No. Touching dry ice is like touching fire. Its so cold that instead of a freezing feeling you feel a burning feeling. This happens because the dry ice will kill your skin cells and create a mark very similar to a burn mark. Do not touch dry ice for pains sake and for the damage it will cause the skin on your hands.
