  1. Hypothermia below 30 °C and hyperthermia abouve 40 °C.


  2. like 109 F

    highest i heard was 108 F and he was still living.

  3. 109 or 110.

  4. not sure but over 40 C is pretty dangerous i think

  5. I think its 124, but when you reach 110 you go into shock.

  6. Hypothermia (Low) - Below 30 °C (86.0 °F), the exposed skin becomes blue and puffy, muscle coordination becomes very poor, walking becomes almost impossible, and the victim exhibits incoherent/irrational behavior including terminal burrowing or even a stupor. Pulse and respiration rates decrease significantly but fast heart rates (ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation) can occur. Major organs fail. Clinical death occurs.

    Hyperthermia (High) - Body temperatures above 40°C (104 °F) are life-threatening. This compares to normal human body temperature of 36-37°C (97-98°F). At 41°C (106 °F), brain death begins, and at 45°C (113°F) death is nearly certain. Internal temperatures above 50°C (122°F) will cause rigidity in the muscles and certain, immediate dea
