The salt lowers the temperature at which water freezes so your hand is made colder than if there was so ice. Mythbusters did an experiment wherein they could cool a six pack to a pleasing temperature in mere minutes using salt and ice

in the initiating it is carefully stupid to do even although they do it at my college too. Ice is chilly and salt is made by using the worst explosive and the most poisionous checmical blended to make salt. So even as the salt like the kind you placed on your driveway melts the ice or snow away and it is going to attempt this on your pores and skin too because even as the water hits the ice it has a reaction that dissolves. So under no circumstances attempt this because your pores and skin will burn, peel and probably come off.

I am not sure, however, I do know people add salt to ice to keep the ice frozen while making homemade ice cream in a ice cream processor.
That might have something to with it.
