War (the card game)

100

Imagine you're locked in a cell, deep underground. The door has been locked, and the key melted. The walls and door are made of a combination of hard stone and steel. There are no windows, and the floor is lava. You're standing right in the middle on a tiny, sinking pedestal an inch above the lava. The roof is about to collapse on top of you and crush you into pieces of rubble, and the slightly movement will accelerate its collapse. How do you escape (alive)?

Stop imagining.
