This is a bizarre claim. It appears to be based on a video in which a durian is briefly exposed to a 3300 degree torch. Anything more than that would obviously reduce the whole fruit to char.
Yeah, it doesn’t withstand it, it just burns slowly because of moist in it. So even less would be enough, given time
I hate when my durian doesnt burn cause it got the moist in it :(
Stop. Please, sir. The joke is already dead!
Char, just like how heat shields used to reenter the earths atmosphere work
I feel like we are ignoring the evaporative power of moisture that the fruit, and not the steel beam, can utilize. Metal transforms along the entire heating process, the durian will evaporate until a husk and then immediately be immolated.
It’s also why a solid wood beam does better in a fire than steel. Once the outside is charred it shields the inside and the beam can keep a good bit of its strength before eventually failing once the outer layers get burned through. The steel heats up quickly and goes soft long before its melting point.
Jet fuel can’t melt wood beams!
Help me name the sci-fi novella I’m (totally) going to write about durian panspermia.

Left hand of Durian got me.
Not for “some reason”. It’s out of spite.
The fire does not want to go near the smell
Which is probably also the reason for the smell
Evil fruit born in hellfire.
Me: getting on the MRT with a delicious durian
The Singaporean passengers : You can’t bring that on board lah! There is a 500SGD fine!
Me: if you think that smells bad , check this out *heats durian to 3000°C*So you’re telling me I can’t burn all these durians? Now what am I going to do with them?
Eat them all and temporarily increase your maximum heart containers.
Send them to med school so they can get a job at Sacred Heart.
Nuke them from orbit. Only way to be safe
The durian mostly come out at night. Mostly.
you have to be prepared for global warming
