Is it a curse that makes one specific chicken follow them around, or does it bring along a new chicken if the current one gets killed? Because I'm thinking about restaurant opportunities here.

New chickens, AND they all taste terrible. Amusingly, they specifically address this.

Isn't that the guy that Tony killed by setting his armor on fire? Turns out titanium burns real good :stare:

Yeah, he had Tony in a bear hug and all he could do to escape was to blast his boot thrusters at max power to try and break loose, which eventually ignited the suit and that was the end of that.

If memory serves it was especially bad because titanium fires can't be extinguished by water and they burn insanely hot. I don't recall how Tony put out the fire but I want to say he pulled them both into space to deny the fire oxygen. Tony made it but the dude in the Titanium Man suit was extra crispy.

Burning titanium will react violently with the steam generated by being at 600C, liberating oxygen to sustain oxidation and hydrogen to add to the explody part.

Right, I get that, but is it capable of burning without oxygen once it gets going?

I went to the Chemistry thread to ask! :science:

The Lone Badger posted:

Titanium can burn underwater by stripping the oxygen from water molecules. The normal way to extinguish metal fires is either to smother them (sand, chemical foam) or cool them (expanding CO2). It's not easy though.

EDIT: That thread's a lot of fun, if you're prepared to learn how much Nitrogen hates you.

If you're that smart that you can build a working suit made out of titanium, you can't be shocked or upset about dying a violent burning death.

Gremlin, being a dwarf, would actually just sit in the chest cavity of the armor, so no problem with having all his limbs broken.
