It's amazing how fast and how high the temperature rises.  177 degrees isn't safe for even a full grown adult.  As you can see this officer's heart rate went from a resting normal rate of 70 to 150.  Twice what the normal heart rate would be.

So once again, please don't leave pets or children in the car even for a few minutes with the windows cracked.  It can become un-bearingly hot very fast
