Nah I've been a few feet from flowing lava. It's really really hot, but not like, instant death hot.
A few feet, eh? Move one big step closer and tell me how it feels
You can do this for yourself at Volcano national Park in Hawai'i. If they still let people into the lava field. We got close enough to poke the new lava with sticks. It's tolerable unless you make the mistake of standing directly over it. Also if you go take flashlights, it's no fun trying to navigate a lava field by moonlight.
