AeroMechanicalsays...I'm wondering if the thermometer he used wasn't really an accurate way to measure and that radiant heat may be more significant (measuring the temperature of his clothing would have been useful). On many occasions I've had to do manual labor in humid, over 120F buildings all day and shorter stints in 150-160F areas (attics, crawl spaces). It's not at all pleasant, and drinking a ton of fluids is important, but regardless this guy seemed to suffer more than he ought to have (not that I condone leaving children or animals in parked cars). I bet if he put a probe on the part of his shirt exposed to the sun, he would find it was well over 150F.

Yeah, he isn't counting radiant heat on his clothes/skin, which will definitely contribute to his internal temp.
He should have had a spotter, I cringed when he said nobody was nearby and he was in a secluded parking lot. Darwin candidate here...
siftbotBoosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by Mordhaus.
Adding video to channels (Eia, Timeshift) - requested by Mordhaus.
Jinxsays...An hour anywhere listening to that guitar loop would be totally unbearable.
PaybackBack when my dog was still with me (put to sleep at 17yrs for congestive heart failure, btw) when we went out in my convertible, and had to park somewhere, I brought along a big golf umbrella and left the roof down so he'd have some place out of the sun and still get cool air.
