Heatstroke is a serious problem and the heatwaves that cause it, claim more lives on average than any other weather event in USA. While generally thought to affect the elderly and the very young, it can affect people of all ages, not just because of the heat in the environment (classic heatstroke) but also because of activity (exertional heatstroke). The problems caused by heatstroke sometimes happen but don't appear clinically, like GI ischemia.

As someone who grew up in the desert I can't believe how people underestimate heat. It's 100 degrees in the shade today lol. I bring a half gallon of water when I go fishing and that's usually only a couple hours and I'm in the shade and I still rip through that water.
Most people do. But we're talking about someone into crypto currencies here, they're usually not the brightest.
This was why we built our architecture to adapt to the heat, i.e. collonaded sidewalks, larger windows, higher ceilings.
@@alkaholic4848 based but true lmao
Yeah, I was a fence builder for 30+ years in the Southeastern U.S. where the summers can get so hot and humid that after just a few minutes outside at 7 am you are already soaking wet with sweat. The importance of staying properly hydrated cannot be overstated, even in winter. Also keeping properly clothed in layers in the winter. Hypothermia is as dangerous as heat stroke.
Just this summer, the temperature inside my house one day reached 104 (40 c). I am a desert man well adapted to desert conditions, and I cope with the condition by using air condition. This guy was an idiot
I had a heatstroke at the beach once. Thankfully my family noticed quickly that I had fallen unconscious. They poured cool water over my head which brought me back to consciousness and took me to a nearby clinic. I came out without acquiring any disability. However I do get migraines sometimes since then.
Glad you’re still with us mon.
They should’ve picked you up and threw you into the ocean
I had heat stroke once, thankfully I was in the shower when I lost consciousness AND I woke up before I drowned. Ya, 2 gallons of water wasn't enough for a 40 mile bike ride at 104 F. Our bodies go through water FAST when it is hot out!
This bro could have been so rich right now if he just bought himself an air conditioner.
Seriously, why was he so against buying an AC? It seemed he tried to go out of his way to avoid either drinking more water or buying an AC.
the real man lived, the thermal surge protector in the computer turned it off before he could die, it made it to the news but chubbyemu carried the story on.
Thermal shutdown for a computer doesn't happen until 80-90°C. Computers running at full power can stay at 75°C consistently and be fine. Meanwhile if the room gets up to like 40°C from not moving enough of the heat out, you'd end up getting heatstroke. The heat of the room definitely won't be enough to shut down the computer.
or he could just sleep elsewhere other than his flaming hot room
@@redbetta2191 bitcoins weren't that expensive as it was today
“It’s not that hot” he told himself, as the room burst into flames.

@ everyone asking why he didn't just drink water or go somewhere cool - dehydration and hyperthermia impair your reasoning gradually, so as your condition becomes more serious you become less and less capable of realizing what's going on and doing something about it. Ever tried to get a drunk person (who is chemically dehydrated) to drink water and they're like 100% convinced everything is fine and you should let them drink more booze? It's similar
But how do you not get uncomfortable enough before dehydration & hyperthermia to do something about it before it gets too late. I have severe heat intolerance, I cannot comprehend just sitting in a sweltering room. I drank an entire bodyarmor drink just listening to the description of heat and dehydration in this video!!
@@morticiaheisenberg9679 His reasoning was severely impaired. Also, some people can't pay for ac.
Edit: Also, sometimes extreme heat just feels warm.

I have a grandma who's health has been deteriorating lately. My mom thinks it just because she's old and her age is catching up, but my uncle who lives with her likes to keep the AC and Heater off regardless of how hot or cold it gets. He let his pipes burst one winter and every summer he lets the inside of the house reach over a hundred degrees.

Great content
Last year in the UK, we had a heatwave that hit 40°C (104°F) - our heatwaves are always humid which makes sweating to cool off kinda useless. Most of our buildings are not designed to deal with extreme heat either. I unfortunately also happened to catch Covid at the time and had a fever on the hottest day. I live with my parents and we did everything we could to avoid me spreading Covid to them which meant I stayed in my room with the door shut.
On one particular night during that time, it was still over 30°C (86°F) at night (outside, I daredn’t find out the temperature in my room!) and I remember stumbling over to my window, climbing up to sit on the window sill and leaning out to try and get some air and cool down. I genuinely thought I was going to die because I just couldn’t cool down - it was very scary!
After the heatwave settled and I recovered from Covid, I thought “wow, I was being so melodramatic” but watching this video now, I wonder if I was closer to a serious medical episode than I perhaps realised.
My parents did everything they could to keep me hydrated, left me frozen water bottles wrapped in tea towels to “cuddle” to keep cool. Their efforts likely made all the difference.
(I’m quite independent normally, and once I recovered, prepared and cooked lots of meals for them to say thank you for all they did).
(Oh… and neither of them caught Covid off of me so our collective effort worked there too!)
Did Peter get back to you regarding the teabag drama?
If there's anything Chubbyemu has taught me, it's that doing almost anything that's unhealthy enough will somehow cause brain swelling.
Every moment is a big brain moment.
If u breathe you will blow your mind

Dehydration, overhydration. You name it
He taught me that The Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell at 10:01
The message isn't really "don't mine bitcoin", it's "drink water".
Also use air conditioning if running a datacentre on any scale and yes if you are running that many machines at home you are running a datacentre for all practical purposes there is a reason why AC failure is in the risk assessment for any responsible commercial datacentre machines will kill any human in the space shortly before they die of thermal failure themselves.

All your videos are so good, thank you so much for all this useful & helpful information
When hurricane Sally went through, it knocked our power out for a few weeks, which meant no AC. The daytime wasn't so bad because we still had water and could take frequent showers, but our bodies weren't used to sleeping in that kind of heat. When Chubbyemu described the guy's symptoms getting out of bed, I had flashbacks. We were so sick for days. We managed to get ahold of a generator and some window units for the bedrooms and it was literally a lifesaver. I really don't know how people used to survive in the south prior to AC.
People adapt. I live in a really hot climate and it reaches up to 48°celsius in summers. And above 40 can kill you. And I even workout in that without A c but I just realized that could be so dangerous and especially the deaths of labour and street vendors these days is alaraming
@@syedaziz1641 Being hot is one thing. Getting hot during the day or when you're working out is fine, especially if you have some way to cool off after a duration. When you're awake, you're able to monitor your condition. But sleeping hot is completely different. It messes with your body rhythms and affects your head, your muscles, your movements, everything. I'm not just talking about it being uncomfortable so maybe you wake up more than you're used to, and so maybe you feel a little tired the next day. Nah, it's not like that. It almost seems like the opposite actually happens, where you end up sleeping more deeply than is healthy. You wake up fevery, numb, and just all over sick. I grew up without ac, but I lived in a different part of the country where the temp and humidity aren't so severe. Here, with the temp getting hotter every year, ac is pretty much a necessity these days. I live in an area that wasn't even inhabited until the 50/60', when ac's began to become accessible.
I think way-back-when houses were designed to account for the hot temperatures. Nowadays it's probably presumed that people are going to have air conditioning.
A place like Florida was swamp land for many years and most avoided the place until AC was invented and then it became a popular place
Jalousy windows, swamp coolers, and large screens / shades to keep sun off the house and windows

I remember developing a heatstroke when I was standing outside in central Texas for two hours when it was 108º outside. There is "unpleasant" and then there is "profoundly unpleasant" and I really never want to go through something like that again. It is the closest thing I can think of to actually going to Hell -- and then coming back to describe the experience.
Nor was I the only one who developed heatstroke that day. It was a PR disaster for my school, and the next year the school switched to telephone registration.

@@boardcrf2763 If it will reach the point of killing or maiming someone is dependent on a ratio of heat to humidity and to a much lesser extent the individuals acclimation.
In general higher humidity equals lower required temp to start killing someone, gulf countries being often rather dry in air humidity may be hotter in temp but feel "cooler" to the individual

If you feel too sick to drink water, regardless of the underlying reason, you really shouldn't wait more than a day before going to the doctor. It can be hard to work up the presence of mind and the motivation, because you're probably spacing out and the nausea prevents you from wanting to do basically anything, but it's really important. If it's someone else, you have to be the voice of reason because they're not in the right state to make that call.
This needs to be pinned bro
Yeah, I once unnecessarily prolonged my recovery from an upset stomach by not drinking enough for days. My boyfriend had to force me to drink tea spoon by spoon. It was awful.
Sadly this is a perverse incentive generated by the high fees for emergency ambulance services in the US I suspect. Here in the UK at least if I felt unable to even hold down water and had no alternate means I would dial 999 for immediate ambulance transport to the hospital without a second thought but the NHS provides us with the confidence to take the cautious route and request help without fear of ruin. Honestly, I think this should be the case anywhere how should it be any different calling an ambulance when in fear for your health than calling the police when in fear of crime emergency services should be available in emergencies period any disincentive to use them when the situation calls for it is perverse. Don't get me wrong this might encourage some to make the call when it is not entirely necessary but an assessment would quickly determine admission is not necessary seems like a minor cost when considering the cost of reversing the incentive as the cost then is often a human life.
Also true for diabetic ketoacidosis.
@@seraphina985 no one worries about ambulance fees in an emergency situation in the US. first of all, most people have insurance that will cover it. most people that DON'T have insurance are on Medicaid (or Medicare if they're old) which covers 100%. please don't buy into mainstream media narratives. aside from covid-related economic issues that virtually every country is foolishly bringing upon themselves, the US is a very wealthy nation and no one is dying from lack of access to medical care, and certainly not to ambulances. even if you can't pay they have to treat you... the money part, if you're even on the hook for it at all (the vast majority aren't), comes afterward, and if you don't pay, it just hurts your credit like anything else. the average cost for an ambulance ride is around 1000 bucks... sometimes less sometimes more. but that's not usually the cost an insured person will see, though they may have to pay for part of it. but poor people are on medicaid so they won't pay anything.

Music is really fitting the story bro!
Came close to this the first year after I moved to Florida. When I went to bed, it was actually chilly enough to have the heater on. Morning came, along with the sun, and it became 90 outside. The heater kept running because its thermostat was a joke.
I woke up to it being over 100 - maybe well over it - in the room. I could hardly get out of bed, but managed to stagger forth into the almost-as-hot rest of the house. Fortunately, I was able to drink some ice water as I opened up the main door to the outside, where it was "only" in the 90s. I felt that thing where my eyes seemed to be getting pushed out! Now I'm a bit freaked knowing what THAT was about.
After standing on the porch in a semi-stupor for an hour or so, finishing my ice water, I was mostly back to normal. I went back inside and turned on all of the A/Cs, then waited outside for another half hour for it to cool down. Fortunately, I ended up fine, no hospital trips. Later I got chided by a neighbor for not respecting the heat, and warned that that's how northerners end up dead right after they move to Florida. I think it was a little late for that warning, because I'd already learned my lesson!
As someone who frequently has to teach scouts about the dangers of heat stroke, this video was _deeply_ informative

Where I'm from we get conscripted to army/police/civil defense for 2 years. We have constant 30°c weather at 99% humidity.

There was also a body cooling unit in my camp.

He shouldn’t have stopped mining bitcoin, he should’ve learned to drink water, and INSTALL THE DAMN A/C

Imagine deciding you’d rather not be worth hundreds of millions because you didn’t feel like putting in an air conditioner.
If you feel like your gonna throw up when you drink water, drink slowly, same with food, you still need those
think of it like this, he had computers running and generating money constantly, it's easy to pass off the symptoms as just a flu or something. Heatstroke kills because you underestimate just how hot your body gets
@@Roboshi2007 yeah but even if you dont think that its dangerous, wouldnt you still feel uncomfortable? Even if he didnt want to buy an AC, he could just have left the room and slept in another one...
This is how my aunt died one hot summer in California years ago (heatstroke) this give me more understanding of her death. Thank you
This guy isn't the sharpest tool in the drawer. All he had to do was exhaust the computers out the window. No wonder he couldn't get hired as an engineer. Also he quit mining bitcoin before the boom. He would be a millionaire today.
He could still be a millionaire if he held onto a few hundred of those bit coins. 100 Bitcoins have a market value of 1.01 million dollars.
@@Novusod quite possible with the time he was mining at, but theres no telling when he would have sold. selling at the peak would have been 50BTC for $1million for example. but given how long he would have been holding on to that, its quite unlikely he ever kept on to that much for over a half decade
He also should've drank more water
@Movie Games - sharpest tool in the drawer? Nobody keeps Tools in a drawer. The saying is,
He is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

@@asmongoldsmouth9839 Do you not keep at least on screwdriver in you house?
"He vowed to never mine another bitcoin again"... Jesus dude, just use some air conditioning for the portable heaters you're using. Hell, step OUTSIDE once in a while to cool yourself down if you insist on sitting in a room that's over heated. There's so many solutions to this yet, his takeaway was to just never do it again.
Indeed it is certainly doable that said my own company part-owns a datacentre and we specifically have air conditioning failure in our risk assessment for a reason. It's a large building but with 45k machines inside drawing an average of 3.5MW the air conditioning needs to be considered as essentially a life support system the building would become uninhabitable quite rapidly without it. Granted there are three independent HVAC systems for this reason each on a separate power supply (The facility has triple redundant power also though because it is needed to provide the eight nines uptime guarantee ie 99.999999%)
That's what I'm saying! This isn't some cake paradox. You can have your Bitcoin, and your health too.
@@Nightriser271828 Indeed it's an engineering problem but a very solvable one. From my perspective, it's little different from designing a bridge or building sure if you fuck it up people die but the limits of human tolerance are fairly well understood and engineering to ensure a defined habitable space remains habitable is solvable.
I took it to be more emotional. There's things I don't do anymore or places I don't go, because they remind me of things that are mearly sad. If I could be reminded of the fact I almost *died in my sleep* and now have a *permanent brain injury* because of my computers, I'd be hesitant to keep them running too, because that's all I would be able to think about.
I mean they didnt say he gave away or something to all his remaining bitcoin . They said he just stopped mining them . So he may still be able tk be rich .
excellent videos, very informative

yeah for real he should have just got better air conditioning, drank water and kept mining bitcoin, he would be rich AF now

Crazy how the body reacts to external stimuli like heat or cold and other things, or trauma.
Truly is a marvel.
Mining wasn't the problem. Not drinking water for days, however, is dangerous.
Yeah he doesn't sound too bright.
Mining by itself no, but combined with the heatwave it caused his body to overheat to the point where he felt sick and couldn't eat or drink. That's explained pretty well in the video.
Chandler he wasn’t drinking water for days before the stroke though, so not drinking water was also a part large of the problem
@@AlphaCarinae Yes, this makes sense, stop getting money, because...money bad? It couldn'tve just been negligence to drink water and keep the temperature of the room down, no, it was obvious entirely the fault of them mining.

He didn’t have to stop mining... just don’t overheat yourself.
that's why a lot of ppl doing it to make money do it in another building separate from the one they live in. The heat just gets to be so much.
Bitcoin isn't worth it these days regardless.
@@johnathanvarga8883 Well if you use the power from the wall then yes. The thing is if you can justify it and speculate that you will make it back an array of solar panels and hook the ASICs up to that grid then it will be profitable after a few years so you do need to make sure that you get solar panels that do not need expensive maintenance that will take away from the profit margin making it either take longer or still be in the negatives. The major expense is power not internet so if you can make your own electricity then you take out one of the highest costs so 2nd highest is the cost of the ASICs then way below that is the cost of internet.
also UNDERclock your rig, that heat is wasted electicity, and usually power consuption goes up exponentially when overclocking
Marcos Aurelio overclocking gets you more bitcoin and faster though. Yes it does put more strain on utilities but it can be worth it
thank you sir
its amazing how such a seemingly minor thing can damage the brain so. I feel like people have survived much worse and in better condition and yet people can have permanent damage or even die from the smallest things.
That room must have been hotter than a sauna, I can’t even comprehend how he could sleep in such conditions in the first place.

@@merky1493 i never had an AC this summer i got one later on not even fans worked it was so hot that fans didnt work because the fan was just blowing the same hot air on me had to wait till night when it would finally be cooler
Yea, that room must've been hell, although it definitely wasn't sauna temperature. Saunas are usually like 80°C, but because they're super humid, it puts a layer of water on your skin that protects you from the heat. There was no humidity in that room though, so there was no protective water barrier for the heat which made it worse.
Boy, you really know your chemistry. Impressive.
I used to be an hvac installer, in the summer heat waves attic temperatures could reach 140-150. I've had several severe reactions to such heat. But a mans gotta work!

He could spend thousands on GPUs, but couldn't be bothered to upgrading his cooling units...
Better cooling units would actually dissipate heat into the room more quickly
@Hernando Malinche Cooling the GPUs increases their performance and lifetime, meaning more money now and later.
@@seanoconnell3559 had you said that the cooling units produced heat in the dissipation process, raising the total amount generated, I would agree with you. But his system was at equilibrium, so your point about the rate of dissipation is null. Besides, I was referring to room AC, as using hot air as a heat sink is an ill-fated venture.
He could have just bared his windows and set up a rig that pointed the pc towers fans out the window
Those aren't going to prevent heat from going into his room... What do you think coolers do?
