The Daily Mail reports that teenagers combating a 34°C heatwave have converted a living room into a swimming pool. Commentators note that it could be dangerous move for many reasons:

As well as posts congratulating the boys' creative way of keeping cool in the summer heat, there were others who branded them 'idiots'.

'The water is about half a metre high, which means it is about half a ton for every square metre. I wonder if their neighbours will gather altogether to give them a good lesson?,' one said.

'I hope the electric plugs are way above the water level,' another added, while a third person said: 'I hope they cut their nails really well before going inside...what if they break the film.'

Regardless, the pictures are funnier than the hottub Cadillac.

  Is it

  * Ukranian or Russian
  * 34C [sic] or 36C [sic]?

  The pics were funny if pretty crazy though.

  Ukraine, Russia. It's all the same thing, right? It's not like anyone'll get mad at you for mixing those two up.

  Not the 34C I was hoping for.
