In search for the perfect holiday spot with endless summer, shining sun and hot weather, be cautious not to pick up the hottest place on Earth. The extremely high temperatures may turn your paradise into the hell. Literally.
Here is the list of the hottest (in terms of temperature) places on Earth.
Africa 57.8°C
Danakil depression in Ethiopia is considered to be the world’s hottest places. During the dry season the average temperature totals to 48°C (118 °F)!
However, that is EL Azizia in Libya that hit the record-breaking result of 57.8°C (135.9 °F). Well, that was on 13 September 1922, but, I bet, there’s still someone alive who remembers that hot day.
North America 56.7°C
Death Valley, California, U.S.A reached 56.7°C (134° F) on 10 July, 1913.

Asia 53.9°C
Israel reported 53.9°C (°F 129) in Tirat Tzvi in 1944. It is still hot nowadays in the country where the temperature exceeds 40°C on average during the summer.
Australia 50.7°C
It can get really hot (and bad) in Australia when bushfires and droughts spread throughout the continent. 2008/2009 summer with its 47°C was close to the record of 1960 when Oodnadatta in South Australia reported 50.7°C (123.3°F).
Europe 50°C
Try to walk through the centre of Sevilla in Spain at noon in July and you will know what it means to live in the hottest place in Europe. It easily gets over 40°C during the summer in the town. That was on 4 August 1881, however, when Sevilla reported 50°C (122 °F) – the hottest day recorded in Europe.
Funny, how this global warming this is happening. The majority of these all time highs were from 60-80 years ago

That picture of Lake Hume, Australia. It really isn't in a hot region , does get drought affected though. I used to live in Wodonga (Albury-Wodonga) and it was around a 15min drive out to the lake. Do miss the place.
I just do not find this funny ..you are making fun of a man who is in seoiurs need of professional help and/or medication. Even more troubling is the attempt at ridiculing this poor, feeble-minded old man's even more simple-minded followers.They are good people who really believe in Ron Paul as a savior and redeemer, and for you all to laugh, and make fun of their some what underdeveloped intellect is mean.Instead of unloading derision on these people you all should be lifting them .encourage them to take part in the political process. If they have completed the finger painting class or they have decided to stop chewing their toenails in the corner, then they should be allowed to take part in the political process.Shame on all of you.
It reached 60C once in kuwait
