel to wipe sweat and smear clean water on you maybe?

<<@AlextheLordofFire
says :
Unless you are near to any coast, which we didn’t evolve to prepare to. When in a humid environment, you might as well wipe it off, cus it’s not gonna evaporate.
>>
<<@Zaimaen
says :
You forgot that the towel increases the surface area, allowing more water to evaporate and thus cooling it down. When you swipe it a second time, you also transfer more heat into the towel since it cooled down.

Physics forgot about 100% humidity you sweat no longer evaporates and it only does bad things, destroying your biggest organ, your skin.

<<@kahlzun

It's also worth noting that the evaporative cooling is also absorbing heat from the system, providing the benefit from both

Besides, wiping it off doesn't magically frickin cause more to come out. It just casts off sweat that still worked. Sweat doesn't like... lose potency as it sits on your skin lmfao

<<@Veptis
says :
medical and social norms shouldn't be ignored: the sweat brings out smell. Which is an important form of communication. So sweating and not hiding your smell is more honest.

<<@der.Schtefan
says :
Why not properly say kcal (kilo calories) instead of saying "calories" but then writing upper case "Cal", which is only used in the US on nutrional labels, and nowhere else in the world? The same goes for the insane idea of writing liter with a upper case L. Since the unit is not derived from a person's name, it is to be written lower case (as is the ml for milliliter), again only the US has this insane custom.
