Nyiragongo Lava in Congo, photographed by Carsten Peter, National Geographic. Horrifying hellfire - I should be able to resist, but I feel the strong urge to get closer. I suppose that’s why the phrase “like a moth to flames” is so apt.
A little fun fact for you: you can’t actually sink into lava. If you were to fall into it, you would float on the top. Additionally, if you were to fall into lava, you wouldn’t be wondering, “Why am I not sinking?” because you’d be in excruciating pain.
