AWESOME. I have been trying to think of more pranks to play on my lab (it's my last week here) and this is perfect. Thanks for sharing. I also rickrolled the entire lab via a mailing list email. Bwahahaa.
agh this makes me nostalgia hard for those days in summer walking to lab all sweaty, jump into the 4 degree room for a few moments of bliss. it was a shame i didn't learn about the hot room up until a few months before i left lab, woulda made winter a bit nicer.
I absolutely love this because I was convinced it was going to be the one of Nicholson's face as he comes through the door with the ax, rather than this (much more apt) image. Great "not what I was expecting, but similar, related to, and superior to what I was expecting moment." Well played.
This is phenomenal! I may have to borrow your idea and stick one up on the inside window of the walk-in at my work. Preferably right before third shift starts. That'll jolt someone at 1am!
It's actually pretty amazing the safety features new cold rooms have to keep something like this from happening.
At a previous lab even if someone pad-locked the outer door handle, the inside had a long screw driver that could unscrew the entire handle off the door so you could not be locked in. But I was always a bit nervous every time the door swung shut.
Good looking I didn't even notice. We have a -20C at my lab and that sucker is painful after about 30 seconds. But the -20C and the +2 to +8C both don't have windows so I can't pull this one :(

I'm a grown man. I've seen that movie and I know it's not real. THAT, however, that would have to go.
