Yeah. You know all those is movies and stuff where people sink in lava?
Nope. It's too dense. You'd be so buoyant you'd just stay on top.
I always thought that it just looks like they sink because their bodies are instantly vaporized at the point where they meet the lava.
Hey, asshole, don't you tell me how dense I am, I'm an AMERICAN
jumps into lava for freedom and sinks
Who you calling buoyant?
I must not watch the right things, I don't recall ever seeing media of a person sinking in lava. The closest was the Terminator being immersed in molten metal, but he was probably more dense than the molten metal being made of room temperature metal
Gollum at the end of Lord of the Rings. Apart from that I'm not sure
I wonder what the surface tension of magma is, anyway thanks, I had forgotten that one
