Heat Stroke is when the body cannot regulate its temperature properly and more heat is absorbed then the body can handle. Heat stroke is also know as hyperthermia or sunstroke, and usually stems from exposure to an excessive amount of heat. People with heat stroke experience an uncontrollable rise in body temperature, and must seek medical attention immediately!
