      I like all YouTube videos of lava that are made responsibly – don’t forget it’s super dangerous!!!! I really like the videos of lava that was made in a lab in Syracuse University in the USA by a scientist and artist working together – they are amazing!! I’m not sure if that is the one you are talking about, but they do pour the lava over ice and it’s awesome!! The reason I like it so much is that is shows the brilliant science you can do in a safe environment, but also how beautiful and wierd science can be – I mean there is a bit where the ice looks like it’s on fire! Also it’s a great chance to test ideas that scientists would have very limited opportunity to test in any other way.
