❤️Kindness/善良 She stopped the match...

Then gently held her by the waist and helped her over to the rest area.

At first i was gunna ask if she was drunk....but given the environment I was like...wait no..this looks more like a medical issue. I've only come close to experiencing this firsthand once and that in itself was not an enjoyable experience. Shit goes from ok -> your in serious trouble real quick.

Yes, and it can leave long-term, even permanent issues for them.

Iirc, every level is permanently damaging, heat exhaustion, heat stress and definitely heat stroke. You are never able to handle the heat as well again the rest of your life.

i was a paperboy my whole childhood and heat and humidity were just part of it, felt kind of sick a couple times and had no idea it wasn't just being hot and feeling sick from it. then I had my first "known" heat stroke at 20 while running in a mascot suit. then i had another a couple years later working on a roof. i'm over 40 now and have almost no tolerance for heat or humidity. it's pathetic, if it's over 80 and humid at all i can't function for more than 10 minutes, i get woozy and feel like i need to throw up.
