Indeed. There's a whole section in (I think - it's been a shamefully long time since I last re-read the book) William L. Shirer's The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich about the research the Nazis did into treatments for hypothermia and other consequences of harsh environment exposure, for the benefit of Luftwaffe pilots. Mind you, they did it by freezing concentration camp prisoners to death and carefully observing the process. Sixty years later a lot of that data is still used every day in certain circles, because it's the best data ever collected on such phenomena, even if the people who benefit from it today would rather not think about how it was collected.

Shadolu's approach to perfecting Weapon X was... similar.
