Preparation steps for safely drinking lava:

  1. Obtain lava.
  2. Allow to cool to room temperature
  3. Use a hammrer and food processor to reduce to a fine powder
  4. Add water and stir until you have a drinkable slurry
  5. Die anyway because drinking glass shards is still really bad for you.

Don't listen to this guy. Over-processing the lava ruins it. You have to drink raw lava straight from the source to get the full benefit, otherwise you might as well just go chew on a chunk of pumice like a chump.

Yes except WE get the benefits of this guy drinking lava

Oof... Post mortem, even. Like a final ultimate humiliation to punish you for this utterly stupid endeavour.

Big Nature: I don’t care if you fuck around with me, (motions to a Gympie Gympie tree) but you might.

All of Australia seems like Mother Earth's way of saying "fuck around and find out".

If you drink lava. You’ll never need to drink anything else the rest of your life.

I trust science. That geologist said to not drink lava so I won't drink water ever again!

cries about it

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 12 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Best of luck. I’m honestly wondering how you’d even do it. Like what kind of device could you even use to get lava to your mouth?

[–] DasFaultier@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Pfft, nice try with your Big Geology propaganda! That device is called "a spoon". 🤡

Seriously though, I would assume that foundries use suitable tooling, because they have to handle the molten metal and take samples.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

foundries use suitable tooling

Sure, but since none of them are built in active volcanoes, they're not using those tools to handle lava.

And they're DEFINITELY not using them to transport anything into the mouths of people 😄

[–] DasFaultier@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

They don't need to be built in active volcanoes like the one ring, they just need to be able to withstand the heat for a limited amount of time.

Your convent peaked my interest, so I searched for the temperatures of lava and molten steel. Turns out (and I didn't expect this at all): lava is 700-1300°C, steel is 1300-1500°C. I expected lava to be somewhere around 2500-3000 °C, so i thought you would have to be quicker than foundry personnel. Instead, you would have even more time than with molten steel to get a cut of fresh lava straight from the vulcano and drink it.

"Binging with Babish" made "Lava Chicken" inspired by the Minecraft movie. He went to a college campus where an art professor made a custom device that, technically if you wanted to, would allow you to pour lava into a person's mouth.

Example of pouring lava on chicken

A hotly contested topic

We haven't heard anything from Lava Drinker! He's been taken out by Big Rock for telling the truth! /s

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I second people drinking lava. We have to clean up the gene pool any way we can.

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Hmm, why should we trust Big comment?

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

probably high in minerals and nutrients, big pharma doesn't want you to know the truth!!

[–] ThatGuyNamedZeus@feddit.org 4 points 4 days ago

So when the media said grains were good for you and meat was bad for you, was that a lie?...it was.

I eat a lot of meat and I gained a lot of muscle really fast when I started working out just twice a week

It will make you have to go to the bathroom. I mean, it just goes right through you.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 1 points 4 days ago

This is far too close to reality
