You might burst into flames and burn when you hit the lava/magma’s surface (depending on the type, lava’s temperature ranges from approximately 1,200 to 2,200 degrees). You might also burn before you hit the lava/magma due to the radiant heat.

1000 degrees C is not terribly hot. A simple electrical oven with cheaper ceramic insulation and metallic heating elements works fine up to about 1300 degrees. If you need more, up to about 1500 degrees, you can use silicon carbide elements, and more expensive insulation.

The hottest thing that we know of (and have seen) is actually a lot closer than you might think. It’s right here on Earth at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). When they smash gold particles together, for a split second, the temperature reaches 7.2 trillion degrees Fahrenheit.

Lava won’t kill you if it briefly touches you. You would get a nasty burn, but unless you fell in and couldn’t get out, you wouldn’t die. With prolonged contact, the amount of lava “coverage” and the length of time it was in contact with your skin would be important factors in how severe your injuries would be!

While your lungs would almost undoubtedly be irrevocably charred from the hot air above the lava (assuming relatively static air conditions over the lava), it takes about 80 seconds for the average human to fall unconscious from lack of oxygen, and I highly doubt your body will last that long.

Soldier survives 70-foot fall into active Hawaiia’s Kilauea volcano. A 32-year-old soldier attempting to get a better view inside of Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano fell in Wednesday night, authorities said. He was seriously injured, but survived after falling 70 feet into the volcano’s crater.

Despite their ubiquity all over Hawaii’s Big Island, it’s rare for someone to actually fall into a lava tube, experts have said. But it can happen. And on Monday, police said it happened to an elderly man — in his own backyard. He was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

If inhaled, volcanic ash can cause breathing problems and damage the lungs. Inhaling large amounts of ash and volcanic gases can cause a person to suffocate. Suffocation is the most common cause of death from a volcano.

Unlike the ash produced by burning wood and other organic materials, volcanic ash can be dangerous. Its particles are very hard and usually have jagged edges. As a result, it can cause eye, nose, and lung irritation, as well as breathing problems. Ash can also contaminate water supplies.

In some eruptions, ash particles can be so fine that they are breathed deep into the lungs. With high exposure, even healthy individuals will experience chest discomfort with increased coughing and irritation. Common short-term symptoms include: Throat irritation and sore throat, sometimes accompanied by dry coughing.

If you get ash on your skin, in your eyes, or in your mouth, wash it off as soon as you can. People with heart or lung disease, including asthma, older adults, children, and pregnant women should use special caution around ash.

“Breathing toxic coal ash dust can lead to disease and even death,” said Dr. Silica exposure via coal ash (which can lead to silicosis, a scarring of the lung tissue), exposure to radioactive materials present in coal ash dust and exposure to mercury and hydrogen sulfide are all possible when breathing coal ash dust.

Coal ash commonly contains some of the earth’s deadliest toxics: arsenic, lead, mercury, cadmium, chromium and selenium. storage, and contaminate surface waters and underground aquifers, where they can cause cancer and neurological harm in humans and can poison fish.

Exposure to volcanic ash can trigger asthma attacks and cause wheezing, coughing, and respiratory irritation in individuals with sensitive airways.

Fly ash particles (a major component of coal ash) can become lodged in the deepest part of your lungs, where they trigger asthma, inflammation and immunological reactions. Studies link these particulates to the four leading causes of death in the U.S.: heart disease, cancer, respiratory diseases and stroke.

Fly ash is a compound consisting of silicon dioxide and various other substances and is used in industrial settings to generate electricity. Exposure to fly ash may cause irritation to the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract and even pulmonary fibrosis in humans.

These commonly include bronchitis-like symptoms such as persistent cough, shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. People also suffer from weakness, fatigue, fever, night sweats, leg swelling and bluish discoloration of the lips.

How hot is lava? Lava is extremely hot. Lava can reach temperatures of about 1,250° Celsius.

The highest temperature ever recorded on Earth was 136 Fahrenheit (58 Celsius) in the Libyan desert. The coldest temperature ever measured was -126 Fahrenheit (-88 Celsius) at Vostok Station in Antarctica.

Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where nothing could be colder and no heat energy remains in a substance. By international agreement, absolute zero is defined as precisely; 0 K on the Kelvin scale, which is a thermodynamic (absolute) temperature scale; and –273.15 degrees Celsius on the Celsius scale.

In the Celsius temperature scale, 0oC is the freezing temperature of water, so it is cold.

The world record for the highest recorded temperature was 134 degrees on July 10, 1913, at Greenland Ranch in Death Valley, according to Guinness World Records.

Both the countries are located close to the equator. Generally, Australia is hotter than India, but it is not noticed as much because of the lack of quantity of life that is affected in the central Australian desert.

So, here are the five of the coldest countries in the world!

• Antarctica. Antarctica is the most chilly continent known by the fact.
• Canada. The capital of Canada’s Northwest Territories, Yellowknife is a home to over 20,000 people.
• Kazakhstan.
• Mongolia.
• Russia.

Vostok station, Antarctica This place is famous for being home to the coldest temperature ever recorded on earth – a mind numbing -89.2°C.

Top 10 Coldest Places to Visit in India

• Pahalgam.
• Gulmarg.
• Srinagar.
• Kupwara.
• Kokernag.
• Qazigund.
• Kalpa. Located by the banks of the Sutlej River, the tiny hamlet of Kalpa is in Himachal Pradesh.
• Banihal. Situated at a distance of 35 km from Qazigund in Jammu and Kashmir is the quaint little town of Banihal.

The coldest place in Canada based on average yearly temperature is Eureka, Nunavut, where the temperature averages at −19.7 °C or −3 °F for the year.

Victoria, British Columbia

No matter how you look at it, Victoria, BC on the southern tip of Vancouver Island has less snow than any other city in Canada.

Russia has more land area whereas Canada has more maritime exposure, so it’s clear that the former has colder land areas. More than 60% of the land in Russia is permafrost. As for records, the lowest is in Russia at -71.2 degrees Celsius. The record low in Canada is -63 degrees Celsius.

10 Countries With A Perfect Climate And Low Cost Of Living

• Mexico. Like any country, some parts of Mexico are nicer and safer than others.
• Panama. Just a bit further south is Panama.
• Ecuador. Situated on the equator, Ecuador is a top pick if you really desire warm weather.
• Colombia.
• Costa Rica.
• Malaysia.
• Spain.
• Nicaragua.

The short answer is that Canada can indeed be cold. The good news is that the vast majority of people in Canada do not live in the really cold parts! Yes, most of Canada’s biggest cities experience rather extreme winters, but the memes misrepresent this. Most of the time, we are not drowning in snow and ice.

Because of its location north of the Equator, it does experience cold weather. However, because of its size, it has many different climates. Just imagine, its southern border lies in the same latitude as sunny northern California, while its northern border is near the frigid arctic.

Canada’s North is very cold and dry with very little precipitation, ranging from 10-20 cm a year. Temperatures average below freezing most of the year. And it’s huge: this polar desert covers one seventh of Canada’s total land mass.

Toronto is colder than New York (yes, as several posters stated, a quick look on the Wiki pages for both cities — check the “climate” sections — will tell you the average temperatures for each city.)

Toronto has four distinct seasons: summer, fall, winter, and spring, much like other North American cities like Montreal, Chicago, or New York City.

The nickname “The Big Apple” originated in the 1920s in reference to the prizes (or “big apples”) rewarded at the many racing courses in and around New York City. However, it wasn’t officially adopted as the city’s nickname until 1971 as the result of a successful ad campaign intended to attract tourists.
