By the end of the century, scientists say being outside in Kuwait City could be life-threatening.

It was so hot in Kuwait last summer that birds dropped dead from the sky.

Sea horses boiled to death in the bay. Dead clams coated the rocks, their shells popped open like they'd been steamed.

Kuwait reached a scorching temperature of 127.7 degrees Fahrenheit, making it among the hottest places on earth.
