Unless it’s a bigass finned aluminum heatsink, it probably won’t help.
One time it hit me, I was about 2 miles from home, and the heat was just unrelenting. I stopped to cool off, but it just made it worse. A nice young woman stopped and asked if I wanted some water. I said, “Yes, but not to drink. Let me pour it on my head!”
She thought I was nuts, because EVERYBODY thinks dehydration. But really it’s not that. It’s just hard for someone my size to dump heat. A splash of water makes a HUGE difference.
