You get heat stroke because your body overheats and can't take it. Either because it is weak or old.

Dehydration or lack of body salts .

***Heat stroke is simply a body temperature above 40 degC. It typically happens when the body is in a warm environment and loses the ability to keep the core temp below 40. That can be because of the reasons above. It can also occur as a physiological side effect of many common compounds: booze, caffeine, amphetamines - anything that hampers the body's temperature regulation.

It happens anytime the body's heat production exceeds its ability to cool itself.****

Heat stroke is primarily dangerous to people because it occurs when the body's temperature regulation system is overwhelmed, leading to a rapid increase in body temperature. This can result in organ damage and potentially be fatal if not treated promptly.
