What the actual f*ck?
A heat index of 82.2°C was recorded in Iran with a dewpoint of 36.1°C
Is this not recognized by WMO?
Record heat index for both Iran and Earth is still written as 81°C with a dewpoint of 35°C on the website of NOAA

Heat index isn't the actual temperature, it's how someone feels in an office looking at the numbers. The feel people need to pay money for global warming, so they report a higher heat index.

It takes humidity into account.
You mean it takes "feelings" into account. It's not objective. It's bullshit.
How do you separate humid heat from dry heat?
You measure humidity as one measurement and then you measure temperature as another measurement. You don't combine the two. They are different units.
What you are doing is like trying to add numbers and rainbows together.
You see a rainbow and it makes you feel some sort of subjective way, and then you are trying to add that to the number 2 and you come up with some imaginary number.
When humidity is higher, temperature feels higher.
There you go with your feelings again. Feelings are subjective.
Everybody will feel hotter at higher heat index compared to lower one
No, because everyone is accumulated to different weather patterns. People that have lived in Florida their entire life are very accustomed to humidity, but if you drop them in the high desert where your buggers turn to sand paper and your skin dries out it feels a lot hotter when it is dry. If you take someone that is acclimated to a dry climate like Eastern Oregon and toss them in Florida, they feel like they can't breath because the air is so thick with humidity. People respond differently based on what their body has adapted to. There is no everybody response because we all are accustom to different circumstances.
I personally have no issue being out in the sun for hours on end in 96 F in 86% humidity. My body is adapted that. My lungs work well in the tropics, I can breath easily and I can sweat easily to cool my body as the humid sea breeze whispers by, but this is where I was born. It is were my parents were born. It is were their parents were born. So there have been generations for my family's genetics to adapt to this climate. In contrast it could be 91 F in the high desert with 2% humidity and the heat will be oppressive. My nose dries out and crusts up. It burns. My eye balls dry out. My skin gets crusty. My mouth dries up. It's oppressive.
Psychological being without water and getting dried up like a prune "feels" hotter even though the temperature is lower.
"feelings" aren't objective measurements.
It was probably a mistake, they put the wrong temperature
By the way early one was not in Iran but Saudi Arabia
If 81.1°C heat index can happen, why shouldn't 82.2°C too?
42°C Temp with a dewpoint of 35°C when 81.1°C heat index happened.
Guinness Record World uses the earlier one, that is 81.1°C.
82.2°C one does not seem to be recognized by WMO
Never mind the bullshit heat index, what was the actual temperature?
Why is it bullshit?
A heat index over 80°C is just hell on earth
What was the actual temperature, genius? Not the stupid make believe heat index bullshit
It is not bullshit.
42°C with a dewpoint of 5°C has nothing to do with 42°C with a dewpoint of 35°C
They have no fucking thing at all in common with each other
It is not bulshit. Humidity makes a great deal of difference.
For 81.1°C heat index, it is 42°C with a dewpoint of 35°C. Do you understand how beyond terribe a dewpoint of 35°C?
This one is recognized by WMO. It is written on the website of NOAA. It was recorded in Saudi Arabia.
For 82.2°C heat index one, dewpoint is 36.1°C
