    TV doctor Michael Mosley went for a walk while holidaying in Greece recently, the region currently experiencing a heatwave, with temperatures in the high 30's and low 40's. 

    Sadly, Dr Mosley did not return from that walk and his body was found days later. His death, reportedly due to the extreme heat.
