don't know how cold it was but until the year 1912 people were allowed to walk out on the"Ice bridge" on the Niagara Falls in Canada
the ice bridge formed because of the tremendous volume of water ,it never stops flowing but the water and mist create ice formations along the banks of the falls and the river.this can result in mounds of ice as thick as 50 feet.If the winter is cold for long enough, the ice will completely stretch across the river and form what is know as the "ice bridge", which can reach for several miles down river until it reaches the area known as the lower rapids.
until 1912 visitors were allowed to actually walk out on the ice bridge and view the falls from below. on Feb. 24 1912 the local paper reported that at least 20,000 people watched or tobogganed on the ice. there were shops selling liquor,photographs and curiosities
on February 4 1912 the ice bridge broke up and 3 tourists lost their lives

scientists have done experiments at less then 1 kelvin(-272 celcius).
0 kelvin is absolute zero, which therotically can never be reached.
