    Likely asphyxiation, and not the pleasant, “drift off on a carbon monoxide high” kind of asphyxiation. The “oh God, my lungs are melting and I can’t breathe” kind of asphyxiation. The only hope is that it got hot fast enough that her brain melted before her lungs, so she didn’t have time to understand the pain. All in all, it’s not a good way to go.

        Yeah, the only way someone is dying in a furnace before feeling pain is if you’re dealing with molten-metal-type temperatures. Not a bakery oven. I’m sure this poor woman experienced excruciating pain for far too long.

          I work at one of those furnaces, if you fall in molten metal it will not be fast. You are EXTREMELY buoyant in liquid rock/metal.
