This study is not correct. In the army we trained in 100F and 100% humidity for weeks at a time. It wasn't pleasant but 50,000 soldiers get put through this at Fort Jackson every year.
Perhaps when the study claims that young people can only survive at 87 degrees they are averaging healthy and unhealty/obese people together to get that number? Anyway, they are certainly incorrect as it is just a fact that people work just fine in much higher temperatures than this study says is possible, for long periods and with no negative consequences.
