[ link to www.bbc.com (secure)] Extreme heat from the Mount Vesuvius eruption in Italy was so immense it turned one victim's brain into glass, a study has suggested.
The volcano erupted in 79 AD, killing thousands and destroying Roman settlements near modern-day Naples.
The town of Herculaneum was buried by volcanic matter, entombing some of its residents.
A team of researchers has been studying the remains of one victim, unearthed at the town in the 1960s.
A study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Thursday , said fragments of a glassy, black material were extracted from the victim's skull.
Researchers behind the study believe the black material is the vitrified remains of the man's brain.They do not say obsidian Cryonics is super cooling Without combustion
