@@justawildgengar I don't think the variables are well enough defined and the scenario doesn't make sense. Water reaches boiling point but not all water only surface water not under pressure in the scenario? Same applies to the body and most objects, just because the temperature hits 212 doesn't mean the entire object would boil instantly only the surface.

Idea about Universe : What if a Black Hole with smaller mass collided with a Star with bigger mass than the Black Hole itself (Example the Black Hole with a three times the mass of sun, the smallest mass of black hole ever known, collided with the star Betelgeuse that has eleven times the mass of Sun. Or more easier, just a Star with a mass of 6 times the Sun, twice of the black hole.)

If the Earth's surface reached the boiling point for 5 seconds, it would have a catastrophic effect on the planet and all forms of life. The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at sea level, so such a temperature increase would instantly vaporize all the oceans and bodies of water, causing massive flooding, landslides, and tsunamis. The heat would also ignite forest and urban fires, destroying habitats and causing massive damage to the environment. The heat would also cause the atmosphere to expand, which could cause the Earth's crust to crack, leading to massive earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. All living organisms would be instantly killed, including humans and all other forms of life on land, in the oceans and in the air. The heat would also cause the destruction of buildings, infrastructure, and all human-made structures. This scenario is extremely unlikely to happen, as the Earth's temperature is regulated by a complex system of natural processes that help to balance the temperature and prevent such extreme changes. It's important to note that this scenario is purely hypothetical and that the possibility of Earth's surface reaching boiling point is extremely unlikely, as the conditions and parameters that allow Earth to have a suitable temperature for life as we know it, are not present in such scenario.
