    Yeah but I am talking about nuking the ring itself. Like you mentioned Sauron is tied to the ring, and destroying the ring will kill him. Would a nuke take out the ring?

      Oh, I was working from your premise that the Ring could survive a nuke. If it can’t, then Sauron is dies too.

      I guess it depends on how the Ring can be destroyed. Is it purely a matter of temperature, or does Mount Doom have some extra special magic?

        My guess is there is some magic involved, but that is pure speculation on my part. Could just be temperature.
