Heatstroke is a condition produced by your body heating, usually as a result of lengthened susceptibility to or physical exertion in high temperatures. This most serious form of heat injury, heat stroke, can transpire if your body temperature rises to 104 F (40 C) or higher, the body becomes very hot.

Eventually, that starts to influence the brain, and that's when people begin to get messy and can dissipate consciousness. Other common symptoms involve nausea, seizures, agitation, disorientation, and seldom loss of consciousness or coma.

A heat stroke is a condition where the body temperature regulators fails to regulate when under extreme heat, that could often lead to fever and unconsciousness. Heat strokes can damage the brain and internal organs. Because it suddenly shut downs everything on our body and system.
