Notes:
This is a second mine rescuer on the same team, same day, same activities. As you can see he did not do as well.
Like the first person he heated up while exploring the hot stope. However, working in the cooler areas still caused his core temperature to rise as if he were still in the hot stope.
At the 11:35 point this person volunteered that he was not feeling well and sat down, with his mask still on, in the area the other miner maintained his temperature while working. Note that even though he was now sitting he continued to heat up at the same rate even though his heart rate recovered.
It should also be noted that his core temperature was 101.5 º F at the point he volunteered that he was ill.
This miner continued to overheat while resting until told to remove his mask and given cold water at 12:15, having reached a temperature of 102ºF before the trainer intervened.
