No one ever said he fell into lava, not ever.
Why would you say that??
I remember hearing a long time ago that he fell into lava. Were these just rumors that were going around in certain circles or what?
Previous page Master r8hitman.
I typed a passage from the ROTJ novel.
Ben tells Luke that Anakin fell into a molten pit etc, etc....
same difference as far as I'm concerned!

I always pictured the fight being on the black/brown rock/dirt ground of Mustafar. The fight would lead up the hill so that Obi-wan could cut Anakin in half and Anakin would fall over the cliffside and into a lake of lava. Just sayin.

Everyone assumes that Anakin would have to fall into a lava lake. What if he fell into one or two feet of lava? That could be pretty cool and realistic. The only things that had to be saved for him to survive are his heart, some lung and his head. Of course, he would also keep his mechanical hand to crawl away.

I always thought it to be unrealistic for Anakin to survive a lava bath, so I was very relieved to see that it was the intense heat that burned him up in the actual film.

The ROTJ novel also says that Owen Lars is Obi-Wan's brother.

As JMN77 first quoted, the RotJ novel does say Anakin fell into the lava. When I first read the novelization, I was asking myself, "How the heck are they going pull that off?" Then I saw RotK and thought Lucas might do it a different way. At that point, I didn't think RotS would get a PG-13 rating. I thought if they Anakin DID fall into the pit, it would be a Sithly transformation. Being reborn of flame, fire, everything that symbolizes power and hate. However, I'm very happy with the end results. Works to the films benefit. (My two creds...  )

With all due respect Qui-Gon Kim I'm well aware of that.
If you read the exchange, you'll note that I'm responding to
Rolando's assertion that it was NEVER stated that Anakin fell
into lava. I was just proving that it has been stated.

Dude, if he fell in lava, his whole body would disintegrate instantly.

Are you upset that Anakin didn't fall in lava?
But he did. He did. He loved Padme very much.
Oh, wait. It says lava, not love. Nevermind.

Growing up, My friends older brother told me that Anakin fell into a volcano, onto a ledge inside the volcano (not into lava)and was crushed by the falling rock on which he stood before it caved in (while fighting Obi Wan, who did not fall in). Hence the rock crushed his legs,(and possible arms) and broke his ribs, severely damaging his lungs, which was why he needed a "walking iron lung". Never in my childhood did I hear he fell directly into lava.
This would have worked for the film too, but the way Lucas did it was masterful. I would not have wanted it any other way.

What's the problem? Anakin did fall into lava. When first struck down, he fell along the shore, but because he was unable to climb out, he slid into the lava and caught fire. Based on Anakin's scars at the end of RotJ, I had expected him to get a lightsaber cut on his head, but I wouldn't say I was disappointed that it didn't turn out that way.

Anakin's clothing is what originally catches on fire and then it consumes him. The scarring and gashes on his head are caused from extreme cracking from the skin just getting destroyed by the fire. Sorry if that's not fun to listen to but it's true.
