It depends massively on the humidity of the environment as well as the temperature.
If it's a wet environment (eg tropical rain forest) sweat cannot evaporate as the air is already satuarated.
As the body produces large amounts of heat from almost every biological process (especially the contraction of muscles) I would imagine a environment temperature over about 37C would kill you as your body would no longer be able to dump enough heat.
You would then heat up past this point and the body would die from hyperthermia (as opposed to hypo which is too cold) when it gets to about 40C
It its a dry environment all bets are off.. with plenty of water people can sit in saunas at STUPID temperatures. I think 80C or 90C I kid you not!!

∙ 12y agoThe highest temperature someone has survived was in 1980, when a man had a fever of 115.7*F and lived.

Time is a factor: people have survived a day at 106,
but at 108 even minutes are critical.

What is the highest body temperature at which a human can survive?
you should probably go to the hospital if you get to 104 or 105.
What is the highest temperature that human can live in?
-4oC
What is the highest tempeture could a human survive?
Human cells start to die at 106 Fahrenheit although the body may survive at higher temperatures. Short exposure up to 131 Fahrenheit is possible as long as dehydration is avoided
Can a human live with a temperature of 200 degrees?
No, they would die long before reaching anywhere near that. A person typically dies if they have a fever over 105 degrees.
Is human skeleton external or internal?
internal
What is the highest body temperature at which a human can survive?

What temperature does typhus need to survive?
It needs the human bodies temperature to survive.
What is the highest fever a human can survive?
106
What is the highest temperature that human can live in?
-4oC
Why can't a human stand on Jupiter?
Jupiter's gravity is too much for a human to stand. And they could not survive the temperature or atmosphere either.
What was the lowest internal body temperature ever recorded in human being who went to survive?
53 F
What is the highest tempeture could a human survive?
Human cells start to die at 106 Fahrenheit although the body may survive at higher temperatures. Short exposure up to 131 Fahrenheit is possible as long as dehydration is avoided
What is the highest survivable drop into water?
The highest drop a human can survive is a - 67 Meters - 73 Yards - 220 Feet - 2640 Inches - 6,705.6 Centimeters - 67,056 Millimeters
Why is it necessary for bacteria to be able to withstand fluctuations in temperature within the human body?
A bacterium's cell membrane allows it to withstand fluctuations in temperature within the human body. This is necessary in order for the bacterium to survive in that environment.
Is there going to be no Earth because of global warming?
The earth can survive a very much hotter temperature. Human and animal life can not.
Can a human survive on Antarctica where the temp is below 50 degree Celsius?
A human will freeze to death within a short period -- less than one day at this temperature.
Why do you only feel hot or cold when the temperature is in the extremes?
Homeostasis. This is a process of the human body that helps regulate the internal temperature. Unless the external temperatures are in extremes, your metabolism will be able to keep a normal temperature (around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit).
