I've been in hotter places than that as a child and my organs are still functioning. Not that convincing a tale, got to be honest.

That is the internal body temperature at which the organs will start shutting down, but external (e.g. cabin) temperature can obviously go higher without issues. Kind of disingenuous from the author.

It's a reference to fever temperatures. Internal body temp != ambient air temp.
