This is problematic. You are putting MINUTES out of normal range.
Looking at
https://codecogs.com/library/computing/c/time.h/ctime.php?alias=mktime,
out-of-range minutes are not documented.

Also, see
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20104531/weird-mktime-logic-with-negative-seconds

Using out-of-range time fields is not advised.
