Hypothermia can lead to several things. Shivering uncontrollably, cold hands and feet, sluggish thinking, amnesia, frostbite, 'paradoxical undressing' (I'll explain that one later) and if it continues long enough, death.
Paradoxical undressing is when the person becomes extremely disoriented, confused and combative. During this phase of hypothermia, the person will start discarding clothing, forcing the body to lose more heat faster.
