don't understand this...why leave your car behind?


Insurance perhaps. I could have used a lava flow back in the day for my 1993 Sundance.

Question for the chemistry folks

Would it be engulfed and intact or would it heat up and become molten?

Wonder if insurance covers lava damage


What lava damage. I dont know where the car is. I think it was stolen.

Is progressive going to jackhammer around the flow and look for it.

You can get pretty close to it and it moves very slow.

The danger is one of those bubbles popping and getting flying lava on you.

Steal melts at about 2800 degrees so the frame and shell will probably remain. Aluminum melts at something like 900* and brass at like 2200*. Any of those metals will melt, I'd think...

Went to get his hose to spray the street down in an effort to cool it and stop the flow.

Reminds me of the steamroller scene in Austin Powers.

The car is actually screaming: NOOOOOOOOO!
