I don't see how a naked human can survice 0C for long. Maybe our gear and technology is better suited for cold temperatures.

All in all I would say the temperature tolerance is the same in both directions.

0C is pretty cold, but the Yaghan indians seemed to handle it, or close to it, basically naked:
