    To learn more about this topic, start your googling with these keywords:
    Hyperthermia: a medical condition where an individual's body temperature is elevated beyond normal
    Hypothermia: a medical doncition that occurs when an individual's body loses heat faster than it can produce heat, causing a dangerously low body temperature
    Thermoregulation is the ability of an organism to keep its body temperature within certain boundaries, even when the surrounding temperature is very different
    Denaturation: the alteration of a protein shape through some form of external stress (for example, heat), so that it can no longer carry out its cellular function

      the danger is that as you get hotter, your heat producing chemical reactions get faster. this means that it continuously gets more difficult for your body to cool down on its own. thats where the excessive sweating comes in and why you have to hydrate. if the fever gets out of hand at any point, you have to cool them down or else their body will be unable to do anything and their temperature will continue to rise until irreversible damage occurs and they die.

    I though this would be more of an analysis: at what speed could each temp kill you, and how close is it to your body temp? Like some sort of integral analysis of killing speed vs temperature. Obviously being superheated to 10,000,000 degrees will kill you instantly, as would superchilling you to 1K, but is there some sort of formula?

    I would add, that warming up is way easier than trying to cool down. If you end up in a cold environment without adequate supplies, you can keep yourself warm for a little while by being active, jumping around, etc. Won't help for long if you end up naked in the arctic at -50C, but you'd still be alive longer, then if you were in a desert at +50C.

    Oh I thought this was going to be about the temperature of the surrounding environment.
    If we assume a default temperature of 20 C (68 F, regular room temparature, no sweating or shivering, no special clothes needed)
    Go up 30 degrees to 50 C (122 F) and it becomes very uncomfortable but survivable without special clothing.
    Go down 30 degreed to -10 C (14 F) and you won't last long in just your undies
    And saunas are usually between 65 C and 90 C (mostly around 80 C). Imagine sitting in the nude in -40 C (-40 F) for 10 minutes. Saunas are dry heat tho (even with the steam from pouring water on the hot rocks). Humidity makes a big difference. Especially for heat as it makes sweating less effective.

    • @ThatOneGengar
      @ThatOneGengar 3 года назад +7

      Our bodies are very sensitive to change, and so anything that changes too rapidly when we're ill or injured can cause shock.
      Essentially if our bodies detect that we are in some life-threatening situation we experience vasoconstriction, meaning the blood vessels in our extremities narrow. In the case of hypothermia, if you warm someone too quickly and they go into shock, all that cold blood will shoot to the middle of their bodies and cause even more problems.
      This is also the reasoning for why if someone is experiencing hyperthermia (extreme heat) that you don't allow them to cool down too fast by putting them into an iced bath or anything. Simply remove as much clothing as you can and get them to (preferably) a shady and air-conditioned spot with some water to sip on.

    That doesn't really answer the question though. At least not the one I was imagining when seeing the still and the title. I was assuming we were talking about which will make you die faster if you were exposed. As in, how long will it take to die in 120℉ weather vs 40℉ weather?
    Either way though, we still didn't talk about how fast each extreme kills you. It was really just answering how much of a difference from normal can our bodies handle? In other words, we can handle being colder than our normal than warmer than our normal by double (-40℉ vs +20℉). Which is interesting, but also not surprising since that's also the case with our weather. The maximum high temperatures here on Earth are only 20℉ to 30℉ above our body temperature but the lows are WAY below our body temperature (max of -126℉).

    While both extreme heat and cold can be deadly, the data suggests that cold is more deadly than heat. This is because cold can exacerbate pre-existing medical conditions, cause direct effects such as frostbite and hypothermia, and lead to a rapid loss of heat from the body.

And it’s also possible that your usual body temperature is slightly lower than average as well, so it’s definitely possible to have a fever when you’re measuring 37°C.

    For some reason I have a temperature sensitivity. If I get even just a little to hot and I get sweaty I can't breathe and I get rashes in different parts of my body and I get heat stroke and pass out after being in the summer heat after less then 15 mins.
    And in the winter I have to bundle up and wear extra layers and I can't be out in the cold longer then 15 mins. My nose gets red and cold, my fingers go blue and numb, and my entire body feels frozen from the inside out. And if I stay out in the cold to long I can very easily get pneumonia, bronchitis, or strep throat.
    One summer day in my early teens I went to a park near my house to meet up with some friends and I stayed out for a couple hours and was ready as a lobster and could barely walk or breathe and while on my way back home I collapsed from heat stroke and my friends just left me unconscious in the middle of the road, I woke up about 20-30 mins after and staggered home and my mom helped cool me down by giving me a few glasses of water and got me in for a cool shower.
    And pretty much almost every winter I get sick from the cold air and it reacks havoc on my lungs.

      It depends on personal tolerance, how well you have eaten, and how active you are while it’s cold. I can personally tolerate temperatures down to 20 degrees Fahrenheit with no winter clothing so long as I keep moving and eat plenty. But someone from the tropics would freeze much sooner even if they kept the same level of activity and food consumption. It doesn’t take long to acclimate though, typically within two weeks your body has adjusted to be able to handle current temperatures better.
