Uulanbaatorbaby While I knew they were not going to show the guy being burned alive by lava, I admit I was kind of holding my breath for a while there.
Old_Zircon My father is a geologist. He's been around a few active volcanoes, including the Mt. St. Helens eruption. I'm forwarding this to him, but I'm already pretty certain his assessment of the situation will be the same as mine. That being, this guy is an idiot.

Anaxagoras You missed the point. Going to the rim for even 5 seconds makes the guy an idiot. The duration of time that he was there is largely irrelevant.

charmlessman I'm just surprised it only took him 5 minutes of deliberation before he threw the ring into Mordor.
cognitivedissonance If I remember my elementary schoolyard games, and I think I do, what he did here was fail to step on one of the DARK tiles, because the LIGHT tiles are lava.
Rookie mistake.
James Woods According to the soundtrack the scientist was Bstman. No need to worry.
