It's worse because you lose all your items.
I was looking for this
*cough* *cough* keep inventory *cough*
That's why you don't dig straight down.
Lol
You lose all your souls and can’t get them back regardless because the sweat pyromancy ain’t do shit to save yo ass
conclusion: Don’t dig straight down
Minecraft laws
Click OnThis instead of that dig up
One simple law when mine in minecraft
Don't dig straight up or down
M I N E D I A M O N D S
It's ok you'll respond
3:48 He just compared us to trash... Accurate
@Logan Durland Suche spellinge...
I'll let you know one thing...
I'm not trash!
Hahaaa... that was not trash but a goat in a bag...
What the hell is that white dot?
Vsauce, thor here
Avox Yeah, his Vsauce impression is a little on the nose.
In Revenge of the Sith, Anakin and Obi-wan should've both died when they were fighting over the lava, just from breathing in the volcanic fumes.
Not to mention the intense heat they're a few inches from.
Star Gamer 3120 fumes and heat are insignificant next to the power of the force. The power of your argument is weak old man
nahor88 I find your lack of faith disturbing.
because jedis
The force. I win.
What if you have the high ground
Lucas Dunker don't do it
Dont underestimate my power
Then it's over... Anakin...
YOU WHERE LIKE A BROTHER TO ME, ANAKIN
I HATE YOUUUUUUUU *burns in lava*
Actually, I kind of imagined that dying by lava would be one of the worst things possible. It's kind of reassuring how quickly I would die.
Russell Zetterlund yeah and you wouldn't feel most of it because your nerves would burn off
Dude i died by lava and lost all my stuff, was the worst
@@marvinhanson9391 feels bad man. My fortune 3 pick and 18 diamonds with my full set of diamond armor..
Very reassuring
@@youngmoney4693 Well, at best, it would take some fraction of a second before your nerves were flash-fried, so you'd have perhaps one single burst of extreme pain. But you're brain & cerebral fluids would also expand (your skull would contain that pressure for a brief time before exploding) like in a pressure cooker pretty much immediately after that anyway. No doubt that it would be a *quick* death, but maybe not quite quick enough to feel *nothing* before you're done...As in, well done.
0.o
So you mean to tell me that if I jumped into lava in a volcano, I would:
- Have my lungs vaporized on the way down
- All my nerves would be burnt up before I touched down
- My eyes would boil like eggs and turn into steam
- EVERY bone in my body would break as they pierced into the lava
- I would be trapped underneath it for a few seconds before popping back out
- And then what's left of my corpse would zip around the surface of the lava like Mario Kart.
Why don't they add THIS Minecraft update?
Caves and cliffs update really got gruesome
5:01
In short: Lava bad. Lava very bad. Do not lava. Never lava.
Edit 1 year later: why did this get so many goddamn likes
+Noah Davis (Nodo Bird) But what if I want to lava with my lava?
Krump Then you'll have to either lava in not-lava or learn your lava bad the hard way.
+Noah Davis (Nodo Bird) Instructions un-clear; Lava stuck inside of other lava while lavaing because i lavaed.
KittycatGamerPro LAVA BAD. YOU NEVER LAVA. YOUR LAVA LAVAD IN LAVA BECAUSE YOU LAVAD. GOSH.
+Noah Davis (Nodo Bird) Congratulations everyone.
why is thor teaching me science
cus vikings
+sebastian svensson no, this thor didnt make the cast. too scrawny
+a bit legit I'm dead xD
+a bit legit because internet.
And making impressions.
4:52 "you would die before you touch the lava"
Depends how fast you are falling.
Too true hahaha 😂
ANAKIN?!
This guy looks like the default nord in Skyrim.
lmao
+Carl Edward Sagan dude lol
+Carl Edward Sagan i was thinking thor but default nord will do
Wow he does look Nordic skyrim , lol I can imagine him sitting around the campfire putting the unintelligent warriors to sleep with nerd science fact then they bully him with a loin clothe wedgie until the Dragon comes around for lunch.
+Carl Edward Sagan OMFG ahaha!
My dad was telling me a story that his friend(that was a long retired steel mill worker) told him. So my dads friend was working at a Pittsburgh steel mill, and he noticed that there was a pair of boots and a wallet on one of the overhead beams. And then he looked over onto a beam directly above a vat of molten steel and saw that there was a man standing there, and before he could let an operator now he was there, he jumped into the steel and, his words, "fell onto it like it was concrete and disintegrated into dust". He had left his boots and wallet on the beams so they could be found and he could be identified and his family be compensated for his death. He said it was one of the worst things that he had ever seen.
that's crazy. so the guy did suicide?
+The Zoombot28 No, the lava nurdered him. Lavacide worst way to die trust me my dad is a lava doctor
Had no idea lava needed medical care.
beaconrider hahaha
That's so metal! \m/
And that's why you use a fire resistance potion kids
Just to be a little more certain, also have a Ring of Fire Resistance on your finger. Add as many layers of protection that you can...
I think that would be worse. Without fire resistance you almost insta die barely feeling pain. With fire resistance you would survive a few more seconds in extreme pain before you die anyways.
I mean, how much fire resistance would you need to actually survive? And even if you survived, would your body still be okay? Or kinda burnt? I prefer just to insta die xD
How could you forget the subway scene from "Volcano". Had to listen to the man screaming for nearly 20 seconds after he jumped into that pool of lava.
I couldn't remember if it was volcano or the other one with Brosnan i think? Something peak? Anyways, thanks. Haha
@@pickinpickens2291 Dante's peak I think
@@pickinpickens2291 Brosnan?Not with Tommy Lee Jones,where they realized there is a literal river of lava just "running" in the sewer system?
This one has stuck with me for years. I was like, “Jesus, he’s burning alive and trying to walk on it! Ahh, now he’s fallen onto it and still not dead yet!”
That's how i always pictured death by lava
This was a good way to start my Monday
Thanks for watching!
same here. it made me laugh.
+Zein Miftah yep
Or wednesday from the future
Ugh. Monday, death by lava amirite?
Does this mean that the mario games actually got it right?
oh my god yes HAHAHAHAHA
Super Mario 64 at least...
shannon felton omg I think your right
shannon felton LOZ: twilight princess
MAH BUTT.
IT *BURRRNZZZZZ.*
I apologize for that.
The comment section on literally every one of his videos ever:
10% useful comments
90% "hahaha you look like Thor"
There is no such thing as a "useful comment"
You forgot the percentage for Minecraft comments
@@StarRider253 I beg to differ. People asking questions and making corrections are useful comments because they deepen your understanding of the subject.
Is what you do amazing?
Nah, there's always going to be some small percentage that would reverse that & say that Thor looks like Kyle...
...Like I just did...
I literally asked google
“Has anyone died in lava”
Because I didn’t think anyone would be dumb enough to go near lava.
My brain forgot Volcanos exist XD
There has been accidents in places with molten metals that has resulted in peoples death as well. Ok time for bed now 😓
Best gore a man jumped into molten metal steel which is about the same consistency as molten liquid rock in the lava pools
Why is Thor doing science?
Exactly
+paul hardman hahahah I was thinking the same thing
+paul hardman Finally figured out the Bifrost wasnt magic, but science :O
+paul hardman *smashes video on floor* Another!
same
I can honestly say I never thought death by lava would be all that great to start with. I figured it would be like a mixature of being set on fire put in boiling water and drowning all at the same time.
Negasonic Teenage Warhead
Suffering in agony as you are quickly and literally melted and burned away.
your nerves would be destroyed in seconds so you would be in agony for maybe a few seconds and dead shortly after.
Well Thanks, That cheered me right up. Now I'm way less worried about throwing myself into a volcano. :D
WAIT WAS HE WRITING ON THE BOARD BACKWARDS THAT WHOLE TIME
good point
Believe that’s how the works.
Either that or he is left handed and flips the video.
He always is.
John Ingram He’s right handed. The video is flipped when he writes words, and not flipped when drawing
That Smeagol impression was actually pretty good.
The real question is "Is lava wet?"
Please no
ModzByDemi - Could be not wet but is defenally .. "Hot" 😏😏😏😂
Its hot and moist
If wetness refers to how liquid something is, it depends on the type of rocks on the lava and its current temperature.
No.
So lemme get this straight
Not only would you float on top,
You may also *skid* across the surface like satan himself chose you as his skipping stone?
Your skin decides melting off is *much* to cliché and instead goes " No, *I shall b o i l* "
Jumping in causes you to literally pull a mario in bowser's castle
Except you shatter every bone in your body so you come back up as a deformed blobfish of a fireball
Before all this though, most importantly,
*what do you mean the lungs e v a p o r a t e*
Your lungs are goey, ultramoist, and mostly made of water. At this temperature, the hot air would instantly vaporize them, turning them gazeous in a blink.
I'm more curious about what happens to your brain... Granted, I kinda feel like between the extreme heat plus the moisture it's guaranteed to 'pop', but my question is more 'Would the heat kill your ability to register pain before you finish your lovely phoenix-dive'?
Almost everything you can think about can be turned into a solid a liquid and gas... With the lungs not being an exception! They would litteraly be gas in like no time at all!
Yeah, I know ! It's just that, typically, since they're almost pure water, your lungs are the most sensitive part to high temperature - cold air will freeze your lungs long before your skin for example ! But what about the eyeball ? Are they closer to the lungs or skin... ?
Lbx best comment ever
That was a great Gollum impression. It needs to reappear more often.
For anyone wondering.
The scream at 4:23 it's called the "Howie Scream" :)
so this is what thor does in his spare time interesting
Daniel Ruiz shut the fuck up
the meme lord GAMEZ rude
Wolf PlayzGamez how?
Guys, its sarcasm. Its sad to what this world has become...
But do you know what im doing in my freetime >:D
Why is Thor trying to teach me science?
Koko Sensei because Asgard SAT is coming up at the end of the sem..
You study for that Groot elective yet?
I think he looks more like James Hetfield in the 90s than Thor
I'm dead😂
how else do you think he flies? velocity bro
Wouldn't Golem's death actually be pretty quick? I imagine he'd just die on impact from a fall like that onto a surface as dense as that.
Edit: Nevermind, you covered that.
Just imagine seeing someone just fall into lava and then seeing them skip across the lava
Imagine tho
What doesn't kill you makes you into an evil cyborg
or goku hisssssss
+SlashMan.EXE LOL!!!
+Tactical Kyuubi goku died to save his sole several times.
+horny turtle its a joke for leafy is here til a tequila
+SlashMan.EXE >_> not saying i'm not a evil cyborg or anything
great gollum impression
right!!
Why he didn't do it before
Lol it sounded like stitch
hand222
+Solluxander Captor not jar jar binks then
The movie Volcano, with everyone's favorite Alien Immigration Control Agent, has what i feel are some of the most accurate depictions of death by volcanic activity. Especially those first 4, who died so tragically from super heated gasses.
I clicked for lava facts.
I stayed for vegan Thor and Peter Parkers lovechild.
Video is 100% wrong. If someone jumped into lava they would sink because of their giant steel balls.
Thor after Jane turns him into a Nordic Nerd.
SERN Steins;Gate fan? 😂
Bruh
SERN nerdic
SERN XD
yeah, I was pretty pleased, nice suggestion TH-cam
This is my first video of yours and I automatically subscribed. Love this!
I enjoyed your Sméagol... “Gollum! [hairball] Gollum!”
I don't think anyone thought death by lava would be pleasant.
+Rensune WHAT!!!!
+Rensune you're kidding? i thought it would be one of the more euphoric experiences in life.
+Rensune It would be pretty quick. You would explode due to boiling blood and turn to ash in seconds due to the insane heat of actual flowing (orange) lava.
Why? A hot bath have never hurt anyone before, right? RIGHT?!
Moonman First off, I'm no kid. Second, do you have something against disabled people?
Why is Thor teaching us about lava?
lol
dadey1000 because science apparently .
no idea.
Because Surtur trys to kick his ass with it in Thor Ragnarok, so he's teaching us so we can help join in the fight against him
Savage mode: on
4:20 I laughed harder than I should have.
Great presentation. The music added a chill factor as well.
why is Thor talking to me about dying in lava?
Lol.
+Cheetos Christ Because he's swam in it.
Because he is an educathor
+PopTartNeko good one
+PopTartNeko how do I like this comment?
Im gonna go jump in a volcano and see if the data is correct..
+Jeff Albertson I dieded..
+Justin H. interesting
+Justin H. interesting...
And how did that made you feel?
+Ricardo alves I returned as a solid meme and just my hands ars able to move thats how I'm able to accurately type this response. . :)
k, how was your test?
Your Gollum impression is really, really good.
Thank you science Thor
Very cool
I learned one thing in this video...
Thor can mimic Gollum and T-800.
Thors giving us an inside in Holly wood
lmao
your wrong the true thor is a ginger with a beard XD
Grammer nazi 😂😂😂😂😂
+Yousuf Ahmed I wasnt the only one :p
+Bengt Svenson *Grammar Nazi.
How have I not seen this before now? Those impersonations were awesome!
This is one of my favourites so far 👍 great work
Thor?
Hi dad! im da... wait....
Thors little 'PUNY' brother
Sarah Barton thats baby thor for you
Blind?
Depends wholly on it's density seeing as molten rock cannot be either worthy or unworthy of anything
I've played minecraft, trust me, I know how horrible it is to die in lava.
😂
No you don't, because you're still alive
Pancake how do you know he's not a ghost ? HMMM? HmmMMMMMM????
james wasda just after finding a shit ton of diamonds
aaaauuuaaAGHHAAHHHHHAAGHHAHAHHHHHAHHAHHHHHHH Triggered comment.
2:07 coach steves hormone monster...
weird that I was thinking about this last night and today this video shows up on my feed.
"Liquid Hot MAGMA!"
Akuma this needs more likes
Austin powers
the ring would not sink instantly because of surface tension
the molten lava has a very high surface tension and the outer layer is thicker and colder than the inner
the ring also has very little weight to push through the surface
I'm holding out for some liquid hot smegma
One Meelleeion Dollars!!!!
Dude the Golum impression...just wow.
its gollum with 2 l's. :3
Kai Barber i hate you
Magicses - love it
I almost threw things at the screen the first time I saw Gollum sink while the One Ring floated.
OMG! that was the best golum impersonation I have ever seen! 😁
So if you jump into a volcano, hold your breath.
+Kaynos If you're going for the lava, don't hold it. Unless you want to die very, very painfully.
+Shiro Nogitsune You'd be dead anyways. The human brain is not equipped to handle high temperatures. That's what happened in Pompeii. They got hit by a high temperature air blast that was so hot they literally just stopped being alive. Or, you could wind up like in Herculaneum, where the air was so hot that the small amounts of water in their sinuses boiled and literally exploded their skulls from the inside.
DisabledBiscuit Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that. Poor sods.
+DisabledBiscuit Interesting facts, thank you. I thought the Pompeii people suffocated before dying...
+David Linkan Oh no. Pyroclastic flows are insanely hot. At their absolute coolest, they're about 400 degrees Fahrenheit, enough to easily cook you, but most of them are closer to 1,800 degrees Farenheit.
Depending on the temperature, you might be like the Pompeii people and die instantly with little damage to your body, though you'd probably be missing your lungs, or you could be like the Herculaneum people and have the skin vaporized off your body.
Either way, you definitely die from cooking. They definitely didn't live long enough to suffocate, which is a small mercy.
Okay, you convinced me. Gotta plan out a different way to make a dramatic self-sacrifice.
Lol
Sacrificial daggers have worked before they can work again
There's always a suicide vest
Actually, there's a much better way to do that, it's really simple. You only have to kill 20 people, then activate the nuke, it would kill every single enemy, including yourself.
Oh you meant in real life, nevermind then.
@@simonpetrikov3992 lamp oil, rope, bombs *explodes*
He looks like Tom Cruise with Thor hair.
Yes :I
True
lmfao
*hipster Thor
+Marcos Recio It's like Interview with a Vampire
That was a really good Gollum impression. There is a superhero book called prepare to die that has the heroes running on top of the lava as it burns his legs. The audio book guy also does video game voices.
Playing "The floor is lava" just got that much more terrifying.
Why is Thor talking 'bout dyig in lava? I mean, he survived a netron star laser...
Is this a reference to when the got blasted by the star back to the forge or whatever in infinity war? Plz no mean comments, I don't watch that much marvel movies
Veyron XY Yes
shoild have watched lord of the rings before seeing this...
should
its a sin you havent watched Lord Of the Rings before
+Pure Orange Im sorry i just didnt had the time
Ricardo alves take a sick day or something, its worth it
should*
I absolutely love the show and I love watching daily as I always learn something new.
Btw your Golem voice sounded like the old hormone monster from big mouth 😂 I'm literally crying x
How about the scene in “Volcano” when the guy jumps into lava from the train?? Great scene!!
Is that Thor
Recipies For Dummies finally someone mentioned this
like Thors soft little brother
Recipies For Dummies that ain't Thor that's THORS Mama!
Recipies For Dummies yes
He's jacksepticThor
all these science facts are cool...but the most impressive part of all these videos is how this guy writes everything backwards.. sometimes even with both hands at the same time... kinda dope when u think about it
The video is horizontally flipped.
MrJreed1000 you sir, aint too clever...
i7fa
MrJreed1000 the camera make everything reverse go normal
lol 192 people are dumbos
Kyle your impressions are so good and funny
First of your videos I have watched...suscribed because of the great sciency...(sciency... sciences..not sure) stuff and excellent humor too. You look like you are having fun, so makes it more genuine..
You look like Thor
Thor and Jake from Vsauce2
If Thor only ate gluten-free
kura paska Hahahah shut the fuck up.
I just was on my way to write the exact same thing
You misspelled *Joe Dirt* don't worry I got you.
His gollum is good.
+jinitron Smeagol wasn't good, Gollum was just worse.
+jinitron *clap* *clap* *clap*
+DirtyVenom Elmo corrupt.
Tru dat
It sounds like stitch
In the Lord of the Rings books I think the One Ring melted as soon as it hit the lava but in the movies they had it float on Gollum’s ashes for a minute to leave the audience in suspense which was a cool effect on Peter Jackson’s part
His Golem impression is fantastic.
What if a rock fell into a pool of molten people?
+Marc Dudlee depending on the rock it would either crush a person and then melt or just melt when it lands on the ground missing a person
+Marc Dudlee And what if The Rock fell into a pool of molten people?
+Soku he qould probably convert in to one of those melting ppl.
btw i did saw what you did theereee
+Soku Then he would do the people's burning elbow.... or kind of.
+Soku You might be able to smell what he's cooking.
Holy shit, your Gollum impersonation was perfect.
Eric Bauer not really. Know at least 2 people personally who do it better. He just impersonated stitch from the Disney movie.
J Berries blah blah blah
Dan Carlo not true, i know atleast 3 people personally who also disagrees
No it fucking was not
TheFlyingEpergne seemed pretty good to me. Not perfect but pretty damn good.
“Oh wait no! I wouldnt sink, I’d just stay here!” Lmbo haha
The golem voice is priceless
That was a rather good Gollum impression.
I agree
I come to rewatch this video just for this impression
Reminded me more of JarJar
and one of the worst Arnold impersonations
Pff anyone can play in lava or eat lava.... but only once.
A. B. 😂😂😂... this comment is genius
A. B. If you eat lava it would just go trou your tung and jaw
Man I just watch the temple of doom a couple hours ago and you're talking about it. I know this was recorded years ago, but my timing of watching the movie and then clicking on this very video in the same night! Cool :)
That Smeagle/Gollum impression is great
You missed the greatest chance ever to show scrooge McDuck diving into his money when you talked about jumping into metal :)
john tucker 😂😂
I think family guy already did that
the Arnold, ehh
the gollum, freaky good
I thought it was the other way around lol. His Gollum sounds more like Stitch.
yep
Your Gollum impression was on point
I SO want to see a scene where someone that has jumped, fallen or been thrown into molten metal skitters across the top of it screaming...would be one of the best comedic death scenes ever....

After watching this, waking up early for work doesn't seem so bad.
so, does that mean that Anakin's "death" was realistic? i mean, he fell into lava, but didn't sink...
When did he die and when did he fell into it
@@FuturPaladin489 he didn't die per se, and it was in star wars episode 3 at the final fight of the movie. he was burned to a crisp, not literally, and then was surgically altered with his now famous suit that turned him to Darth Vader.
@@ahedjehad8514 yeah but i was like 10cm away from it
There are actually people that have fallen into molten metal and been pulled back out that did not die immediately because of the gas reaction you described. So idk.
Really? I would be interested to look into that. Do you know where to find reports of such things?
Croaking Frog yea look it up. Its essentially like falling on a bed of zillion degree bed of coals.
Mythbuster show once the effect. They had molten Metal, but before they force their hand inside, they bath it in generic water
No dmg at all
Tfw anakin skywalker’s experience on mustafar was probably the most accurate depiction of what would happen to you near lava
PopDatPeridot69
They’d be dead as soon as they got even close to the lava, not the way it happened at the end. Their clothing would have ignited as well as the vaporizing of their organs. That’s the scary thing with lava. It doesn’t have to even touch you.
You forget, HE WAS THE CHOSEN ONE!
I don't know...the lava had the high ground. ;)
Trevor Muse hurr durr no because they are force sensitive so the force protects them from anything outside the main plot
Nahhh both would be dead from breathing in such heat.
Yeah, I always took the Ring staying up as long as it did (even seemingly cooling the lava underneath it for a moment) it fighting to stay in the world.
This video was in my "watch later" list for 2 years.
one could argue you'd probably die from the shock and pain long before you sink
no you'd die by explosion instantly
We're all dead it just hasn't happened yet
Ha that Louis C.K reference
he said the heat would burn your lungs before you hit it
One could also argue that you would die from a perforated colon from the sexually deprived unicorns that live below the surface of lava #MrHands
Don't take this the wrong way, but you look like a more feminine version of Thor
But i guess it's not hard to be more feminine than Thor, 'cause Thor's pretty manly
I was think that too!!!
+courgeonaute Thor isn't manly. Thor is... cinematic :/
Honestly Gollum was probably so happy to have the Ring back that he never even noticed.
The real question i had about this video is how did u get your hair to maintain that shape what did u use and how?
