What are the impacts of the hottest summer on record?

Lewis Black 1:30
And this isn't just your classic heat wave that only kills some old people that no one cares about. The heat is so extreme, it's causing shit that's never happened before.
Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection) 1:42
Blazing temperatures outdoors can wreak havoc inside airplanes. These soda cans all exploded on Southwest flights due to extreme heat exposure. The problem is widespread. Southwest Airlines has reported about 20 employees have been injured by exploding soda cans this summer alone. What the hell?
Lewis Black 2:03
It's so hot that our soda cans are joining Al-Qaeda. I don't want to die in a plane crash because of Cherry Coke. I want to die because the Boeing guys forgot to tighten the screws. This is a disaster. What happens if planes have to get rid of soda? What am I supposed to drink on a flight now? Whiskey? Then another whiskey? What, am I supposed to mix the whiskey with another whiskey? Now I haven't had enough. You've had enough! This is clearly a reckoning, but I'm sure Ewans will take this as a sign that climate change is a serious threat and not a chance for an idiotic photo op.

At Death Valley National Park, they actually embraced the heat, encouraging tourists to take pictures in front of the park's thermometer, right now hovering around 130 degrees. You can definitely feel the heat on your skin. Honestly, it's definitely shocking. I don't know how anything can survive out here.
Lewis Black 3:15
Of course, nothing can survive in Death Valley. That's why they call it Death Valley. Guess what they sell at Burger King, you idiot. Now, you'd think park rangers would be warning people about the deadly heat. But instead, they're getting in on the fun.

park rangers have a tasty way to show you just how hot it is inside your car so rangers at sakuro national park by tucson made banana bread inside their car some other things you can make inside your car cookies eggs and even stuffed bell peppers who stuffs a bell pepper
Lewis Black 4:00
Yes, global warming means you can cook right in your car, which is great news for my new restaurant, Louis Black's Hyundai Sonata chimichangas. The secret ingredient is wiper fluid. So yes, as we've known for a while, every year the earth is getting hotter and hotter like me and Paul Rudd. And that's why we need every single government body working to fix the problem instead of jerking us around with elementary school science projects.
National Weather Service 4:39
The National Weather Service put on a colorful display of the record-setting heat wave hitting Las Vegas. Check out this time lapse of the extreme temps turning crayons into colored cream. This interesting experiment really puts in perspective just how hot it is out there.
Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection) 4:55
I feel like if you could just sort of freeze that and then, you know, make a little bit of art out of it. I think so, too. Right? Yes. Oh, that's cool. But I mean, really, not cool.
Lewis Black 5:09
We're all going to die. Thanks, National Weather Service. Now, we all know what it would look like if a pack of Skittles got its period. So quick safety tip. OK, if you're going to leave your kid in a hot car, remember to grab the crayons first. It's hard to know whether to be more worried about the record heat or the record stupidity.
