34°C is at best 3 degrees away from regular body temperature which, and this might come as a shock to you, means that the body’s built-in ability to regulate its temperature is already severely degraded. That is also not taking into account that, as other commenters mentioned, the temperatures in the sun can easily reach 40°C, which also BTW, is when cell lifespans in the body start plummeting.
All that to say: the mortality rates during summer aligning with the temperature disagree with your take.
I’ll take -30 over 30 any day of the week and that is also the exact same thing you’ll hear from me in winter. I can warm up relatively easily when it’s cold but there is fuck all I can do about 34°C in the shade (aside from staying indoors all day)
