People in Philadelphia have taken "beating the heat" to a whole new level: Dumpster pool parties.

The city won't issue permits for block parties that include a 'dumpster pool'.
"You would think this decision would not require an explanation," spokeswoman Karen Guss said in a statement obtained by NBC News.
