Hottness! 100° F + / 38 °C +

How do you stay cool on those really hot days?

I don't move at all.

Luckily, 38.6C is the highest temperature ever recorded here, so I don't really have to worry about it getting that bad.

I do NOT do this:

Earlier this week a man, who admits that the stunt is a bit crazy, ran a mile in Death Valley wearing a full-fledged Darth Vader costume. Jonathan Rice, a Longmont, Colo., resident completed the stunt for his third straight year, this time in 129-degree heat on Sunday, according to the Longmont Times-Call.

Rice told the paper he fell in love with "heat running" back in 1996 when he visited Death Valley and tried to do a half a mile, with his friend driving slightly ahead of him in a car for safety. He struggled through that run, but he was hooked.

Then in 2010, he decided to add a bit of a twist to the challenge: A hot costume with limited breathing potential.

It became the official Darth Vader challenge and has attracted a bit of a following, according to the report.

Sounds crazy? Even Rice says it's not highly recommended.

"There is no good reason for it other than the sheer joy of seeing the looks on the faces of the people quietly trying to escape the cloying heat, windows rolled up and AC blasting ... while you thunder by, cape flying, in 129 degree heat!" he wrote on his website (which is called DarthValley.com).

He finished this year's mile in a whopping 6 minutes and 36 seconds and is hoping to be recognized for the hottest verified mile in history.

I just stay inside with the air conditioning when its 100+ out. Its way too hot to do anything without being miserable, except going swimming of course.

I do the insane and play Tennis.. And then come back in and just let my girlfriend throw ice cubes at me and down my shirt. It cools me down and she just enjoys throwing things at me.
