It doesn't even boil water.
It's slightly above my core body temperature. So yes, literally I experience it all the time.
Sauna. It's literally boiled water. And it's pretty safe for average human.
yeah and? Last i checked i'm not a pot of water.
to be clear, it's not slightly above, it's high enough that you're getting into fever range, a few degrees over that and it starts to become deadly. 105f internal temp is potentially fatal so.
the average body temperature ranges about 2 degree fahrenheit. 97f to 99f that's about the entire extent of that. 100F specifically is slightly over that in terms of general temperature experience.
thank god, i was about to do hard labor in a sauna. Not to mention this is also a sauna, not direct infrared and UV exposure to direct sunlight. Not to mention the literal temperature of the environment around it, and the indirect reflected heating that you'll receive.
guess i should now argue that cold temperatures aren't dangerous because people do ice baths regularly.
