"Smugly"

44 comments

I'm guessing thick and burny...
- Maybe more like extremely painful into no pain. The pain would be overwhelming any sensation and you’d quickly destroy any receptors in the area plunged, is what I’m saying.
  
  My man you aren't supposed to release need to know information like this on the internet smh. Going to get lemmy shutdown.
  
  Yeah the only thing I'm wondering about is whether you'd actively feel the pain before the receptors are destroyed. Not sure the brain would start interpreting the catastrophic receptor firing as pain in time for it to matter before the signals just shut down.
- Yeah you know, lava-y
- So, gonorrhea. But a lot and suddenly and for the forearm.

"Plunging"? I call BS, isn't lava way too thick for that?
- Your mom's too thick to plunge
  
  Thank God I have a snake!
  
  Boom roasted.
- I’m pretty sure you’d lose more than just your arm if you were close enough to lava to “plunge” any sort of member into it.
  Lava is typically 1300 F/700 C. Just exposure to the heated air around it would instantly burn you all over
  
  Am Anikin. Can confirm.
  
  You can actually walk on some lava (with boots.)
  
  Nah I've been a few feet from flowing lava. It's really really hot, but not like, instant death hot.
  
  I work at a blast furnace, you can get alarmingly close to liquid iron before you are permanently injured.
  
  It's fine as long as you have the high ground.
  
  Nope
- Yeah. It's molten rock. You can't sink or plunge into it.
  
  Just like you can't plunge your arm into melted ice... xD

Hot.
- Thank you Philip J Fry
  
  Professor! Lava! Hot!

Ahh "burny" "melty"

The hero you seek.

- “My leg was in half, my bone was sticking out,” he told KHON. “There was blood squirting out.”
  Doctors at the Hilo Medical Center were able to save Clinton’s leg, and he’s been ordered to stay off of it for six weeks, the outlet reported.
  Jesus christ.

Man who still has both arms gives two thumbs up to lava guy.
Smugly.

Damn, I hope he finds it again!

I guess, after an instant, all nerves responsible for pain are just vaporized by the lava so it would feel numb or like nothing at all.
I'm guessing he still feels quite dumb, though. Nothing will help that pain go away.
