We reference this MANY times during the show: Do NOT, under any circumstances or for any length of time, leave a pet or child unattended in a parked car in this heat.

It seems redundant, but sometimes it bears repeating as inevitably, every summer, you see a horrific news story of a pet or child dying.

First, check out this chart, showing just how quickly -- and how HOT -- a car gets in a short period of time.

It takes THIRTY MINUTES for a car to reach 120 degrees on an 85 degree day.  At 105 degrees, a pet or child is at a critical point where IRREVERSIBLE damage can be done.

Arizona Cardinals' Tyrann Mathieu stars in this powerful video showing just how quickly and how hot the inside of a car gets.  How long will this 5'9", 186 pound, 23-year old last?
