This morning, as I was scrolling through my WhatsApp (thanks for sharing, friend José Carlos), I stumbled upon a story that immediately captivated my attention. I’m not sure who the author is, but the content is simply delightful. 😂📚🔥What follows is (allegedly) a question from an engineering course exam at a university. The response of one student was so creative that the professor shared it via email with several colleagues. 🎓💡It’s a narrative involving an engineering student and a thought-provoking question about Hell, pondering whether it is exothermic or endothermic. The student’s creatively humorous approach to the professor’s well-founded query stands out for its unexpected originality. 🌡️😆A response that not only reveals a brilliant sense of humor but also an impressive ability to apply technical knowledge in unusual situations. I have added images to better illustrate the narrative. Here is the story that undoubtedly added a touch of lightness and fun to my morning. 🌟📖😁.

Question: Is Hell exothermic (releases heat)…
